1 Peter 1:1-2
 
Remember whose you are.
 
What will happen when we truly LIVE SENT?  If we take the mission of Jesus Christ seriously, then God’s word promises that people will be changed by the power of the gospel.  But there is a warning as well.  The world loves darkness more than light.  When we step up to be witnesses for Christ, when we step forward to make disciples, when we LIVE SENT we will be opposed.  How can we prepare ourselves for such an opposition?  The answer comes from the pen of the apostle Peter.  Peter wrote his letter to people scattered in churches throughout Asia enduring persecution for their faith.  He opens his letter to this persecuted people and to us with one important truth: remember whose you are!
