PRECIOUS TREASURES
1 Peter 1:7
Precious- "of great price, costly valuable, very dear, highly
esteemed, expensive People and temporal things are said to
be precious to us; yet, how much more precious to us should
things of a spiritual nature be. Peter love to use this word
in his epistles. Note Peter's precious treasures:
1. Precious trials 1 Peter 1:7
2. Precious blood 1 Peter 1:18-19
3. Precious corner stone
1 Peter 2:4,6
4. Precious Lord 1 Peter 2:7
5. Precious faith 2 Peter 2:7
6. Precious promises 2 Peter 1:4
7. Precious death Psalm 116:15
The last verse is not from Peter, but should be included in
our list of precious things serving, as it does, as the final
evaluation of the things of this life. It is a precious,
comforting thought to know that "to be absent from the body
is to be present with the Lord." (2 Corinthians 5:8)
