1 Peter 2:9 confirms who we are in Christ: “But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.” As this chosen, set apart, commissioned people, we are called to bring the good news of salvation to dark corners of the world.
