1 Peter 2:9. But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people;
These are wonderful epithets that are here heaped upon believers. May we have the grace to be able to appropriate them, and to expound them in our lives!
1 Peter 2:9. That ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
See where you once were, and see also to what you have been called by God’s grace: "out of darkness into light." That is not all: into His light. Even that is not all: "into his marvellous light." The light of the gospel is full of wonders. As common light is made up of many colors, so the light of God’s grace is made up of many marvellous colors, - the colors of all the attributes of God.
