The Bride’s Holy Life

By: Brad Jordan Scripture: 1 Peter 1:13-21; Luke 1:67-75 Series: The Bride Made Ready
This sermon examines how the first advent of Christ secures the work that will be completed at His second coming—namely, the preparation of His Bride in holiness. Drawing from Zechariah’s prophecy, Ezekiel and Jeremiah’s promises of inward transformation, and Peter’s exhortation to holy living, the message emphasizes that obedience is not a requirement for salvation but a result produced by the gospel. Believers are called to have minds prepared for action, spirits made sober, and hope fixed entirely on the future grace that will be revealed at Christ’s return. Holiness, therefore, is the inevitable fruit of belonging to Christ and the evidence that we are indeed the Bride being made ready for the coming King.
