Peter calls those who believe in Christ a "peculiar people."
The greek word used there means: "acquired" or "purchased possession" which means that we are God's own possession. God's own.
Now that's interesting. God really is our father more than any other. We belong to him because he made us, because he redeemed us with a precious gift. No wonder what Satan cannot snatch us out of God's hands.
Anyways, here is a youtube video I made of one of my absolute favorite Christian songs.
This will be a blog for Christians, for people who are part of a minority, for writers. I'm a poet, essayist, devotionalist, reviewer and writer of speculative fiction.Let God be true...and every man a liar.
