1. A HEART THAT REJOICES (vs. 3a)

 

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! 

 

But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation. Ps. 13:5

 

Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls. 1 Peter 1:8-9

 

2. A HEALING AT REBIRTH (vs. 3b)

 

In His great mercy, he has given us new birth

 

23 For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God. 1 Peter 1:23

 

 Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 2 Corinthians 5:17

 

3. HOPE OF THE RESSURECTION (vs. 3c)

 

into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

 

And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins. 18 Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ are lost. 19 If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied. 20 But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep. 1 Cor. 15:17-20
