1 Peter 1:17 — “Gird up the loins of your mind.” By nature man lives life by lust. Listen as Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones addresses man's greatest and most desperate need in 1 Peter 1:17. The supreme need to know God. This is a need the world cannot fulfill. Man will be judged by God for his relationship to Him. We are not just a spectator in this life. Learn of the search for happiness, peace, and the knowledge of God in Scripture. Many things tell us about God, but they do not bring us to Him. The signs and suggestions of creation bring us to a knowledge of God as Creator. “Man by searching cannot, and has not found God.” Learn of the only way one can come to a knowledge of the one God who reigns over all. Everyone has been created by God, but not everyone is a child of God. God hates evil and calls us to a standard of holiness – “Be ye holy because I am holy.” Man needs the mercy, grace, strength, and power that only God can provide. Cry out for help and let Him lead you. There is access to the household of God through the blood of Christ.
