Are you an exile? The children of Israel were exiles, but are we as Christians? The apostle Peter thinks so. And so we delve into what it means for us to live in lives of exile while maintaining our identity in Christ.

Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts: “I am the first and I am the last; besides me there is no god. Who is like me? Let him proclaim it. Let him declare and set it before me, since I appointed an ancient people. Let them declare what is to come, and what will happen. Fear not, nor be afraid; have I not told you from of old and declared it? And you are my witnesses! Is there a God besides me? There is no Rock; I know not any.” (Isaiah 44:6-8 ESV)
