The sermon "Witness Works," based on 1 Peter 2:11-12, highlights two essential ways our Christian witness functions. First, we must abstain from fleshly desires, recognizing the internal conflict between flesh and soul as seen in Romans 7:15 and James 4:1, but also trusting in the victory assured through Christ. This separation from worldly behavior reflects our identity, as seen in Genesis 23:4, where we are described as sojourners on earth. Second, we are called to maintain our good deeds and faithfulness, allowing our light to shine before others (Matthew 5:16) and remaining steadfast despite opposition (Matthew 5:11), thus bearing witness to God's work and grace in our lives (Luke 19:44, Luke 1:68).
