To follow Christ, Peter says, we must arm ourselves. But this is not a call to carry earthly weapons. Instead, we arm ourselves with a new way of thinking. The willingness to suffer for others exists only in those whose lives are not dominated by sin. In this lesson, Dr. Ferguson explains how Christians must think rightly about themselves and what Christ has done to free them from sin.
