| Precious |
| Peter, in His two Epistles uses the word “precious” seven times. They are a nice meditation and I would encourage you to examine and meditate on the following references and also to look up their context in First and Second Peter. |
| 1. “The trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth” (1 Peter 1:7). |
| 2. “The precious blood of Christ” (1 Peter 1:19). |
| 3. “A living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious” (1 Peter 2:4). |
| 4. “Wherefore also it is contained in the Scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a Chief Corner Stone, elect, precious” (1 Peter 2:6). |
| 5. “Unto you therefore which believe He is precious” (1 Peter 2:7). |
| 6. “Like precious faith” (2 Peter 1:1). |
| 7. “Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises” (2 Peter 1:4). |
