  1. We Are A Saved People (Ch. 1) – a salvation planned by God (v2), prophesied in the OT (v10-12), preached by the apostles (v12), purchased with the blood of Christ (v18-19), and predicated upon obedience (v22-23).
  2. We Are A Separated People (Ch. 2) – by birth (1:23), faith (2:7), and behavior (v2:11), a special people of God!
