1 Peter 2:10 NLT‬ “Once you had no identity as a people; now you are God’s people. Once you received no mercy; now you have received God’s mercy.”

Through our faith in Jesus Christ, we’ve become God’s people. We were people of Satan. Now, we’re God’s people.

We weren’t Satan’s people because of the terrible things we’ve done. We could have loved and been nice to everyone we’d met, and still been Satan’s people. We were Satan’s people because of our sin nature we obtained through Adam (Rom. 5:19).

If you haven’t accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and allowed His sacrifice to be the payment for your sinful nature, you still belong to Satan. But for everyone else, we’re God’s people and there’s nothing anyone can do about it.
