The teaching of Apostle Peter and Relevance to The Christian Religious Education in Bantul Regency and Gunung Kidul Regency Yogyakarta

God's chosen people are people who have been redeemed by God Himself through the death of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross by shedding His blood so that His chosen people can live holy, obedient and pleasing to Him. Thus God's chosen people reveal the face of God Himself. God's chosen people are a light to this dark world. God's chosen people are chosen by God to have fellowship with Him. This is a glorious gift of God where the created can approach its Great and Glorious Creator. In this study, the method used is quantitative with a survey method through a questionnaire. The results showed that throughout his epistle, Peter lays out what it means to be God’ s chosen who proclaim Jesus’ excellencies by way of several exhortations. Accordingly, Peter encourages the new covenant church to live in holiness like redemption accomplished for them in the death and resurrection of Jesus (1 Pet 1:3, 18–19). It is because of their new birth that they are to abstain from a sinful life, and instead long for a grace-filled, wisdom-like life (1 Pet 2:1–3).
