1 Peter 2:3 - Additional Comments

Grace - the giving that God does, that we can't earn and don't deserve. As a Christian, we experience God's gifts, in His grace. Yes, we as Christians have tasted that the Lord is gracious. We have been fed before. This is something we cannot deny. Therefore, Peter is encouraging all Christians to put far away these vile sins that detract from our success, and to be fully nourished, continually, ongoing, and healthy.
Note that the graciousness of our Lord is best received by tasting it, by experiencing it, instead of just learning about it. Trust and expect God to work in your life, and then watch Him do it.
