In 1 Peter 2, Peter encourages us to live amongst the world in such a way that sets an example. We should live as though we are free, as we are indeed free from sin, but not in a way that hides evil - meaning we’re not free at all from sin. This is the same chapter that is often quoted “wives submit to your husbands… Husbands … Lay down your lives,” which gives a picture of what righteous living looks like: it is service and love to others.
