1 Peter (Book 60/66) – A Book Written by Peter to the Church
1 and 2 Peter and Jude work together to encourage believers to endure suffering and persecution with hope, emphasizing their identity as God's chosen people and the promise of future glory. It highlights the importance of holy living and the example of Christ's suffering. Peter's call to stand firm in faith stands in contrast to his earlier denial and abandonment of Jesus in His time of need. Jesus’ restoration of Peter created a boldness in Peter that we see throughout the book of Acts and in his two Epistles as he continually, even amid persecution, points to Jesus, our living hope and example of endurance.
