Christ Our Living Hope - Part 3 - 1 Peter 1:10-21

The first nine verses of this epistle, Peter encourages his readers to remain faithful in persecution, by discussing what God has done for them and given them in Christ Jesus. He let them know that between receiving salvation and the return of Jesus Christ, there will be suffering and testing of their faith. Now Peter will talk about living in hope of the return of our Savior. We are not to place our hope in the corruptible, defiled, fading things and people of this world, but we are to rest our hope fully upon the grace this is to be brought to us at the return of Jesus Christ.
