One Book, One Author

Together, 1 & 2 Peter form a combination of encouragement and guidance for believers. The book of 1 Peter encourages the early church to endure persecution well and to reflect hope in Christ during suffering, while 2 Peter offers guidance to stay true to promise that God has given us, even during times of difficulty as we remain faithful to the Lord. Though separated by centuries, the difficulties that were facing Peter’s readers are very similar to what Christians are facing throughout the world today, and we need similar encouragement and guidance to remain faithful to the Lord in our trials and suffering.-------------This Sunday, Frank looks once again at the first chapter of 2 Peter. In this week's message, we focus on truths that may seem simple to us, but often present challenges to the world around us. We may trust that God's Word is, in fact, the very words of God but are we prepared to defend that? Do we understand why we believe what we believe.
