Our Past

1 Peter 1:10-12 | Elect Exiles | Trent Hunter Elect exiles need to hear about this glorious future, make sense of their difficult present, and rejoice in the privilege delivered to them by a glorious past. It's that third area—the past—to which Peter sets our attention this week, with the hope of stirring our affections for God and his praise in the midst of our various trails. The gospel is a thing of the future; as it turns out, it is also a thing of the past.
