Practical Lessons from 1 Peter



1.  We have a salvation worth suffering for (1:3-12; Romans 8:18; 2 Corinthians 4:17-18).

2.  We will suffer because He suffered – there is a divine purpose behind our pain (1:6-9;
2:18-25; 3:18; 4:1, 12-19; 5:10; John 13:16; 15:20).

3.  Suffer well (1:13-19, 22; 2:12, 20, 23; 3:1-2, 8-9; 4:7-11; 13, 15-19; 5:11).

Conclusion:  Read 1 Peter and rejoice in your salvation, submit to the Lordship of Jesus Christ and determine in your heart to suffer well, all to the glory of our God and Father!
