Suffering, 1 Peter, Media, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

Today we continue our series through 1 Peter. Peter’s letter is theologically weighty, yet simultaneously down-to-earth, and is filled fresh encouragements to wholehearted faithfulness while living in exile. Today, in 1 Peter 4:1-6, Peter seeks to help us persevere through unjust suffering we may encounter, as followers of Jesus, by getting us to consider how to arm ourselves—by how we think about suffering.

1 Peter is an ancient letter written by the Apostle Peter, the beloved disciple of Jesus, between A.D. 62-63 from Rome, to churches spread throughout Asia Minor (modern day Turkey). His aim was to encourage them—and us—to stand firm (1 Pet. 5:12) amidst trials, persecution, and heartache in a world that is not our true home. Today he helps us understand why it is better to suffer for doing good, than for doing evil (3:17)—because that is how Jesus achieved his victory.

His aim was to encourage them—and us—to stand firm (1 Pet. 5:12) amidst trials, persecution, and heartache in a world that is not our true home.

In our passage today, 1 Peter 2:9-12, Peter will pull back the veil of untruth to reveal the glory of Jesus’ church as a God-created new people group of worshiping sons and daughters, set apart for His kingdom purposes by His eternal merciful love, for His glory and the joy of the nations in Jesus!

He is risen! (And happy seventh birthday, DCC!) On Good Friday we gathered to remember Jesus’ death on the cross for the forgiveness of sin. Today, on Easter, we gather to rejoice in Jesus’ climactic victory over the grave through his resurrection. In 1 Peter 2:4-8, Peter reveals that Jesus is the living cornerstone of reality. By faith in him, we become living stones in his living temple that exists to display his worth, and announce his victory, to the neighborhoods of our city and the nations of the world.
