In 1 Peter Chapter 1, the apostle addresses Christians who are
dispersed and facing trials, providing them with hope and assurance.
He celebrates the new birth through Jesus Christ, which promises
an inheritance that is incorruptible. Peter reminds believers of
their salvation, a theme prophesied by the prophets and longed
to be seen by angels. He calls for holy living, in reverence to God,
and encourages love among the faithful, as they are cleansed by
obeying the truth.
