Show Notes

We wrap up our study of 1 Peter by spending a little time addressing the author and his audience, lingering what it means to be “the elect.” We discuss the role that Jesus plays as our Substitute, saving us through His sacrifice. Salvation is not earned by godly behavior, but it is granted when we believe in what Jesus has done for us and accept Him as our personal Savior. Given that salvation is available to us, how then should we live? Several times Peter mentions that Christians should be holy. The process of setting something aside as holy is called “sanctification,” and Peter’s desire is that his readers become sanctified by the Spirit and be obedient to Jesus.
