Purpose for the Letter
First Peter was written to Christians who were experiencing various forms of persecution, men and women whose stand for Jesus Christ made them aliens and strangers in the midst of a pagan society.
Peter exhorted these Christians to steadfast endurance and exemplary behavior.
Practical instructions make this epistle a unique source of encouragement for all believers who live in conflict with their culture.
The purpose then of 1 Peter was to encourage Christians to face persecution so that the true grace of Jesus Christ would be evidenced in them (5:12).
Message of:
The apostle of Hope
Called the “apostle of hope,” Peter’s primary message is to trust the Lord, live obediently no matter what your circumstances, and keep your hope fixed on God’s ultimate promise of deliverance.
Those who read 1 Peter are encouraged to lift their eyes from present problems and trials and behold the vistas provided by an eternal perspective.
For though believers may for a while suffer grief in trials, they wait for an inheritance that can never perish, spoil, or fade.
Author of:

Interestingly he is the only man in the New Testament called Peter.

The sanctifying work of the Spirit

“Obedience” (hypakoēn, from hypakouō, “to hear under, to hearken”) is man’s responsibility to be submissive to God’s Word (cf. ; ; ; ).
One living in obedience is constantly being cleansed with Christ’s blood and is thus “set apart” from the world
