The first inspired epistle written by the apostle Peter was designed to strengthen, encourage and comfort Christians in the midst of the “fiery trial” they would endure (I Peter 4:12; 1:7), and to hold out to them their great hope. The author of this booklet for Bible study groups leads into the various truths of this book in 16 lessons with questions (and accompanying Scripture references) that students can research before class. Space is given to write answers and class notes. This book may also be used for personal study of God’s Word.
The subject matter covered is shown in the lesson titles: Greeting and Benediction, The Joy of the New Testament Church, Hope That Never Dies, Fervent Love for the Brethren, The Chief Cornerstone, By Their Fruits Ye Shall Know Them, Patience in Suffering for God’s Sake, Admonition to Wives and Husbands, A Godly Walk, A Good Confession Amidst Persecution, Through Suffering to Glory, The Judge Is at the Door, Stewards in God’s House, Partakers of Christ’s Suffering, Admonition to Elders and Conclusion of the Epistle.
