Formed in the Furnace of Grace
1 Peter 4:12–19

Peter makes the case that suffering will be a part of life for any person in this broken world. The Gospel does not change that experience, but it does put our suffering in a new setting and give it a purpose that leads to an otherwise impossible outcome in our lives.

A Summary of Suffering
1 Peter 4:12-19

As we explore 1 Peter 4:12-19 this week, we will encounter a summary of Peter’s words on suffering and a reminder that other people’s sin is never an excuse for our sin.  His encouragement will be a call to trust our Creator and a continued commitment to do good.

Exiles: Suffering for Being a Christian

When facing trials, Peter urges us not to be surprised, but to respond by rejoicing in Christ and committing to doing good. We are never alone in our hardship—the Holy Spirit is with us. Writing with deep pastoral concern, Peter cautions believers and encourages faithful endurance to God and to doing good.
