1 Peter, New Testament.
Book of First Peter.
The Apostle Peter describes people as living in spiritual ignorance and darkness until they accept Jesus as the Christ, High Priest, and Lord. God is the source of confidence to every believer who experiences trials and suffering. The proper conduct for a believer is illustrated by the suffering of Christ. Christians are to love and serve one another by using spiritual gifts. Spiritual leaders are to edify those in their care, and all believers are to be vigilant in the fight against the devil.
