The recipients of this letter had been suffering various trials and afflictions, along with a very real threat of more severe difficulties to come. Peter touches on various doctrines and has much to say about Christian life and duties. I Peter has been characterized as a letter of suffering and persecution, of suffering and glory, of hope and courage. No other New Testament book so reflects the real nature and effect of God's love in Jesus Christ.
I Peter
