The book of 1 Peter – chapter by chapter and verse by verse
Peter 1:5-6 KJV (2 verses)
Peter means
rock. Christ is the Rock of Salvation, the Rock of Ages. Christ called Peter
“son of Bar-Jonah” which means son of the dove, signifying the Holy Spirit.
Peter talks plain language with clarity.
5 Who are kept
by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the
last time.
Acts 2:17 – both
sons and daughters will stand against the false one. They will witness and make
a stand. It’s almost ready to be revealed! Very exciting. This is what it’s
like to be holy. See 1 Peter 1:16 – we are told to be holy.
6 Wherein ye
greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness
through manifold temptations:
In this
particular time, we may hit some hard spots – the one-world system will be
brought in. But remember, nothing will happen to us that isn’t common to all
people. (1 Cor. 10:13) There will be ups and downs but we can handle it because
we have the love of God.
It is well worth
serving Him for.
(1 Corinthians
10:13, as mentioned above:
“There hath no
temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who
will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the
temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it”.
I am hoping that if you read this short blog post, you will let me know that you did. You don't have to comment other than saying "I read it". I'd appreciate it. Bold verses are directly from the KJV Bible.

1:1 Peter, an
apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia,
Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
These groups are
of the tribes and others.
2 Elect
according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the
Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto
you, and peace, be multiplied.
The Elect aren’t
better than everyone else, but they stood for God in the first earth age and
they will always stand for Him. See Mark 13, Matthew 24, Luke 21.

God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy
hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ
from the dead,
The full Godhead

4 To an
inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in
heaven for you,
This inheritance
cannot be corrupted, changed, faked, stolen, or removed; and it will never
fade. Meaning, you will never run out of it like you might an earthly
inheritance.
It is reserved
for those who obey God and accept Jesus as their Saviour.
