Augsburg Fortress

The epistle or letter of 1 Peter reminds those who would follow Jesus that they are born anew into a wonderful inheritance as God's own people: trusted, called, made holy, and proclaiming. This doesn't guarantee that their faith won't be tested or that they won't experience suffering, but 1 Peter assures its readers that their relationship with God is guaranteed by the death and resurrection of Jesus. In the end, we won't be put to shame. And in the meantime, we cast our burdens on Christ who loves us beyond measure!
