That kind of world is becoming increasingly real for Christ followers today. Peter is concerned that his hearers (that includes us) understand that they are chosen by God, given authority and responsibility and called to represent Christ in this kind of at atmosphere. 1 Peter 2:21-25 invites us to embrace a similar mind set as Jesus, a willingness to suffer in order that those around us see Jesus in us and be given the opportunity to be saved, to be healed, to have Living Hope!
