1 Peter 1:2;We can know the Joyful hope, that we have in the Lord Jesus Christ: Elect according to the foreknowledge of God, the Father:through Sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience. This letter probably written over two thousand years a go. Peter sent this letter, to the saints in charge of the Believers in his day, He want Them to spend time being rooted in the passion Christ: and less time in the passions of the flesh. since God the Father, has begotten us again unto a lively hope;by the Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. they were reminded to Conduct them self, in a way as is pleasing to God. How much more do we need this, as Christians today we need to be reminded. We cannot save our self, or keep our self saved. We are kept by the power of God: through faith unto Salvation.
The trial of our faith, being much more precious than gold: thou tried by fire; it may seems at times;in this world we may experience strained relationships; tension, and antagonism, even persecution. James 1:12; tells us that we are blessed when we endure temptation: it’s not if, but when” he is tried; he shall receive a crown of life; which the Father hath promised: to them that loved Him. Since we are kept by the power of God, and not just left to work out our salvation; now that we are saved: we still depend on the Lord each day He gave us this new life; and He does all the keeping. Ephesians 2:8; For by grace are ye saved though faith; and not of yourselfs: it is the gift of God: not of works, less any one should boast.
