:6 In this you Greatly Rejoice, we Rejoice in our Salvation (Matthew 5:10-12; Romans 8:18;  2 Corinthians 4:16-18; James 1:2-5).

1 Peter Chapter 1

Part 1 Vs. 1-5

 

:1-2 Introduction: “Peter, an apostle of JESUS CHRIST: to the pilgrims (sojourners) of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia and Bithynia; elect (chosen) according to the foreknowledge of GOD The Father, in Sanctification of The SPIRIT, for Obedience and Sprinkling of The Blood of JESUS CHRIST.”

:1Peter introduces himself as an apostle of JESUS CHRIST, in his second epistle he introduces himself as “Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of JESUS CHIRST.” (2 Peter 1:1) He is writing to the Christians in five areas, it’s understood that his letter is going to be distributed to a large portion of the Roman Empire.

:2 These (we) are the elect or chosen according to the foreknowledge of GOD The Father (Ephesians 1:3-6 this sounds like predestination, but it is not, John 1:12-13, 29-34, 3:16-17; Romans 8:28-30; Ezekiel 18:32, 33:11). We are Sanctified by The HOLY SPIRIT (2 Thessalonians 2:13-17 [sanctification = being set apart]). For Obedience (Acts 5:29-32; Romans 1:1-6). Sprinkling of The Blood of JESUS CHRIST (Hebrews 10:19-25 hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience [forgiveness] and our bodies washed with pure water {baptism], 12:22-24). Grace and Peace be multiplied (John 14:27, 20:19-23; Philippians 4:6-7; Galatians 6:16-18; Grace = charis “the divine influence upon the heart and its reflection in the life”; GOD told Paul that His Grace was Sufficient for Paul’s need 2 Corinthians 12:9).

 

:3-5 Incorruptible Inheritance:

:3 Worship GOD The Father and our LORD JESUS CHRIST! (Psalm 100). According to His Abundant Mercy (mercy is unmerited favor John 3:16-17). GOD has Begotten us to a living Hope (John 3:3-7; 2 Corinthians 5:14-17; James 1:18; Hebrews 11:1; Romans 8:23-25). Through the Resurrection of JESUS CHRIST (John 11:25; 1 Corinthians 15:20-23; Philippians 3:8-11; Hebrews 9:27-28).

:4 An Inheritance incorruptible (imperishable; 1 Corinthians 15:50-55; Romans 1:22-23). Undefiled (Hebrews 7:24-28). Does not fade away – it is Eternal (Hebrews 9:13-15). Reserved in Heven for us (John 14:1-6; Revelation 21:1-7).

:5 Kept by The Power of GOD; (Exodus 9:16; Zecharia 4:6; Revelation 4:11). Through Faith for Salvation (John 1:12-13; Ephesians 2:4-10). Ready to be Revealed in the Last Time (Galatians 4:3-5; Revelation 1:1-3, 22:6, 19:10, 22:10)

1 John Chapter 1

 

1 John Chapter 1

 

1:1-4 Introduction: In this epistle Paul does not introduce himself so it must have been delivered by someone who knew John to people who knew John.

:1-3 Personal testimony – John knew JESUS in the flesh as one of the 12 JESUS  called to be His disciples (Matthew 10:1-4). He also knew JESUS in the supernatural by his experience with Peter and James on the Mount of Transfiguration (Matthew 17:1-9). Then John knew JESUS in the SPIRIT after His Resurrection (Mark 16:14-18), so when John talks about JESUS he knew JESUS more than most in His day and more than all of us since.

:4 It is important for us as Believers in JESUS to understand what John, Paul, Peter, James and Jude wrote and how that applies to our life!

 

1:5-7 GOD is Light!

:5 No darkness (Psalm 139:1-12; Daniel 2 ;20-23; John 1:1-5; 1 Timothy 6:16).

:6 Do not lie (Psalm 107:10-16; Matthew 6:19-24; John 3:16-21).

:7 Walk in Light (Isaiah 2:5, 60:1-3; Matthew 5:13-16; 1 Corinthians 6:11; Hebrews 9:11-15).

 

1:8-10 Do not sin!

:8-9 Do not lie (Proverbs 28:13; Isaiah 1:18-20; Acts 2:38-39)

:10 GOD does not lie! Do not make Him a liar! (Numbers 23:19; Titus 1:1-3; 1 John 5:10 )
