Chapter Summaries of 1 Peter

1 Peter, to the diaspora. God has given us new birth through Christ. The prophets told of this grace. So be holy in all your conduct.

2 You are being built up to be a royal priesthood. Submit to human authority. Live as servants of God. Follow Christ in his suffering.

3 Wives, submit to your husbands. Husbands, honour your wives. Repay evil with blessing. Christ suffered for sins to bring us to God.

4 Do not live for human desires but for the will of God. The end is near. Love each other deeply. Do not be surprised when trials come.

5 Elders should be examples to the flock. Clothe yourselves with humility. Resist the devil. God will strengthen you. Peace to you all.

They are written to help you understand and remember what's going on in the chapter, but they're no substitute for reading the Bible for yourself.
