Theme: How do I continue to live for Christ when people don’t like what I have to say? Peter is concerned with how Jesus is known inside the Church and how He is presented outside the Church. Because of the power of Jesus and the Gospel, when hostility and suspicion come, we are the ones happy and content, we are the ones that are blessed. The blessing of living the Gospel is that it guides us through difficult relationships and it shows us what it means to be the church that God wants us to be, to enjoy life before God and to follow Jesus through suffering.

Pietro scrive alle mogli e ai mariti.Per le mogli, sei innanzitutto sposata con Cristo, quindi rimani in un matrimonio difficile vivendo per il matrimonio perfetto con il Signore Gesù. Quando stai soffrendo in un modo ingiusto sotto il tuo marito questo è una cosa preziosa negli occhi di Dio perché Lui sta guardando al tuo cuore, Lui ti conosce, sei bella per Lui. Quando conformi il tuo cuore al Suo, una nuova bellezza sta nascendo nel tuo cuore e stai assomigliando sempre di più a Dio. Per i mariti, il modo in cui benedici la tua moglie rivelerà la sua vera bellezza.
