Continuing in chapter 1, verse 17, we resume our study of 1 Peter. God will judge each person according to their works, yet we are saved by grace through faith—not by works. Do Paul and Peter preach different gospels? How do we synthesize these messages? Join the guys as they wade into deep theological waters. Works, faith, predestination, and more await you in this installment of the After Class Podcast.
A look at the history of philosophy paints a sad picture of people becoming bolder through time in criticism of religion. Nevertheless, each would have to admit that everything is transitory. Peter, quoting Isaiah, points this out, however the Word of the Lord endures. The work of the Spirit is to wither our fleshly glory so that we might be possessed by things eternal.

1 Peter is a letter written to be shared with all Christians in the early years of the church in a time of great persecution. Peter walked with Jesus, learned from Jesus, and launched the movement of the church. This letter helps us find hope in the midst of suffering, inspiration to live distinctly as followers of Jesus, and find purpose when we are pushed on every side to give up or conform. This week, we engage with 1 Peter 3:1-7 ESV and how Peter addresses marriage and the Gospel. Speaker: Michael Bayne Text: 1 Peter 3:1-7 ESV
Peter concludes his letter to the elect exiles with exhortations to persevere in the faith through sufferings, to humble themselves under the mighty hand of God, cast their cares on him, be soberminded, watchful, and resist the devil who prowls around like a roaring lion. Suffering is the common experience of all Christians in the present age and is for our sanctification and to share Christ's sufferings according to God's will. But suffering in this age will surely be followed by God exalting believers at the proper time in the age to come. Echoing the theme of suffering according to God's will (4:19), Peter beautifully summarizes this letter to the elect exiles by affirming that God promises to sustain even through suffering: “the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, establish, strengthen, and support you after you have suffered a little while.”

Gospel-centered has to do with what God did, thework of God - covenant sealed once for all - whereas now we're moving to whereGod is and works.Where was the special saving presence of God in Old Testament times?•Eden - see lessons on Creation and the garden as the special Templepresence of God, where God dwelt among his creation and his “image.” Hewas later “occasionally” present throughout Genesis to special people of thefamily of God, their altars, Jacob's ladder, etc.•Tabernacle - Exodus 40:34-38•Not just anyone could approach it (Exod. 33.4-6) and this was whereMoses spoke to God "face-to-face" (Exod. 33.7-11)•This is what set Israel apart from all other nations - Exod. 33.15-16•Purpose of Israel - Exod. 25.8-9; 29.43-46 ("I will dwell among the people ofIsrael and will be their God. And they shall know that I am the LORD their God,who brought them out of the land of Egypt that I might dwell among them. I amthe LORD their God.").•After the heavenly model - Exod. 25.9, 40; Heb. 8.5ff.•Temple - 1 Kings 8:12-24, 27-30•All the purposes above from the Tabernacle are transferred to the Temple,the 'permanent Tabernacle'Where is the special, saving presence of God found now?Jesus “and” the Church!•Body of Jesus being the new Temple - John. 1.18 [and the rest of the gospel!],Temple's curtain ripped (Matt. 27.51, Mark 15.38, Luke 23.45), Templedestroyed and raised in 3 days, etc.2 of 5•If Jesus is the new Temple, and we are joined with Him, we too arebecoming the Temple of God (Eph. 4.11-16, 1Peter 2.4-9)•Eph. 1.22-3 & Eph. 2.19-22•1Cor. 3.16-7 - [divisions in the body led to Paul's rebuke:] "Do you not knowthat you (pl.) are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you? If anyonedestroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy, and you (pl.)are that temple."•"On earth as it is in heaven” (Matt. 6.10) is a guiding principle andmotivation throughout Scripture (for another example, cf. Jn. 1.51 based onJacob at Bethel in Gen. 28.12, as well as Heb. 10.19-20)•Main Scriptural metaphors for the Church: covenant assembly/gathering,place of mission, people of God, chosen nation, remnant, family, bride, body,building/temple, city, dwelling place of God.•Notice the Church is NOT: a theater; a product to offer consumers;merely the most pragmatic way to grow; something Christians came upwith to help each other.•Note: you in plural form (“y'all”) is overwhelmingly the use in the NTYou could summarize God's purpose in the world as not selecting outindividuals to get to heaven, but rather as working to gather a community intoHis presence on earth as it is in heaven! (Cf. Eph. 2.6, Col. 3.1) We need a wholetransformation of what it means to be a Christian if this is the paradigm. Ratherthan isolated individuals who happen to believe something, to be a Christian isto be apart of a unique community with a unique mission.

Peter Baker begins our new series in Ecclesiastes as we explore the purpose of life.
The world distorts, persecutes, lies, and tempts us to be distracted. Despite this, are you experiencing the indescribable joy found in Christ? When we embrace the vision of the Kingdom of God inaugurated in Christ, it produces a joy that looks ahead to the fullness we will one day experience — yet can already taste now. As Peter writes: “Even though you have not seen Him, you love Him. Though you do not see Him now, you believe in Him and are filled with a glorious joy that cannot be put into words, for you are receiving the salvation of your souls — the final result of your faith.” So now what? Join the guys as they unpack what it means to believe without seeing, gird up the loins of our minds, and discover how joy can spring up even in the midst of suffering for the faith.
Have you ever wondered what makes a great follower? Probably not. Most of us think about how important leaders are but forget the followers. Pastor Jason unpacks the often-overlooked art of following well, drawing wisdom from 1 Peter's guidance. Whether we are leading or following, this message offers practical insights for finding your place in God's grand plan.
The letter of 1 Peter offers God's response to how to live and what to trust when the world feels uncertain. But sometimes even the word of God, which is what 1 Peter is, seems unreliable because of tricky passages. That's exactly what we study in today's message. Pastor Julie explains how to handle passages that seem uncomfortable to us by staying curious and trying to understand it according to several important principles rather than being swayed by the shallow takes on some of these passages we see online sometimes.
How should we respond/react when our faith is what causes others to treat us poorly?

Today the guys continue our study and examine 1 Peter 1:3–9. To choose allegiance to Christ and His Kingdom is to enter into conflict and enmity with the world wherever you may roam. What does it mean that our inheritance is kept in heaven? Are we Livin' on a Prayer, or is it true that the world Can't Touch This salvation we hope for as we follow The Man, the Lord Jesus Christ? Don't Stop Believin'—don't miss out on the great things God is calling us into! Pick your walk-up song and get ready for the endgame in today's episode of the After Class Podcast.

Have you experienced good leadership? Drawing from Peter's insights, Pastor Jason reveals how authentic Christian leadership transcends titles into eternity. Whether you're leading a ministry, mentoring a friend, or raising children, this message offers practical wisdom for growing your leadership impact while staying anchored in Christ's example.
Peter starts his letter to the scattered exiles in ancient Turkey by giving a dependable identity. Identity helps people in the midst of their uncertainty and hopelessness. In the next part of the letter, Peter expands on their identity, telling them that they are holy, and out of their holy identity they are to live holy. Holy living honors Jesus, but it is dependable, too, able to see us through the trials and uncertainties of life. In this message, Pastor Joel unpacks Peter's description of holy, dependable living and gives the perfect example of someone living it out smack dab in the middle of suffering and uncertainty: Jesus himself.

The book of 1 Peter concludes today with a short chapter including an exhortation to the elders of the churches to whom Peter is writing and a general admonition to resist the devil and remain humble. As he addresses the elders, those who were in charge of overseeing the local congregations of believers, Peter encourages them to shepherd God's flock out of love and not for lesser reasons. Consider, friends, that when Peter had betrayed Jesus by denying him three times, Christ restored Peter threefold by telling him to feed and shepherd his sheep. The admonition that Christ gave to Peter, he now passes on to others who seek to love the Lord through the service of teaching and leading. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

The world we live in is full of uncertainty, whether in current events casting a shadow over our politics, the people in our lives who let us down, and more. For some, the hopelessness leads them to just focus on the present and try to have some fun to help them forget how hard it is. But simply numbing the pain is not the way of Jesus. In this series, we're going to study a letter written to a group of people living through uncertain times by the apostle Peter about where we can find hope and reliability in uncertain times. In this first message of the series, Pastor Joel explains how Peter unpacks our identity and inheritance as reasons to find calm in the chaos.
May God's Promise Carry You Through The Storms And Struggles 1 Peter 5:10-11 10And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 11To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.

The guys are cruising into a brand-new series, ready to park in 1 Peter for a while. Rooted in the Old Testament, this letter shows us how the gospel still speaks directly into our lives today.

In this episode, the guys check the mirrors with some historical context and then shift gears into a conversation about predestination. Were you predestined to listen to this episode?
