Peter's Epistles - Letters to the Scattered Saints - John Hill - Bog

It had been several years since Peter had delivered God?s message at Pentecost. The audience had come from all over the world.
There was nothing novel in the message ? it consisted of things any good Jewish person would have known from their childhood. The difference was that this message was accompanied by the power of God?s Spirit.

After our Lord?s ascension into heaven (Acts 1.11), Peter labored for his Savior tirelessly to the point of death. He understood well the urgency of the times and he desired to pass that along to as many believers as possible.
These two epistles show Peter?s efforts in stirring up those who had been stirred up at Pentecost ? at the birth of the Body of Christ.
