The message of Peter's first letter turned the world upside-down for his readers. He saw the people of the young church of the first century as strangers, aliens who were only temporary residents, travellers heading for their native land.
Peter speaks to our own pilgrimage when he tells of suffering now and glory to come. Stormy seasons of persecution were beginning for the church in Asia Minor. These storms rage on in the modern world.
Edmund Clowney believes that no true Christian can escape at least a measure of suffering for Christ's sake. Out of his firsthand knowledge as an apostle of Christ, Peter shows us what the story of Jesus' life means for us as we take up our cross and follow him.
Edmund Clowney (1917–2005) was formerly President of Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia, USA, where he also served as Emeritus Professor of Practical Theology. He many books including The Unfolding Mystery and The Church in IVP’s Contours of Christian Theology series.
