Resurrection Life In a World of Suffering: A 6-Day Devotionalಮಾದರಿ

Woven through the entire letter of 1 Peter is the repeated call for a condition of heart, and a way of life, that makes sense only if we are absolutely sure we will have a great reward in heaven. Peter calls believers again and again to think and feel and act in a way that can be explained only by an unshakable, all-satisfying hope beyond this life. 

Of course, I don’t mean the hope for material wealth, or painfree health, or reunion with loved ones, or perfect leisure, or futility-free productivity in the age to come—all of that is true, but not central or primary. The ultimate reward that makes sense of the life Peter calls us to live is the reward of being with God and enjoying his beauty. This is the main thing Jesus died for. And this alone can make sense of the counterintuitive life Peter calls us to live. —John Piper
