In this episode, Peter emphasizes the importance of obedience to the gospel and stresses the reality of the coming judgment, which will begin with the household of God. He then encourages faithful believers to entrust themselves to God, knowing that He is a faithful Creator.
“For it is time for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God?
And if it is with difficulty that the righteous is saved, what will become of the godless man and the sinner?
Therefore, those also who suffer according to the will of God are to entrust their souls to a faithful Creator in doing what is right.” – 1 Peter 4:17-19 (NASB)
🔥 Judgment starts with God’s people. Let’s remain faithful, obey the gospel, and trust in our faithful Creator!
