Peter: What He Knew and When?
STEWARDS OF THE MANIFOLD GRACE OF GOD Peter, in his writings, mentions grace ten times. In his first epistle he points out that the believers are stewards of the manifold grace of God. They are to minister the same gift they received (grace) to others.
1 Peter 4:10 As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
SAVED BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH BY THE PREACHING OF THE GOSPEL: The first chapter of the first epistle of Peter is also quite revealing. Peter writes that his audience has been begotten “by the resurrection of Jesus Christ” and “kept by the power of God.”
1 Peter 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, 5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
