Essentials for Endurance
May 31, 2026 • Ben Gibson
So far in our study through 1 Peter, we have sought to understand our suffering. Scripture has provided us with the necessary perspective so we can see it and understand it according to God’s sovereign purpose. We close out this first letter with some essential actions that will ensure a believer’s endurance during the fiery trial. They are God-prescribed behaviors, and thus they are one of His chosen means to keep us. They require effort on our part, and consequently this is how we bear responsibility for our own endurance.
We are going to break them in two parts. Join us today as we begin to discuss the Essentials for Endurance from 1 Peter 5:5 - 7.
