Bible Note: A Study of 1 Peter 1:8.......................... Peter has had much to say about our past, future, and present in Christ. Here though, he turns his attention to the real focus of our Christian lifes - Jesus Christ Himself! We have received much: God's Word, salvation, regeneration, the presesence of the Holy Spirit, ect.... But, Christ is the focus of it all. Christianity is not a bunch of rules. It is not a system of thought or world view. It is primarily a relationship with our Creator. That relationship of love is a present reality. Peter appeals to this. We don't currently see Him, but we love Him. We trust Him. It is this relationship which fills us with joy inexpressible and full of glory. The world doesn't understand this joy!
