Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade - kept in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by God's power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. 1 Peter 1:3-5
I've been in 1 Peter for a few days now. There's much to think about in the few verses above. What about the great mercy, new birth, and a living hope that all comes through faith?
Let's talk about these things the next few weeks. Any initial thoughts?

my initial thoughts are.
the word "living" in relationship to hope and also to the word of God.
Nancy,
Yeah! The Word gives us the facts in regard to the reason for our hope. I'm sure this will come up again in the study. Thanks!
