1 Peter 1: Born again to a living hope

Read 1 Peter 1:1-25 before you meet.

In a few lines

Born again (1:3, 1:23) stands for one Greek verb that the New Testament has only in this chapter. And behind foreigners in 1:1 is the word the WEB gives as pilgrims in "foreigners and pilgrims" (2:11).

The verse to carry

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,”

1 Peter 1:3

To talk about

  1. 1. "In him, though now you don’t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly" (1:8). What has helped you go on believing in one you don't now see?

  2. 2. "set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ" (1:13). What would setting your hope fully on that grace look like for you this week?

  3. 3. "love one another from the heart fervently" (1:22). What is one way you could love the people you study with from the heart this week?
