We address 3 passages from 1 Peter. 1 Peter 3:3, 4 addresses women on the issue of adornment. It often is turned into a list of rules and regulations on the behavior of women. The message of this passage is respectful and pure conduct of a believing wife married to an unbelieving husband. 1 Peter 3:7 encourages husbands in how to treat their wives. It is not about a command. It is about an internal desire to love your wife. Be considerate; i.e., wisdom and understanding. Get to know your wife from the inside out. Treat her with respect; to honor and esteem your wife. Why? Because husbands and wives are fellow heirs with Christ equally. 1 Peter 3:18-22 is actually a passage of comfort. We can be certain and confident in our life even in times of suffering. This passage may be one of the most confusing in the entire Word of God. Listen as Bob brings insight into it's meaning.
