Thinking Through First and Second Peter
In reading Thinking Through First and Second Peter, the apostle Peter’s words will resonate for believers living in an age of rising hostility to the Christian faith. With clarity and depth, this commentary reveals what it means to be born again to a living hope, to walk as holy people in an unholy culture, and to live as sojourners whose true home is yet to come. Through fiery trials and subtle pressures, Peter’s message rings clear: your faith is not in vain, and your future is secure.
Published posthumously, the final book in L. A. Mott, Jr.’s 12-volume Thinking Through the Bible series will be a special delight to lovers of language. His approach begins with a thorough explanation of nearly every Greek noun, verb, adjective, conjunction, preposition, and participle. From there he builds explanations of phrases, clauses, sentences, paragraphs, whole sections until the interconnectedness of all the parts is revealed — first in Peter’s first general epistle, and then his second. Whether you’re feeling discouraged, isolated, or simply eager to grow in grace, this book will ground you in timeless truth—and stir your heart to stand firm in the grace of God
