Peter summarized his letter by urging the recipients to stand firm in the grace of God even while they are suffering, understanding that their salvation was safe in the One who began the work. They would suffer for a time in this life, but they would be blessed for all of eternity. God would personally restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish each of them, and so it is with us today.
We know that we are saved by grace, through faith, in Jesus Christ. The more we understand the grace of God in salvation, the more we are able to stand firm in the faith.

A powerful enemy is on the loose that seeks to devour you. You must be on the lookout for his attacks, knowing that suffering is often one of the main tactics he uses. Don’t give in to Satan, or your sinful desires that are in alignment with his desires. Resist, trust God, and continue to stand firm in your faith.

After spending most of his letter speaking to all of the Christians, Peter takes a moment to remind the elders to shepherd as God has commanded them. He encourages submission to the elders by those who are usually the most obstinate. He then exhorts the entire church to practice humility towards one another and to God. Even in their time of suffering,
Peter instructs them to cast off their anxieties and trust that the God who has saved them continues to care for them.

If you are living and believing as a Christian, don’t expect to be loved by a sinful world. Instead, as we live godly lives and proclaim Jesus Christ, we should not be surprised by suffering, but be surprised if we do not suffer.
When you get treated as Christ did, rejoice, because you are representing Christ, and the world sees that. But what can the world do to you? Even sinner’s worst insults are blessings.
No matter what suffering we have to face in this life, we should never forget that even our suffering comes at the will of God. We may not fully understand our suffering, but we trust in a God who does. It will lead to our betterment, and to His glory.

A life of putting away human sinful passions, seeking to obey the will of God, understanding the temporary nature of this life, should lead one to be clear-minded so that we can regularly engage in prayer to God, and service to our fellow Christians

Arm yourselves by embracing obedience to God no matter what the cost or the level of suffering and rejection that you might face. Salvation involves both right belief and right behavior; therefore, both should be emphasized. Peter reminds them again that they are not to live for human passions; instead, they should live for the will of God.
Time is important. Time is limited. Time should be spent wisely. Now that you have been saved by God, don’t use this limited, valuable time on earth to live in sin, but glorify God with your life. He says don’t live as you used to, he includes sin in general, but then list out sensuality, passions, drunkenness, orgies, drinking parties, and lawless idolatry.
When you don’t engage with others in sin, at first, they are surprised, but quite often their surprise turns to malign. However, we must remember that unbelievers are not the Judge, only God is the Judge of the living and the dead.
