The book of 1 Peter is an epistle addressed to all the followers of Christ, particularly the Jewish ones, and urges them to use Jesus' life as a model on how to live their own. Peter explains that suffering and persecution often accompany the Christian faith, and the believers of Christ must endure these hardships and continue to live a righteous life as Jesus Himself did.
