Faith In The Revealed Word - I Peter 1:10-12

Peter now encourages the believers to whom he is writing to have a complete faith in the revealed Word of God. He does this by reminding them that the Old Testament Prophets wrote much of their prophecy without having a true understanding of what they were writing. They searched to understand things regarding their Messiah, but could not understand. Now that Christ has come, we have an understanding of how He provides salvation, and we understand His sufferings and coming return to set up His kingdom. We must understand that we must trust the revealed Word of God.
