In the meantime, we're going to look at Peter.

It was a beautiful card that my my wife and I received in the mail.

The envelope was was decorated and it was it had some beautiful songs and in calligraphy in it.

And and as we rode through it, showed just the the love that, this couple had for one another, at a beautiful picture of their hands holding each other's hand there.

NMSU what it is and it described where the wedding was going to be, it even gave us the date.

But all we had to go off of was two first names.

We had no idea who this could be from.

So we begin to dig into rain to end.

We, we looked at the address.

We did not recognize the address.

It was a PO Box.

We we had no clue.

We looked at the first names and we had about a hundred friends with those first names that did not narrow it down at all, even friends that were single or like, how all my goodness.

Finally threw some expert.

Sleuthing on my wife's part.

We narrowed it down and when we discovered who the couple was it was at that point that we could take that card and truly rejoice and celebrate with the information that we were given in that card.

I told you that because as we approach the study of 1st and 2nd Peter and I'm thrilled, I am excited to go through the study of a person, 2nd Peter.

It is so applicable for part of the church today.

And as we do that, I I felt it would be worthwhile even beneficial for you.

And I to get to know Peter quiz.

It was the writer of these letters, as we get to know Peter, in in a more realistic way.

I hope that you and as we go through these letters will be able to engage in what he is telling us.

We will be able to see some things from the perspective that he's writing these things to us from and hopefully, as we look at this man, Peter The letter that God caused him to write to the church you and I will be strengthened and encouraged.

So I won't ask you to get to know Peter because it was as you turn to Peter.

We are going to be jumping all over today.

Okay, we're going to be jumping from passes to bashing because Peter is all over the scriptures.

It's great.

Peter begins his first letter.

This way in 1st Peter, chapter 1 verse 1.

He goes Peter.

That is your full introduction to Peter right there.

We're going to dig a little bit more, but the letter continues in the said to those who reside as alien scattered throughout, Pontius.

Galatia Cappadocia.

Asia, Destiny, who are chosen.

According to the foreknowledge of God the Father, by the Saints.

If I work of the spirits to obey Jesus Christ, in to be sprinkled with his blood made Grace and peace.

Google show me pink about the apostles, the disciples, these foods that we read about in scripture.

We Elevate them to throw the level.

They should not be sweet, put them on pedestals.

In the elevator.

I'm almost to god-like status.

Caroline understand that Peter is a very real person similar to you and me. in fact as we go through and look at some of these verses, I am confident that you were going to see and understand that Peter is more like you and I than you thought, he's a very real person and it's someone that you and I can relate with And as we get to know him, I think his letters are going to really, really speak to our lives.

Peter was a husband.

Did you know that Peter was married?

What movies has Peter went to this life with day in and day out?

Geodude read with his wife, just spouse.

He understood that the struggles of a marriage in the joys and happiness of marriage.
