you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of Trials.

20 He was chosen before the Creation of the World, but was Revealed in these last times for your
sake. (2)

13 Therefore, with minds
that are alert and fully sober, set your Hope on the Grace to be brought to you
when Jesus Christ is revealed at His Coming.

new birth into a living Hope through the Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the Dead,
4 and into an Inheritance that can never Perish, Spoil or Fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you,
