Underwriters
Peter goes on to emphasize the need for “patient endurance” when we suffer wrongfully because that patient endurance is “pleasing to God” (v. 20), it follows the example of Jesus Christ (v. 21), and it displays the outworking of our redemption. Peter sums up his appeal by calling the believer to become an “underwriter” of Jesus Christ and to conduct ourselves in such a way that we draw people into relationship with Him. Jesus is the watchful Shepherd and our Overseer (employer/director) of our souls.

Unjust Suffering -- 1 Peter 2:18-25
There are times when, in following the commands of Christ in how we related to those around us, we will suffer for doing so. In speaking about how slaves are to relate to their masters even if their masters are wicked, we move to look at how we are to deal with unjust suffering at the hands of another.
