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.

God had made a promise to Abraham. Even though it took several years, that promise was fulfilled. We often talk about the faith of Abraham and that is important.

7 Life-End Lessons from a Jail Cell
Paul, the most successful church planter ever, abandoned to a jail cell in Rome, writes to prepare Timothy for the difficult days ahead by: reminding Timothy of his spiritual heritage (1:3-5), his gifting (6-7), calling him to willingly suffer (1:8-18) to multiply his ministry in others (2:1-15), pursue holiness (2:16-26) all the while expecting great opposition (3:1-13) and ultimately to finish well like Paul (3:14-4:22) by standing on God’s inspired Word and fulfilling his ministry.
