Standing Firm in the True Grace of God: Biblical Theology and Preaching in 1 Peter

Abstract

This project is a series of expositions on passages from the book of 1 Peter that contain either Old Testament quotations or allusions. It investigates both the contextual meaning of each passage and the biblical theological connections to the rest of Scripture. Chapter 1 introduces the project by giving a brief survey of biblical theology, defining its meaning, and stating a practical approach to the task of interpretation. The remainder of the project is a seven-part expositional treatment of selected passages within 1 Peter employing a biblical-theological approach.
