  4. Peter gives some examples of how to keep our conduct “honorable” before other people.
  5. God is concerned with justice so He puts rules in place for Judges. How does the belief in ONE God separate Israel from the rest of the world?

  7. God says there shouldn’t be “poor” people but then tells the people how to treat the poor. What is going on there?

  9. Peter says to “prepare your mind for action” and to “be sober-minded.” What does he mean by these things?
  10. God tells the people not to do certain things for the sake of the dead and to refrain from eating different animals. Why does God command these things?

  12. Daniel and Erick begin the journey through 1st Peter. The goal of Peter is giving hope to suffering Christian. What does he root their hope in?
