1 Peter 1,2

Peter encourages Christians to consider Christ Jesus and how he suffered unjustly when they encounter persecution or unfair treatment. He clarified that God, Who sees all, will have the final word on each man’s treatment. He likewise encouraged patiently waiting for God to vindicate and justify when receiving unfair treatment.

A Christian’s approach to social injustice should look different than that of unregenerate souls who try to right wrongs with violence and caustic civil unrest.

God’ grace gives each man the power to do what is right, things that please the Lord.
