1 & 2 Peter and Jude
Sharing Christ's Sufferings

David R. Helm, R. Kent Hughes, General Editor

A Preaching the Word commentary that not only delivers stirring exposition on these three epistles, but encourages readers to ground their identity in Christ.

Though Scripture says that suffering precedes future glories for anyone who claims Christ, readers will discover in this stirring exposition of 1-2 Peter and Jude that there is no cause for despair as long as one is in Christ.

As commentator David Helm explores these three epistles in depth, he delivers clarifying messages for today: how believers may be encouraged in their Christian identity and live lives worthy of God’s calling; how the church may be strengthened; how to finish well and avoid falling due to false teaching; and why true believers must contend for the faith.

As a Preaching the Word commentary, this volume is an ideal resource for pastors and teachers, and for personal study. The latest in a series noted for its unqualified commitment to biblical authority, its clear exposition, readability, and practical application, 1 & 2 Peter and Jude assists readers in understanding, applying, and dynamically communicating the biblical text.
