Publisher's Synopsis
What does biblical faith look like? How does salvation work? Am I even saved? How do I know? Perhaps one of these questions has kept your thoughts captive. The apostle Peter in 1 Peter 1 communicates the inner workings of salvation and what salvation will bring forth in a person's life with profound clarity. Under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, Peter describes what a Christian is, what a Christian has to look forward to, and what being a Christian will increasingly mean as we live as exiles in this world. In A Steadfast Faith we examine the faith delivered to the saints once and for all with the goal of a greater assurance of God's salvation and a more fervent desire to know the God who justifies, sanctifies, and glorifies all those with a God-given steadfast faith in the gospel. ""Justin Miller has prepared this book by carefully studying the writings of that man called Peter. By God's Spirit working through this young pastor, the Lord has provided us with a remarkably beautiful and concise answer to the question, 'How can I be saved?' and 'How can I know that I have eternal life?' Pastor Miller has followed the old fisherman whose life had been changed by the Lord of Glory, Jesus Christ, and brought back a remarkable treasure of wisdom."" --Michael A. Milton, President, Faith for Living ""With a variety of examples from history, culture, life, and above all biblical truth, Miller engages and unfolds the glorious truth of the first chapter of 1 Peter. Justin takes the heavy and profound truths of 1 Peter 1:1-25 and presents each doctrine as a precious gem held in the light to see clearly the many facets of each. It is an informative, convicting, and encouraging work beneficial to every believer."" --Blain R.
