The First Epistle of Peter was written by the apostle Peter from Rome between A.D. 64 and 67 to Christians who had fled Asia Minor. It admonishes the pilgrims to have hope and courage and to trust in the power of God.

1 Peter 1

1:21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.
