Everyone suffers, including Christians. But as exiles in this world, Christians suffer in distinctive ways. Their suffering follows the pattern of the gospel. Peter wants his readers to understand this, so that they will be encouraged and comforted as they face trials. In this chapter, Dr. Ferguson describes the unique characteristics of suffering that Christians should expect as they seek to live faithfully.
