With a name like Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, Nero was a young egomaniac. Soon after Peter’s writing he blamed the Christians for the fire in Rome (July 18, 64 A.D.) and put many innocent people to horrible deaths!

Peter himself, in 64 A.D. would be put to death by Nero’s command. Foxes Book of Martyrs -crucified upside down not worthy to be crucified like his Lord.

Yet, Peter, despite the corrupt political and moral environment of his day, called believers to exercise spiritual etiquette. Today, God calls us to do the same!
