If you had 30 seconds to live, what would matter most? That sobering question was more than theoretical for first-century believers. Facing persecution, exile, and even martyrdom, Christians in Peter’s day needed reminders that their faith was not in vain. In this episode of Wisdom for the Heart, Stephen Davey opens Second Peter 1:1b to reveal three timeless anchors for the believer. You’ll see that saving faith in Christ is a gift, not an achievement; that salvation is a priceless treasure shared equally by every Christian; and that Jesus Christ is both God and Savior. These truths gave early believers the courage to stand firm in the face of death, and they provide the same strength for you today. When life is stripped down to its essentials, the only things that matter are the testimony of saving faith, the treasure of eternal citizenship, and the truth of Christ’s deity and redemption. Discover why Peter’s message is still exactly what you need when the clock is ticking.
