1 Peter 1:6-12
1 Peter 1:6-12 CSB
You rejoice in this, even though now for a short time, if necessary, you suffer grief in various trials so that the proven character of your faith #— #more valuable than gold which, though perishable, is refined by fire #— #may result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ. Though you have not seen him, you love him; though not seeing him now, you believe in him, and you rejoice with inexpressible and glorious joy, because you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls. Concerning this salvation, the prophets, who prophesied about the grace that would come to you, searched and carefully investigated. They inquired into what time or what circumstances the Spirit of Christ within them was indicating when he testified in advance to the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would follow. It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves but you. These things have now been announced to you through those who preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven #— #angels long to catch a glimpse of these things.
