Afflictions and Consolations

Writings by J. G. Bellett
Notes of an Address on the First Epistle of Peter
By J. G. B. Aug., 1851.
(extracted from The Northern Witness, 1880)
There are three things in this epistle: 1st, the apostle contemplates the saint in times of various troubles; 2ndly, the mind with which the trouble should be passed through; and 3rdly, the consolations which God provides for such a time. There is nothing very remarkable in the bearing of it; but so much the more needed by the soul very often; — it is homely, practical. Godly power marks the whole of the epistle.
