As Peter reflects on Jesus’s supreme sacrifice, he draws out four precious truths about our great salvation.

1. The Price of Our Salvation — The Life of Jesus:
“He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross.”

2. The Purpose of Our Salvation — A Changed Life:
“so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness.”

3. The Promise of Our Salvation — Our Sins are Fully Dealt With:
“By his wounds you have been healed.”

4. The Protection of Our Salvation — Kept by our Shepherd:
“You were like sheep going astray, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.”
