| Summary: | Abstract The Holy Spirit is central to the message of all three of these epistles. Although 1 Peter includes more details, all three portray the Spirit as the means by which the believer is transformed in God and enabled to participate in the suffering and death of Christ. Finally, the Spirit conveys the blessing/reward for suffering. For the author of 2 Peter (1:20–21), the Spirit conveys prophecy from God through holy men to believers. Jude applies the concept that the Spirit enables the believer to live a godly life, providing the criteria for whether a life is truly Spirit-filled. |
