Christ is Essential

09 17 I Peter 3:18 In the previous verses Peter instructs his hearers to be a good example even in suffering so that others will look at their godly character and ask them about the hope they have.  In verse 18 Peter once again lets us know who the ultimate example of suffering for doing good and why He suffered – to die for our sins and bring us to God.  We find in this verse that His death was essential.
