Peter begins his letter to the believers in the Roman provinces encouraging them to take action based on God's free gift of grace, despite enduring persecution and suffering. Believers, who are called according to God's foreknowledge, are able to obey God's calling based on: their new identity, inheritance in heaven, and protection of God's power. Through these privileges, believers are able to rejoice.
