1 PETER 1:21 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.”
Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God — the logical chain shows that faith in God is mediated through Christ: the resurrection and glorification (doxazō) of Jesus establish the basis for belief in God's power and fidelity. The result is that faith (pistis) and hope (elpis) converge in God, mediated through Christ.
