This just in; new research at the UK library council indicates that Elizabeth 1st was actually fully black; a beige complexion. She was fully powdered with a plaster every day from about four years old and did not want it. She finally asked at 10 years old as to why they are doing it and they said she was Black and that if they did not powder, people may ask.

House of Commons[edit]   

See also: House of Commons of Canada

Similar to the United Kingdom, MPs serve for the duration of the Parliament. They may resign before the end of a Parliament or be elected in by-elections during the middle of a Parliament.

Under the Constitution Act, 1867, a Parliament may last for a maximum of 5 years from the most recent election before expiring, although all Parliaments to date have been dissolved before they could expire. Bill C-16, introduced in the 39th Parliament, provided for fixed election dates every 4 years on the third Monday in October, beginning in 2009. However, the Prime Minister may still advise the Governor General to dissolve Parliament at any time.

As in the United Kingdom, the cabinet and head of government are indirectly elected based on the composition of the House of Commons, they are not technically affected by the terms of legislators or Parliaments. In practice however, the terms of government office holders are affected by changes in the House of Commons, and those who serve for multiple consecutive Parliaments are generally considered to have served a single term. The term of a government generally ends when it is defeated on a confidence matter or the governing party fails to gain enough seats in a general election.

Senate[edit]

Senators are appointed to the Canadian Senate to represent a province by the Governor General of Canada on the advice of the Prime Minister, and serve until the mandatory retirement age of 75. Senators appointed before the passage of the British North America Act, 1965 served for life. Senators may also resign from office or be expelled from the Senate.

Provincial and Territorial Legislatures[edit]

See also: Legislative assemblies of Canadian provinces and territories

Provincial legislatures and the legislature of the Yukon function very similarly to the federal House of Commons. MLAs (called MPPs in Ontario, MNAs in Quebec, and MHAs in Newfoundland and Labrador) serve for the duration of the legislature, though they may resign before the legislature is dissolved or be elected in by-elections between general elections. The legislatures of the Northwest Territories and Nunavut operate using a consensus model, but are similar otherwise. The premiers and their cabinets are selected in the same way as in the House of Commons, and like at the federal level, the term of a provincial government can be ended by defeat in a general election or the loss of the legislature's confidence.

All provincial legislatures except that of Nova Scotia have fixed-term election legislation in place, as does the legislature of the Northwest Territories. Premiers may also advise Lieutenant Governors to dissolve legislatures at any time before the prescribed election date.

A demotion and diminution of a woman's purpose is certainly demonic. It is driving the world backward in spite of untold technological feats that achieve tremendous wealth, abundance and human comfort.

A demotion and diminution of a woman's purpose is certainly demonic.  It is driving the world backward in spite of untold technological feats that achieve tremendous wealth, abundance and human comfort.  There isn't one human being in this world that has not seen taps that run cold water and most likely they have seen taps that run both hot and cold running water.   God is good in that he chose the Muslim and Arabic speaking people to carry the abundance of the world's energy wealth in the last century that provided the world with more conflict, death, decay and environmental destruction than at any other time in the world's natural and also recorded history.  They were chosen to carry this wealth into our immediate future and it could be because their culture has enshrined a certain dignity for the woman in that she will be honored with her head covered.  They were chosen well in advance.   This is the doing of the God of Heaven and earth.  These Muslim people who put family and children first owe the world and God a great testimony and it is why they win!  They provide for their children.  They understand that there is a natural law and the law cannot be broken.  They honor the lived experience of Abraham with natural law and how even Pharaoh respected Abraham when God confirmed Sara was Abraham's wife.  This reverence brings prosperity.  But, this natural law does not have racial import and nor should it be enforced on other indigenous peoples on the earth since they have their own reverence for natural law that is in accordance with the will of God and Heaven.  We remember the Egyptians and Pharaoh's respect for Abraham But, it may not be that head covering was mandatory for every Egyptian woman.  The Egyptian and the insights God provided to those children of Noah is evident.      Women carry the maternal instinct.  They are mothers and teachers for the current and future generations.  They are wives and partners to members of the opposite gender and as we disregard and denigrate the natural purpose and the honorable role of the woman, we dishonor all nature and also men are dishonored.   The media has ameliorated the non contextual treatment of women.  Magazines tell some young and impressionable women that they have to go to girls gone wild and animal instead of girls gone bible if they are to get a job but they really only want the job to have enough to raise children. That is what they really want. But, by the time they loose their fertility and their teeth in girls gone wild, they loose their dream of a family and then they are very angry; very very angry!  The home is dishonored and the purpose of our various religions is dishonored.   Someone women like Condoleeza once suggested that she may have been born as a boy so she did not have any natural function but was also very angry because of it.  If you multiply this phenomenon several times, it seems to create a whole in the natural realm and the spirit of antithesis seems to present itself.   The suggestion is that if the world denied them of natural presence and function, then the world should pay the ultimate price.  Unfortunately, every human being who does not forgive wrongs suffered is a murderer.  Some follow the spirit of anger instead of forgiveness with great poise and social graces and then they have the position to destroy the whole earth but then it would mean everyone who has suffered various mistreatment should consider anger instead of forgiveness if one or two individuals will be rewarded for their great and terrible anger and the deaths that it has occasioned.  This cannot be but it may be what we have tolerated for too long in our neighborhoods, churches and schools with women and men who may not be satisfied with their lives  for various reasons of a dysfunctional nature.  But, the world cannot pay for their anger. The whole and entire world would never be enough for their anger.  They would wish to kill heaven and peace itself.  So, what do we do now? The world is a smaller place and when men and woman interact in a small place but with greater purpose or agenda to secure and save human life or civilization, you need rules.  Would you have respected Abraham's wife and also Abraham if Abraham was little?  Pharaoh did.  Pharaoh was a great King.  Navies have rules that are predicated on natural law as seen in Abraham's experience. Adultery is a sin.  The law of the navy punishes adultery.  As the world gets smaller with smart phones and globalizing technology, we see community that is also engaged in greater agenda predicated on saving and securing human life.   The planet is a spaceship hurdling through the universe.  Adultery is against the law as it breaks down community and the felicity needed for team cooperation. We have limited resources and cannot underestimate the risk to mankind.  Team cooperation must supersede     the ignorance that, for some, was bliss but it forestalls progress when there is only adultery on the mind of the average man or woman.  They are told to indulge in the fantasy and prepare to facilitate the fantasy to the dismay of all that are invested in the the family's financial endeavors.  But, because the wife spends all day reading about it in magazines, she is ready to believe it will happen if the husband goes out for lunch with a work colleague or an old school friend.  He will also cut the tires of the old school friend and ask his men's lodge to facilitate the school friend's death.  Usually husband's who do this, end up dead since it is just selfish and his fear of  his wife going out for lunch betrays his insecurities but she likes his possessiveness. So, what do we do now?  We put aside a culture that is predicated on death and adultery for entertainment and focus on what we really want while we prepare the future generations accordingly.  This is because killing the world will never be enough but reconciling with the truth of your male or female brain that you will never recognize either way if it is scarred with bad media content is much more important.  This will help us see peace; world peace.  There is quiet again!

You need a body double to go outside in this world with so much anger against against rules; the rules that keep us safe, the rules of the Brit Milah.

Mephiboshethium?

So after King Saul, the Lord said He was looking for those who worship Him in spirit and in truth and not in their celebration of their dna or of their physical appearance.  David was little.  His father thought the biggest son would be what God wanted.   God rejected him since size of flesh has no bearing on the truth and obedience of the spirit.   After David with whom he had reasonable contentedness although even with David, he demonstrated the consequence of ones actions, the consequence of loss, David also lost the Kingdom of Israel.   The notion of a remnant was not a remnant in a Kingdom.  It was a remnant for ministry.  Many of the prophets came from Judah and were also poets.      Jesus came to fulflil the law and the prophets. You can see that the message of the prophets as directed toward the divided Israel and the rebellious Juda is evident. It is not David's or Solomon's rebellion but Rehoboam's. His mother may have been related to Michal or Saul. It seems Michal was the mother.   She was Saul's daughter and David's first wife.   It seems her head was eventually severed not long after Jesus resurrected. I the 15th century, the Mongols were given the head for safe keeping along with Saul's head as the Israelis said they were about to have a war. Holding the heads attracted military conflict and it did not end until the heads were thrown into the Arctic ocean. The ice is now melted.               Jesus ensured that you would hear the message of the other prophets in spite of the word being manipulated.     It was given to the tribe of Ephraim in the Kingdom of eroboam who led the eleven tribes of Israel
     according to the original Hebrew texts.  Jesus may have had the dna but would he pass the test of the four seeds and the three temptations of Christ?

The theory of flight has not changed.  The propeller airplanes of the 1900's, World War one and World War Two pushed the plane forward against air molecules; quite similar to using sails to propel you forward.   You generate enough speed in the turbine with the engine to reach mach speeds while respecting the dynamics of drag and lift to overcome the inertia of gravity.    You could put an engine like that in a KIA Stinger; beautiful!  You could use any fuel to run the turbine or engine that drives the propeller.   If you look at a modern jet engine, the truth is that it is also a turbine propelling the plane forward.  It has little to do with the fuel since you could design a jet engine to run on diesel, kerosene or liquid hydrogen.  Liquid hydrogen is sometimes used for military applications since it is less flammable and also more efficient so that you would have to spend less time refueling and this gives the planes more range for bombing missions.  The drones are powered by hydrogen fuel cells and can be in the air for ten hours or more.  


So, there is no doubt that you could retrofit an old ox cart fighter bomber.  You have about 30 of them sitting in a warehouse and  they could be used to address hotspots around the world.  

    

Some people meditate and say "I am God" based loosely on Psalms 82 while also saying they are white enough. Well, "white enough" is a lot of work all day and maybe you picked up the emotion and tendency from Grandma who asked you if you know mango or June plum.

Some people meditate and say "I am God" based loosely on Psalms 82 while also saying they are white enough. Well, "white enough" is a lot of work all day and maybe you picked up the emotion and tendency from Grandma who asked you if you know mango or June plum. "White enough" violates Psalms 82 and you really couldn't be God but if you say it all day it will give you as much social authority as a leather skirt or a two button white coat from that nouveau  designer.  For some "white enough" meant that you had to agree Michael Jordan is White like Larry Bird but you know he isn't white. You had to agree that the Egyptians who built the pyramids were white in spite of the evidence provided synonymously  by every European, American and Middle Eastern anthropologist or Seventh Day Adventist brilliant religious scholar or any other religious scholar. "White enough" and any deceitful covenant in that vein denies God's power in you to create and to do anything. As it was said , it is "you" that is being sought for consensus and authority as a racially diverse but unified people in great and singular human purpose.   Denying the racial truth of the Egyptians is to deny the power of what you can do. It reduces and divides while you sing God bless  and shed  in racial hatred and racist historical revision.
You will only spin in subterfuge and frustration as you miss being great again. You are probably white enough but who set the standard for white? "White" although you don't know this is being to identify certain symphonies if you were to hear it. "White" is being able to write and read French. That is why you feel someone telling you something about yourself all day as you only speak English and may have eschewed education to confirm you had enough authority to avoid the formality but you would pass as White any where you go but there is another population whose attention and acceptance you seek and they must have told you that being "white enough" is evidence that you missed what they were trying to say non -verbally if it is that you wish to confess continually your sense of insufficiency. So, what do you do now? You are living in conflict.

 "White" or "White enough" could not be deliberate ignorance in spite of your thought about authority.   "White" may be a scrappy French orphan who went up the food chain but he told you that "White" must know his or her symphonies; at least some , that the Egyptians were Black and that you not only read a magazine but you shop at a magazin.   Je suis reconnaissant avec tu? Oui; Je suis! Ton ressens bon!  The truth is that the myth of having authority in your skin only without any education was handed to you by the only people who needed your continual dependency.  There is no doubt you can sing naked, twirl three times in a circle and say "this is all I have" during your French or English exam but it is 2017 and there is no doubt monkeys have been used to sit in spaceships that traveled to orbit.    You are still doing some French orphan from the 16th and 17th century a favor; possibly a governor of Louis the 15th who was castrated at birth as an orphan and told you that Europe is bad except for its finished goods and you would not be allowed to enter but be thankful since you do not need to study or else you will not have real social authority.  You must go to the socials. You must stay together like the orphans, like the rats, like the cockroaches and follow the cue in the emotions and move like a herd; kill anyone who tries to improve or change  anything until we can come back and lead you. Take what you can from who ever you can but if you are captured or killed, you will know they are not passive.  Those who forgive are passive so taunt them until you are killed.   But, try to impress people and try to show them how good you are; that you could be just as good as your creole ancestors who went back to Europe in the 1800's and say  that you know you are related.  This is the dependence for another 5000 years and you will never get away from us although we will go back to the boulevards of Paris and its treasured cafes and parks which is only two days away from the West Indies with a three sail ship.  You must be seen. You must show your willingness to do anything to be seen and to be accepted.  You never know when you will see another male or female sex operation or castration from birth or from the age of 3 or 4 who will recognize how you feel; displaced, confused and as angry as Heaven itself when someone tries to turn the natural order upside down.    You never know who will show up in costume and "maybe you could be or will be if....so cut it off or take the sex operation if you believe you will be..."  How many of you were willing to be him? He's just a graduate and black so why can't you believe it?  You see, you are very angry when you don't speak French and you did not learn the English since you were a pawn and you were told would have authority but you followed it and you are so angry that you don't speak ze french language wiz ze french accent dat you love; c'est bon pour vous! Mais, tu pourriez 'etude le langues tu t'aime!  You act like he turned water into hydrogen fuel or something.     Some of the blackest men in the West Indies with this tradition of illiteracy in the name of false authority follow this with other creoles regardless of hair texture and skin tone so that you would be pawns for the European orphans who taught you how to hold your hands with a knife and fork as you have sought to "go up" so to speak in this culture that invites everyone to participate regardless of complexion, keeping the entire Western hemisphere dependent and essentially masquerade as the former occupants of a garbage dump who arrive in North America from the West Indies at the age of 12  since 1980 right up to 2015 and beyond buy transport in container ships and then they end up in high school for two years, they get a bank job and then a government job.  The officials at the schools are usually White Jamaican who let the students in and the families supporting the new arrival pay some money under the tables.

    The First Epistle of Peter, usually referred to simply as First Peter and often written 1 Peter, is a book of the New Testament. The author presents himself as Peter the Apostle, and the epistle was traditionally held to have been written during his time as bishop of Rome or Bishop of Antioch, though neither title is used in the epistle. The letter is addressed to various churches in Asia Minor suffering religious persecution.

    Authorship

    Main article: Authorship of the Petrine epistles
    The authorship of 1 Peter has traditionally been attributed to the Apostle Peter because it bears his name and identifies him as its author (1:1). Although the text identifies Peter as its author the language, dating, style, and structure of this letter has led many scholars to conclude that this letter is pseudonymous. Many scholars are convinced that Peter was not the author of this letter because the author had to have a formal education in rhetoric/philosophy and an advanced knowledge of the Greek language.^[1]
    Graham Stanton rejects Petrine authorship because 1 Peter was most likely written during the reign of Domitian in AD 81, which is when he believes widespread Christian persecution began, which is long after the death of Peter.^[2] Current scholarship has abandoned the persecution argument because the described persecution within the work does not necessitate a time period outside of the period of Peter.^[3] Many scholars also doubt Petrine authorship because they are convinced that 1 Peter is dependent on the Pauline epistles and thus was written after Paul the Apostle’s ministry because it shares many of the same motifs espoused in Ephesians, Colossians, and the Pastoral Epistles.^[4] Others argue that it makes little sense to ascribe the work to Peter when it could have been ascribed to Paul.^[3] One theory used to support Petrine authorship of 1 Peter is the "secretarial hypothesis", which suggests that 1 Peter was dictated by Peter and was written in Greek by his secretary, Silvanus (5:12). John Elliot, however, suggests that the notion of Silvanus as secretary or author or drafter of 1 Peter represents little more than a counsel of despair and introduces more problems than it solves because the Greek rendition of 5:12 suggests that Silvanus was not the secretary, but the courier/bearer of 1 Peter,^[5] and some see Mark as a contributive amanuensis in the composition and writing of the work.^[6][7] On the one hand, some scholars such as Bart D. Ehrman^[8] are convinced that the language, dating, literary style, and structure of this text makes it implausible to conclude that 1 Peter was written by Peter; according to these scholars, it is more likely that 1 Peter is a pseudonymous letter, written later by one of the disciples of Peter in his honor. On the other hand, some scholars argue that there is not enough evidence to conclude that Peter did not write 1 Peter. For instance, there are similarities between 1 Peter and Peter's speeches in the Biblical book of Acts,^[9] and the earliest attestation of Peter's authorship comes from 2 Peter (AD 60–160)^[10] and the letters of Clement (AD 70-140).^[3] Ultimately, the authorship of 1 Peter remains contested.
    

    Audience

    1 Peter is addressed to the “elect resident aliens” scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia. The five areas listed in 1:1 as the geographical location of the first readers were Roman provinces in Asia Minor. The order in which the provinces are listed may reflect the route to be taken by the messenger who delivered the circular letter. The recipients of this letter are referred to in 1:1 as “exiles of the Dispersion.” In 1:17, they are urged to “live in reverent fear during the time of your exile".^[11] The social makeup of the addressees of 1 Peter is debatable because some scholars interpret “strangers” (1:1) as Christians longing for their home in heaven, some interpret it as literal “strangers”, or as an Old Testament adaptation applied to Christian believers.^[11]
    While the new Christians have encountered oppression and hostility from locals, Peter advises them to maintain loyalty to both their religion and the Roman Empire (1 Peter 2:17).^[12]
    The author counsels (1) to steadfastness and perseverance under persecution (1–2:10); (2) to the practical duties of a holy life (2:11–3:13); (3) he adduces the example of Christ and other motives to patience and holiness (3:14–4:19); and (4) concludes with counsels to pastors and people (chap. 5).

    Context

    The Petrine author writes of his addressees undergoing “various trials” (1 Peter 1:6), being “tested by fire” (1:7), maligned “as evildoers” (2:12) and suffering “for doing good” (3:17). Based on such internal evidence, biblical scholar John Elliott summarizes the addressees’ situation as one marked by undeserved suffering.^[13] Verse (3:19), "Spirits in prison", is a continuing theme in Christianity, and one considered by most theologians to be enigmatic and difficult to interpret.^[14]
    A number of verses in the epistle contain possible clues about the reasons Christians experienced opposition. Exhortations to live blameless lives (2:15; 3:9, 13, 16) may suggest that the Christian addressees were accused of immoral behavior, and exhortations to civil obedience (2:13–17) perhaps imply that they were accused of disloyalty to governing powers.^[1]
    However, scholars differ on the nature of persecution inflicted on the addressees of 1 Peter. Some read the epistle to be describing persecution in the form of social discrimination, while some read them to be official persecution.^{[citation needed]}
    

    Social discrimination of Christians

    Some scholars believe that the sufferings the epistle's addressees were experiencing were social in nature, specifically in the form of verbal derision.^[15] Internal evidence for this includes the use of words like “malign” (2:12; 3:16), and “reviled” (4:14). Biblical scholar John Elliott notes that the author explicitly urges the addressees to respect authority (2:13) and even honor the emperor (2:17), strongly suggesting that they were unlikely to be suffering from official Roman persecution. It is significant to him that the author notes that “your brothers and sisters in all the world are undergoing the same kinds of suffering” (5:9), indicating suffering that is worldwide in scope. Elliott sees this as grounds to reject the idea that the epistle refers to official persecution, because the first worldwide persecution of Christians officially meted by Rome did not occur until the persecution initiated by Decius in AD 250.
    

    Official persecution of Christians

    On the other hand, scholars who support the official persecution theory take the exhortation to defend one's faith (3:15) as a reference to official court proceedings.^[1] They believe that these persecutions involved court trials before Roman authorities, and even executions.^{[citation needed]}
    One common supposition is that 1 Peter was written during the reign of Domitian (AD 81–96). Domitian's aggressive claim to divinity would have been rejected and resisted by Christians. Biblical scholar Paul Achtemeier believes that persecution of Christians by Domitian would have been in character, but points out that there is no evidence of official policy targeted specifically at Christians. If Christians were persecuted, it is likely to have been part of Domitian’s larger policy suppressing all opposition to his self-proclaimed divinity.^[1] There are other scholars who explicitly dispute the idea of contextualizing 1 Peter within Domitian’s reign. Duane Warden believes that Domitian’s unpopularity even among Romans renders it highly unlikely that his actions would have great influence in the provinces, especially those under the direct supervision of the senate such as Asia (one of the provinces 1 Peter is addressed to).^[16]
    Also often advanced as a possible context for 1 Peter is the trials and executions of Christians in the Roman province of Bithynia-Pontus under Pliny the Younger. Scholars who support this theory believe that a famous letter from Pliny to Emperor Trajan concerning the delation of Christians reflects the situation faced by the addressees of this epistle.^[17][18] In Pliny's letter, written in AD 112, he asks Trajan if the accused Christians brought before him should be punished based on the name ‘Christian’ alone, or for crimes associated with the name. For biblical scholar John Knox, the use of the word “name” in 4:14–16 is the “crucial point of contact” with that in Pliny’s letter.^[17] In addition, many scholars in support of this theory believe that there is content within 1 Peter that directly mirrors the situation as portrayed in Pliny’s letter. For instance, they interpret the exhortation to defend one’s faith “with gentleness and reverence” in 3:15–16 as a response to Pliny executing Christians for the obstinate manner in which they professed to be Christians. Generally, this theory is rejected mainly by scholars who read the suffering in 1 Peter to be caused by social, rather than official, discrimination.^{[citation needed]}
    

    The Harrowing of Hell

    Main article: Harrowing of Hell
    The author refers to Jesus, after his death, proclaiming to spirits in prison (3:18–20). This passage, and a few others (such as Matthew 27:52 and Luke 23:43), are the basis of the traditional Christian belief in the descent of Christ into hell, or the harrowing of hell.^[19] Though interpretations vary, some theologians^[who?] see this passage as referring to Jesus, after his death, going to a place (neither heaven nor hell in the ultimate sense) where the souls of pre-Christian people waited for the Gospel. The first creeds to mention the harrowing of hell were Arian formularies of Sirmium (359), Nike (360), and Constantinople (360). It spread through the west and later appeared in the Apostles' Creed".^[19]

The Apostle Peter, when writing his letter as seen in 1st Peter 2 had sent his letter to the Roman citizens in certain parts of the Mediterranean written about 64 AD (about 64 years after Christ's resurrection).

The Apostle Peter, when writing his letter as seen in 1st Peter 2 had sent his letter to the Roman citizens in certain parts of the Mediterranean written about 64 AD (about 64 years after Christ's resurrection).  But, 1st Peter 2 may have been misused by certain English only speaking mulattoish Creoles who looked Certainly white for a brownie kodak camera in the 1800's but maybe not white enough as now decided for a samsung or apple smart phone camera in the current era but may have been born in the West Indies as people who were eventually involved during further European colonization and indoctrination who did not have a full Oxfordian history of the bible in their own personal understanding.   But, they did their very best to tell as many people as possible that God really loves you although there will be some people who will try to take your money, mistreat you and spitefully use you and then you must know your wisdom if you forgive. Forgiving does not mean that you go back to the same dentist who ripped your gums with a drano instead of a fluoride treatment or that you go back to that tri-athlete friend of yours who thinks he is getting authority over you when he puts it in his coffee.  Forgive and just bring your own milk or coke since its is good to have a coke and a smile.

  Forgiveness is the first miracle or act of discipline in becoming a robe or a Jedi.  Do you know June Plum?  Do you know disciples of Christ?  Do you know disciples of Buddha?  Do you know the spirit of murder?  Forgive!     So, now for the "Mephibosheth" mulattoes who covet the authority of the true throne of Israel and who seek to only approximate the message of the prophets  but not fulfill it; who are really the white washed grave stones without substance but who do have the dna of Jacob but the soul of Saul and Judas (white washed; get it?)  that is the mulattoes who are getting nervous again about what is white enough for the honor of their version of Israel in front of a camera with new camera technology and who have decided since 1999 that all Jewish girls should only have one ovary since they might get too heavy, and there are too many cameras now and we can't have too many Maude's  for Israel, maybe they need to change the !#!$# camera so that it says "human" is all you need for the throne of Israel.  If there is a King out there, he already told you!  You will court death otherwise! See the ten commandments for more and read Isaiah 44 one more time!  He brought you death in 1936 and killed all the mulattoish Jewish  people in Germany who got nervous about hair texture and skin tone and who thought they would earn favor by selling out the frizzy haired more Mesopotamian looking, darker pigmented Jewish father or Grandfather by calling the gestapo.  It was just a question of who did they think Israel is?  It is everything!   All you saw during the world war  2 news reels were images of Einstein once a day; the one who talks about infinite energy  and then also an image of Hitler who talked about infinite death.  So, which one will it be one more time for the smart phone camera before you shake not only the Heavens but also the earth in your determined self hatred of humanity as God created it and you will see the authority.

When and To Whom was 1 Peter written?

September 15, 2011 / Wesley / 19 Comments

Before we jump into the text of 1 Peter we are going to look briefly at when the book was written and to whom the book was written.

When it was written

The book claims to be written by Peter.  Those claims are substantiated by the letter itself, as it shows evidence of someone who was an eyewitness to the life of Jesus.  Historically, this is also substantiated by evidence from early Christian writers.  Thus, I believe that the author is the Apostle Peter.  This means that the book has to be written, while Peter was alive (yes,  I know that is a deep statement).
Historically speaking, we are fairly confident that Peter died under the reign of Nero.  The story goes that he was crucified upside down.  This would be around A.D. 67, 68.  Thus we know the book has to be written before then.
Secondly, the book claims to be written from Babylon (5:13).  There is debate about whether this is actual Babylon or, like in the book of Revelation, it is referring to Rome.  My belief is that it is referring to Rome because Babylon was a small village town at this point.  If this is the case, and if we believe history, then Peter was in Rome around A.D. 64.* Thus our lower date is A.D. 64.
Therefore, the book is written somewhere between 64-68 A.D.

To Whom

Verse 1 gives us the answer: “To those who are elect exiles of the dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia.”  He is writing to Christians in these various regions of the Roman Empire. You can see those areas in the map below.

They are called “elect pilgrims.”  Elect has to do with their position before God.  They are God’s chosen people.  Pilgrim has to do with their position in the world, they are strangers in this world.  They no longer “fit in.”
The historical question is:  How was this area evangelized?  It doesn’t appear that they were a part of Paul’s missionary journey, nor any of the missionary work we see in Acts.  This leaves us with three options:  1. They were evangelized by some unknown person.  2.  Peter evangelized the area, but we have no record of it.  This could be since normally letters written to a region are written from someone who has a relationship with the people.  3. They were evangelized by those who heard Peter’s preaching in Acts 2.
Although, again, I’m not dogmatic I lean to these churches having been established by men and women who heard the preaching of Peter in Acts 2, and during their time in Jerusalem afterwards, who then went back to their homeland and taught their neighbors.
*Those are a lot of “ifs” so I am not dogmatic about the lower date.
