Perhaps of all the apostles, most Christians find themselves most readily drawn to Simon Peter. His failure, restoration and subsequent usefulness provide hope for those who face testing and temptation. Despite that, Peter's twin epistles are probably given less attention than many other sections of the New Testament. But they continue to speak with power and relevance. They provide encouragement and assurance from one who himself needed both; they give basic instruction in Christian living; they also provide clear teaching on false doctrine. They are therefore essential letters for Christians today. Nisbet's outstanding practical treatment is an ideal aid for preachers, teachers, group leaders and all students or readers of the Bible.

We must prepare for eternity and we cannot put this off until we think it is imminent. Ecclesiastes 12 urges this wise instruction through striking pictures of physical decline. Alexander Nisbet draws out the way in which this spiritual wisdom applies urgently to each one of us.
