Submission In The Workplace
Peter continues the theme of submission to authority introduced in 1 Peter 2:13-17 where he instructed how we are to live in the civic realm: “Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the emperor.” He now calls believers to likewise submit to authority in the workplace, regardless whether treatment there is gentle or is unjust. In a future message, he will exhort trust in God as necessary and gracious in God’s sight, urging us to follow the example of Christ who suffered and entrusted himself to him who judges justly.
