1 Peter 1:9-11

Contemporary English Version

⁹ you are to be saved. This is why you have faith.

¹⁰ Some prophets told how God would treat you with undeserved grace, and they searched hard to find out more about the way you would be saved. ¹¹ The Spirit of Christ was in them and was telling them how Christ would suffer and would then be given great honor. So they searched to find out exactly who Christ would be and when this would happen.
