This is the fourth video of my response to Nick Craig's series against Calvinism. In this video, I address his claim that I and II Peter were written exclusively to ethnic Jews, and therefore don't apply to Gentile believers or support unconditional election for the church.

In this video, I examine:

- Who the audience of I and II Peter actually was (Jews only or Jews and Gentiles?)

- Acts 15:7 and Peter's commission to preach to the Gentiles

- I Peter 2:9-10 and the "royal priesthood" - how it differs from the Old Covenant priesthood

- I Peter 1:18-19 and redemption from idol worship (a Gentile background)

- I Peter 4:3 and "the will of the Gentiles" - direct evidence of Gentile believers in Peter's audience

- How Peter and Paul both quote Hosea 2:23 regarding Gentile inclusion

- Why there is no ultimate distinction between Jew and Gentile in the church
