According to Peter, what was the benefit of faith?

Faith brings about “indescribable and glorious joy.” (NRSV, I Peter 1:8). Also, faith brings about “the salvation of [their] souls.” (NRSV, I Peter 1:9) Peter emphasized the role of prayer in an active faith. He wrote, “Cast all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.” (NRSV, I Peter 5:7)
