This verse is one of the clearest statements of Christ's substitutionary atonement in the Bible and should be as familiar to us as John 3:16.
Having encouraged us to suffer for doing what is right (v.14), with a good conscience (v.16), and according to God's will (v.17), Peter points us to the perfect example of Christ who suffered for doing what is right, with a good conscience, and according to God's will.
But we have in Christ something far greater than an example, we have a Redeemer who delivers us from sin and death, and raises us to life and righteousness.
