We near the end of chapter 3 as we study the DAY OF THE LORD and our response. In just four verses, Peter gives us some amazing teaching. Read ahead and pray that God will prepare your heart for the worship service!
We learn how Peter assured believers that Jesus would return for His church in spite of mocking voices that challenged God's promise. In our own walk this passage will encourage us that this promise still holds true today. Some day we will "Be Gone", but for now God's patience keeps the door to eternity open for everyone who will repent.
This weekend we begin our final section of 2 Peter entitled Be Gone. As the titles suggests, we will encounter Peter’s teaching about the Second Coming. Before Peter gets into those important matters, he gives us the reason for writing this letter. He felt urgency to remind his readers of what they knew so that they could keep their heads on straight when so many others were losing theirs. Just like Peter’s readers, we occasionally need people who will remind us of the truth and help us keep perspective in confusing times. Just like Peter, we can do the same for others.
