2 Peter 1:16-21
Christ’s Glory and the Prophetic Word
16 For we did not follow acleverly devised bmyths when we made known to you cthe power and dcoming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but ewe were eyewitnesses of his majesty. 17 For when he received honor and glory from God the Father, and the voice was borne to him by the Majestic Glory, a“This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased,” 18 we ourselves heard this very voice borne from heaven, for we were with him on athe holy mountain. 19 And awe have the prophetic word more fully confirmed, to which you will do well to pay attention bas to a lamp shining in a dark place, until cthe day ddawns and the morning star rises in your hearts, 20 knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture comes from someone’s own interpretation. 21 For ano prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God bas they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
