2 Peter 3:11-18

« 2 Pet 22 Pet 31 John 1 »

11 Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what sort of people ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, 12 ^alooking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which ^bthe heavens burning will be destroyed, and the ^celements will melt with intense heat! 13 But according to His ^apromise we are looking for ^bnew heavens and a new earth, ^cin which righteousness dwells.

Be on Your Guard

14 ^aTherefore, ^bbeloved, since you are looking for these things, be diligent to be ^cfound by Him in peace, ^dspotless and blameless, 15 and consider the ^apatience of our Lord as salvation, just as also ^bour beloved brother Paul, ^caccording to the wisdom given him, wrote to you, 16 as also in all his letters, speaking in them of ^athese things, ^bin which are some things hard to understand, which the untaught and ^cunstable distort, as they do also ^dthe rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction. 17 You therefore, ^abeloved, knowing this beforehand, ^bbe on your guard lest you, having been carried away by ^cthe error of ^dunprincipled men, ^efall from your own steadfastness, 18 but grow in the grace and ^aknowledge of our ^bLord and Savior Jesus Christ. ^cTo Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.
