BBE summary for : 2 Peter 3
Summary: 2 Peter Chapter 3 addresses the inevitability of Christ's return and the corresponding judgment of the world. The chapter begins by reminding believers to remember the words spoken by the prophets and apostles regarding the last days, cautioning them against scoffers who question God's promises. It emphasizes that God's perception of time differs from human understanding, reiterating that a day with the Lord is like a thousand years. The chapter highlights the significance of God's patience, as He is not willing that any should perish but desires that all should come to repentance. This affirms the notion of divine mercy. Peter warns that the Day of the Lord will come unexpectedly, leading to the destruction of both the earth and the heavens, thus encouraging believers to live holy and godly lives in anticipation of that day. Finally, Peter offers reassurance by urging Christians to be diligent in their spiritual growth and to remain steadfast in the truth they have received. This call to perseverance reinforces the importance of remaining faithful amidst challenges and distractions. The overarching message is one of hope and preparation, underscoring the promise of the new heavens and new earth where righteousness dwells.
