The Day of the Lord Is Coming

1 This is my second letter to you, dear friends, and in both of them I have tried to stimulate your wholesome thinking and refresh your memory. 2 I want you to remember and understand what the holy prophets said long ago and what our Lord and Savior commanded through your apostles.

3 First, I want to remind you that in the last days there will be scoffers who will laugh at the truth and do every evil thing they desire. 4 This will be their argument: "Jesus promised to come back, did he? Then where is he? Why, as far back as anyone can remember, everything has remained exactly the same since the world was first created." (NLT)

Peter wants to remind us of the things that the prophets have told us. First they predicted the coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and His death, burial and resurrection and those things came true. They came true in God’s timing not human timing. Second the prophets predicted that Jesus would return and the world would be judged. Jesus also told us that He would return and He will, not in the human time frame but in God’s timing.

Also scoffers will come and deny who Jesus is and will try to convince even the believers that Jesus is not who He said He is. They will laugh at the truth because their father is the devil and He was a liar from the beginning. They will make up all kinds of things to try to disprove the truth but their day of judgement is coming.

Stand firm in the faith, put on the full armor of Christ and follow Him wherever He leads you. Be ready in season and out of season. Be the Light of Christ everywhere you go. Love as Jesus loves you, do not fear for He is always with you and He will never leave you or forsake you.
