2PE-3:1 This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in
[both] which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:
2PE-3:2 That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken
before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the
apostles of the Lord and Saviour:
2PE-3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last
days
scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
2PE-3:4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for
since
the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as [they were] from
the
beginning of the creation.
2PE-3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the
word
of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the
water and in the water:
2PE-3:6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with
water, perished:

the
elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the
works
that are therein shall be burned up.
2PE-3:11 [Seeing] then [that] all these things shall be
dissolved,
what manner [of persons] ought ye to be in [all] holy
conversation
and godliness,
2PE-3:12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of
God,
wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the
elements shall melt with fervent heat?
2PE-3:13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new
heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
2PE-3:14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such
things,
be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot,
and
blameless.
