2 Peter 3:14

Compare all

12 ^alooking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will ^bbe dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will ^cmelt with fervent heat?

13 Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for ^anew heavens and a ^bnew earth in which righteousness dwells.

Be Steadfast

14 Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent ^ato be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless;

15 and consider that ^athe longsuffering of our Lord is salvation—as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you,

16 as also in all his ^aepistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the ^brest of the Scriptures.

17 You therefore, beloved, ^asince you know this beforehand, ^bbeware lest you also fall from your own steadfastness, being led away with the error of the wicked;

2 Peter 3:14

Seeing that ye look for such things - As ye profess that such a state of things shall take place, and have the expectation of enjoying the blessedness of it, be diligent in the use of every means and influence of grace, that ye may be found of him - the Lord Jesus, the Judge of quick and dead, without spot - any contagion of sin in your souls, and blameless - being not only holy and innocent, but useful in your lives.
