first and foremost i thank god for the salvation of my soul.i thing peter his remind us about the second coming of our lord jesus christ,that we the believer should always focus of the things in heaven rather than the the things on earth since all we be destroy. we have to more serious, more focusing and always be ready for the lord coming.
Peter remind the believers that one of the first thing that will surface to shipwreck they faith, is men and women who walks after the own lust fulfilling their own desires in the last days which we are living in as well as the days the apostles live.These earth dwellers as the bible call them the scoffing is to the intent that the believers must lose they eternal hope in Christ returning for his church .God 's in his sovereignty and wisdom,full of mercy choose to suffer with patience so that the souls that are lost should repent and turn to his free gift which is eternal life in Christ Jesus What men may call slackness with God in their finite mind, God in his infinite wisdom could do in one day what a thousand years comprised to do anything. God is a long suffering God.
It 's all good. Peter 's God the Holy Spirit Epistle 's are particularly important and necessary to those involved in ministry which just happens to include all of us redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb.
Many say they love God, but if we may love Him as He is worthy to be loved, we must seek Him. Matthew 6 33 Proverbs 8 17 Proverbs 8 35 John 17 3 We cannot grow in grace and in the knowledge of Jesus without faith. Hebrews 11 6. God rewards them that diligently seek Him by giving us knowldge, understanding, and wisdom. We must increase in wisdom and in favor with God as did Jesus. Luke 2 52
I think verse nine is saying that the lord will fufill his promise and u dont have too worry about him breaking it and i also think it 's saying that none should perish but come to him in repentance and that 's what i think that verse is saying and by the way in only 11 stay strong in Jesus everybody
lets devote in persuing righteousness and love others ,for in doing so God will abide in us and us in Him,the bible says that he who loves the world the love of God is not Him,lets devote to loving our God,Jesus said whoever loves Him keeps His commandments.Peace be with you all!
From verse 5 and on you read of the first earth age created beautiful Isaiah 45 18 and then you see the age destroyed Jeremiah 4 22 and on and you wonder and see in Rev. 12 4 Satan the dragon stole a third of God 's children the same that was rejoicing in Job 38 7 and Proverbs 8 31 and reading proverbs 8 20 and on you see God created earth with wisdom and not chaos.
God,is a man of war and everything that has been done to his beloved people 'sthe nations of Israel he is going to pay back those who lead us into capitavie shall go into capative.

God is indeed a merciful God he is wanting for u and me to come to repentence he is not please that we should spend iternity in Hell let change our ways our ungodly lifestyle and surrender to him just receive him into ur life today cos time is not there for u and me our lives is a borrowed life and he can decide to take it at anytime
I thank and praise GOD HIS holy word is true and is able to keep you from falling I am a child of GOD who is continually blessed You have to know your are blessed To know your blessed and that GOD Is blessing you is a blessing You won t become a scoffer because you will give GOD the glory Grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and savior JESUS CHRIST IS TO LEARN THAT WE ARE CHILDREN OF GOD AND NO MATTER WHAT the enemy say JESUS CHRIST HAVE SAVED US FROM OUR SINS AND WILL PERFORM UNTIL THE DAY OF JESUS CHRIST
as we run this race let us keep in remembrance the day of the Lord is near and is coming as thief so let us guard against every evil deed that can alter our destinies The Lord is not slack concerning his promise as some men count slackness but is longsuffering to us ward not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance verse 9 he is a merciful Lord that every minute that he add to our lives He is just giving us another chance that nomatter how much we have sinned He is giving that minute or day to make up whatever you break up he wants everyone to enter eternity Someboby be reminded that if you havent received Christ as your personal Lord n Saviour God is waiting for you jus receive Him and be saved God loves you and is jus waiting for a willing somebody The time is near Can you just surrender to Him
In the KJV it is translated as The Lord is not slack concerning his promise as some men count slackness but is longsuffering to us ward not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance The words any and all figure prominently here and at first glance it is quite easy to see how the conclusion can be drawn that God wants all men to be saved But a more careful reading of the verse shows that the word us ward precedes any and all We re then forced to ask the question Who are the us of whom Peter speaks Verse 1 of the Chapter has a clue It says This second epistle beloved I now write unto you in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance This means then that this is a second letter This implies then that there is a first Thankfully we have that letter and it is in the Canon of scripture The Epistle of 1st Peter begins Peter an apostle of Jesus Christ to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus Galatia Cappadocia Asia and Bithynia 2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father through sanctification of the Spirit unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ Grace unto you and peace be multiplied From this we can deduce the following re 2 Peter 3 9 what he is really saying is The Lord is not slack concerning his promise as some men count slackness but is longsuffering to us ward the Elect of God not willing that any of the Elect of God should perish but that all of the Elect of God should come to repentance
This is a very good scipture explaining how Jehovah God views time. It also gives insight into the creative days in the first chapter of Genesis. Many believe the first 6 creative days were actually 24 hour days. But those days were thousand of years. We didn't have the sun to make rotations that count as our 24 hour days, so how could it be 24 hour days. It was acually 1000 of years.
The outerspace was designed for smog-fumes etc to go into and now through the space station enterprises there are over 400,000 pieces of space junk floating around at lower earth level-4-500 KM above earth burning at 2000 degrees. The gases used by these in shuttling them into space is toxi so it is ruining our air-and polluting our oceans and earth by the pieces falling back into the ocean or onto earth. On top of this the ones that may collide in space and hit another one and breaking into up to 100 pieces to hit another one. These pieces are travelling at horrendous speeds around the earth. Edmonton Alberta Canada is one example where they had to come in with suits on to clean up the mess when junk from a shuttle landed as these pieces are all toxic. I think they would have been much better off to provide insurance and food for families that cant afford it instead of spending billions of dollars going into space-that may or may not cause a disaster beyond our imagination.
God said he would never again destroy the earth but what about man.
I believe it means exactly what it says. Yes Jesus saves, but Jesus is not the minister of sin. How can your sins be forgiven if you have not repented and forsaken your sins first. If you trust in Jesus, you must also trust in the all the word of God, you must trust in the words of his apostles and disciples and the disciples of the apostles because they are the ones of whom you read about Jesus from. We are saved by grace, and not by our own works, it is the work of God in us through the power of his word and of the Holy Spirit. Why else would the apostle that taught us that we are saved buy grace have said that where sin doth abound, grace much more doth abound, what then, should I sin so that grace would abound?, God forbid. (heavens No). I should not sin because the grace of God is working in me and through me to overcome the sin of the world so that I can show for the person of Jesus Christ to the world, so then if it is the grace of God through the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ working in me, it no more I that is doing the work but God in me doing it. If I take the credit then it is no more God working in me and I have fallen from grace and am depending on my own works to save me. That is how James could say I will show you my faith by my works, as he believed that God was manifesting his works through him.
what i get from this is Gods mercy is holding these thing back only he not in a hurry to destroy his creation.one day or a thousand year all the same to him lets get busy as sons and tell the Great Story of JESUS and his LOVE. HE LOVE US.SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH I CAN'T WAIT TO LOOK ON HIS FACE THE ONE WHO DIED FOR ME.
What false doctrine. Works don't save ( Rom 4:5) Water doesn't save ( 1 Pt 1:18)(water is corruptible), church membership doesn't save , sacraments doesn't save, etc. JESUS SAVES! Trust Him and nothing else and go to Heaven. Trust something else and enter hell ( Acts 4:12).
The word of God is undissputable,this world shall melt away with fire, afterward the new earth shall descend from heaven where the saints and the meek shall inherit, not this corrupted earth and Jesus is the one to judge the world, because He is the only access to God's kingdom.
God said he would never again destroy the earth but what about man.
