The Climax of the Ages

But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare.

2 Peter 3:10

Here we are at the thrill-packed climax of the letter.  The thrills are not just in the action, but in the application that Peter gives us, so that we might be pointed in the right direction. Yes, the Great Day will come!  When it does, Jesus will come to judge… and in spite of all of the noise we hear today from End Times teachers, everybody will be surprised, for He will come like a thief… suddenly and without warning… and then big things will take place.

Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives as you…
