Believers of the Second Coming

Oceanside United Reformed Church

Peter's last letter is an exhortation to grow in the grace & knowledge of Christ as we live in the last days. After encouraging us with the certainty of the Christian life based on the fulfillment of the Old Testament prophetic Scriptures (chapter 1), and warning us about the false teachers with the church (chapter 2). Peter brings this all together with the certain truth of the Second Coming of Jesus. We continue in chapter 3 and what it says about us being believers of the Second Coming in contrast to those who scoff at it.THE SECOND COMINGJesus's use of the word "Parousia"The apostle's use of the word "Parousia"Summary of the New Testament use of "Parousia"JUDGMENTNEW HEAVENS AND EARTH
