Bible Quote Dec 1st 2 Peter 3:10-11
“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. Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives”
2 Peter 3:10-11
===
Some say Peter could not have written his first letter because they don’t believe in adult learning. After Peter’s education as a disciple of Jesus, Peter was privileged and had ample opportunity to learn advanced rhetoric. But the wording here is simple and pure. God is holy. God is exalted and above the sin of which people are immersed. In order to deal with sin, it is important not to deal in sin, but to look for God. The simplicity of the words is what informs those who claim Peter could not have written it. This second letter is different. Peter may have written it differently to serve his purpose as he approached becoming a martyr under Nero. Or it may have been written much later, possibly by another who was knowledgeable of Jude's epistle. Or it may have been adapted later by someone whom Peter entrusted the detail.
Peter was named by Christ as the rock of the Church. He begins his third chapter with "Dear friends, this is now my second letter to you. I have written both of them as reminders to stimulate you to wholesome thinking. I want you to recall the words spoken in the past by the holy prophets and the command given by our Lord and Savior through your apostles."
