As we finish the book of 2 Peter, we remember that Peter has shown us that we can trust the Word of God, because the men who wrote down the words of Scripture were all inspired by the Holy Spirit, therefore the Bible is dependable, inspired, and it’s how we hear from God. In the […]
With our final chapter in 2 Peter, we could give it the title “The end of the world as we know it.” 2 Peter 3:1: “This is now, beloved, the second letter I am writing to you in which I am stirring up your sincere mind by way of reminder,” Peter begins the chapter by […]
Second Peter chapter 2 has been a difficult study for us because we are taking a deep dive into false teachers, investigating their characteristics and methods of operation, it revels the very core of their depravity. The danger of false teachers is so great that the Holy Spirit used both Peter and Jude to warn […]
In our last study we learned a little more about the lengths in which satan will use false teachers to do his dirty work. Throughout the New Testament Scriptures we receive numerous warnings to the fact that false teachers will immerge, and they have. There’s no easy way to know just how many there have […]
Last week Peter instructed us that false teachers would rise up among us. Even though this started during Peter’s time, it’s been going on for centuries and exists still today.

As we move ahead to chapter 2 of 2 Peter, let’s remember the pearls of wisdom we gained from chapter 1.

In verses 5 through 7 in 2 Peter chapter 1, Peter gave us seven characteristics for the Christian to aspire to. Just as a review they are: moral excellence or virtue, knowledge, self-control, perseverance or patience, godliness, brotherly love, and agape love. He told us that each of these characteristics builds off one another. Why […]
So far in 2 Peter, we’ve been reminded that we are bond-servants of God… slaves of God. We know that we share the very same faith as the apostles had. When God sees us, He sees us through the lens of Christ’s righteousness and not our own. As believers in Jesus Christ we have a […]
As we leave the book of First Peter and enter his second letter, we should take a brief look back to First Peter to remember the jewels of wisdom with which we were blessed. Peter’s letter reached far and wide, and his audience was Jews, Christians, pagans, free citizens and slaves – and of course, […]
