2 Peter 3:2-4

Expanded Bible

² I want you to ·think about [remember; recall] the words the holy prophets spoke in the past, and remember the command our Lord and Savior gave us through your apostles [Jude 17]. ³ It is most important for you to understand what will happen in the last days. ·People [^LScoffers] will ·laugh at [scoff at; ridicule] you. They will ·live doing the evil things they want to do [indulge their own desires/lusts; Jude 18]. ⁴ [^LAnd] They will say, “·Jesus promised to come again. Where is he [^LWhere is his promised coming]? [^LFor] Our ·fathers [ancestors] have ·died [^Lfallen asleep], but ·the world [^Lall things] continues the way it has been since ·it was made [it began with creation].”
