Bible Verse of the Day Saturday June 3rd ,2023

2 Peter 3:14 - "Therefore, beloved, since you look for these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, spotless and blameless,"

As Peter finishes his natural life, there is by all accounts a rising desire to caution the followers of Christ of the mounting risk of false teachers, whom the Apostle Peter distinguished as rebellious and deceitful humans, bent on furthering Satan's cause on earth. However, he assures us that such false teachers will irrevocably be destroyed at the second coming of Christ Jesus when He comes back to this world to set up His Millennial Kingdom. Peter is also ardent to awaken the believer's awareness of the many trials and tribulations Christians will go through on earth as the end approaches.

 

Ultimately, these disdainers will attempt to scorn our blessed hope in Christ Jesus when He returns to earth to take us to be with Him for eternity. These ungodly unbelievers will not only refuse to recognize the truth of God's Word but will attempt to reject Him as the almighty creator of heaven and earth. However, the "day of the Lord" will be a great surprise and shock to all denying Christ Jesus as the Son of God. Not only will the "Day of the Lord" overwhelm these malevolent humans without anyone noticing; however, Peter even reminds us about happenings that will occur toward the finish of Christ's Millennial rule, when the sky will die with an extraordinary commotion, the components will dissolve due to the severe intensity and the earth and all that is in it will be set on fire - after which God will create another paradise, a new earth. Regarding all that Peter has told us of the heavenly power and commitments of God, along with stunning occasions that are soon to happen on the planet, believers are admonished: "Since you look for these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, spotless and blameless,"

 

Spiritual Christians look forward to the second coming of Jesus. This anticipation keeps us at the summit of our spiritual performance; we operate at a maximum, not at our minimum. But unfortunately, those who do not have Christ in their hearts and souls have little or no anticipation for the future. These lost souls may hold a high degree of worldly education but remain ignorant of what is coming when Our Lord and Savior returns to take His Children home.
