But the heavens and the earth, which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. II Peter 3:7-9
But the heavens and the earth, which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. II Peter 3:7-9
The Day of the Lord is coming, in which everything will perish in the fire of God's judgment! Are you ready? There has been much talk of the Rapture or catching away of the Saints that happens before the great tribulation and then seven years of Hell!
There have been many dreams and visions reported about the return of the Lord, and I believe we are in the midst of the last days! No one knows the hour or the day, but we can discern the signs of the times. It seems the earth is reeling from the sin and rebellion of man, with lawlessness growing, and people becoming demon-possessed!
Now is the time to seek the Lord, and if you are not saved, ask the Lord to forgive your sins and surrender your life to Him! Be in prayer for your lost family members and friends because the time is short, and what Jesus promised will come to pass!
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless, we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. II Peter 3:10-13
