2 Peter 2:21-22
2:21 For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than, having known it, to turn back from the holy commandment that had been delivered to them.
2:22 They are illustrations of this true proverb:
“
A dog returns to its own vomit,”
and “A sow, after washing herself,
wallows in the mire.”
2 Peter 1:13
1:13 Indeed, as long as I am in this tabernacle,
I consider it right to stir you up by way of a reminder,
2 Peter 2:13
2:13 suffering harm as the wages for their harmful ways.
By considering it a pleasure to carouse in broad daylight,
they are stains and blemishes, indulging
in their deceitful pleasures when they feast together with you.
2 Peter 3:10
3:10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief; when it comes,
the heavens will disappear
with a horrific noise,
and the celestial bodies
will melt away
in a blaze,
and the earth and every deed done on it
will be laid bare.
2 Peter 1:21
1:21 for no prophecy was ever borne of human impulse; rather, men
carried along by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.
2 Peter 3:4
3:4 and saying,
“Where is his promised return?
For ever since
our ancestors
died,
all things have continued as they were
from the beginning of creation.”

3:6 Through these things
the world existing at that time was destroyed when it was deluged with water.
2 Peter 3:18
3:18 But grow in the grace and knowledge
of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the honor both now and on
that eternal day.
2 Peter 1:19
1:19 Moreover,
we
possess the prophetic word as an altogether reliable thing.
You do well if you pay attention
to this
as you would
to a light shining in a murky place, until the day dawns and the morning star
rises in your hearts.
2 Peter 2:20
2:20 For if after they have escaped the filthy things
of the world through the rich knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,
they
again get entangled in them and succumb to them,
their last state has become worse for them than their first.
2 Peter 3:5
3:5 For they deliberately suppress this fact,
that by the word of God
heavens existed long ago and an earth
was formed out of water and by means of water.
2 Peter 3:12
3:12 while waiting for and hastening
the coming of the day of God?
Because of this day,
the heavens will be burned up and
dissolve, and the celestial bodies
will melt away in a blaze!
2 Peter 1:14-15
1:14 since I know that my tabernacle will soon be removed,
because
our Lord Jesus Christ revealed this to me.
1:15 Indeed, I will also make every effort that, after my departure, you have a testimony of these things.
2 Peter 1:18
1:18 When this voice was conveyed from heaven, we ourselves
heard it, for we were with him on the holy mountain.
2 Peter 3:11
3:11 Since all these things are to melt away
in this manner,
what sort of people must we
be, conducting our lives in holiness and godliness,
2 Peter 2:1
The False Teachers’ Ungodly Lifestyle
2:1 But false prophets arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. These false teachers will infiltrate your midst with destructive heresies, even to the point of denying the Master who bought them. As a result, they will bring swift destruction on themselves.
2 Peter 2:5
2:5 and if he did not spare the ancient world, but did protect Noah, a herald of righteousness, along with seven others,
when God
brought a flood on an ungodly world,
2 Peter 2:10
2:10 especially those who indulge their fleshly desires
and who despise authority.
Brazen and insolent, they are not afraid to insult the glorious ones,
