Above all, you do well if you recognize this: No prophecy of scripture ever comes about by the prophet’s own imagination,

since I know that my tabernacle will soon be removed, because our Lord Jesus Christ revealed this to me.

Above all, understand this: In the last days blatant scoffers will come, being propelled by their own evil urges

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.

Now, dear friends, do not let this one thing escape your notice, that a single day is like a thousand years with the Lord and a thousand years are like a single day.
