Coming – 2 Peter 3:4
2 Peter 3:4 They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.” We are an impatient people.

Groupie – 2 Peter 2:17
2 Peter 2:17 These people are springs without water and mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness is reserved for them.

Eyewitness – 2 Peter 1:16

Day 220
2 Peter 2 Deeds of false teachers Key Verses: 3, 9, 12, 16, 19, 22 The motives of false teachers seem to always be the same. They want power, influence and money. They will stop at nothing to get it.

Day 219
2 Peter 1 Add virtue to faith Key Verses: 1, 3, 8, 13, not done 16, 20, 21 How do we become pleasing to God? Peter answers this in very plain language.
