II PETER FORETELLS OF FALSE TEACHERS
Cards II PETER FORETELLS OF II Peter is a very important book for the twenty first century because it deals with the very issues confronting the modern church; laxity of lifestyle based on false doctrine. Some church members in Peter’s time were arguing that the doctrine of the Second Coming had to be reconsidered, “The plain fact is that Christ had not returned yet,” they said, “and he probably won’t” (see 3:4,9). In fact, they suggested that this doctrine may have been invented by the apostles rather than revealed by God (1:16), perhaps to keep Christians in line. The doctrine of the Second Coming was sort of a moral club used to inhibit one’s lifestyle. In contrast, the false teachers were saying that behavior does not matter. Freedom was their catchword, and evidently they felt free FALSE TEACHERS to indulge in sexual immorality, drunkenness, and immoral actions generally. “Not so!” roars Peter in this letter. And it is his “not so” that we need to hear in this day of ungodly lifestyles. We, too, need to remain firmly established within the truth we received from the prophets and from our Lord. We, too, need to be warned against those who would lead people away from the truth. And we, too, need to be reminded (in a passage that is chillingly real in this nuclear age) that the world will one day end when the Lord returns (chapter 3). END OF WORLD

UNFAITHFUL CHRISTIANS ARE LIKE
THE DOG EATING HIS OWN VOMIT If one who has been converted is enticed back again into his sins his state is worse than before. That this is possible is taught in many places. To other sins there is then added the sin of rejecting the way of righteousness after an experimental knowledge of it. Such a repulsive course can be compared only with the most disgusting habits of unclean animals.

ON THE DAY OF JUDGMENT THE EARTH WILL BE
BURNED UP The works that are to perish in the fire which shall ultimately destroy the earth are those which belong to the earth and are characteristic of it, whether of God or man. Along with its dissolution there will be the burning of all that man has accomplished of a material nature—houses, cities, monuments, etc.—everything to which he has set his hand here. These, along with all God’s material creation, are to be dissolved, consumed in the heat of the mighty catastrophe. The manner in which the Lord will accomplish this not stated, and it is idle to speculate. It is sufficient of us to know that it will occur; the manner in which the Lord purposes to do it remains hidden in the counsel of his own will.
