Second Peter

July 2011

Second Peter is, for many of us, both a strange and unfamiliar book of Scripture. In this letter Peter repeatedly takes his troubled readers back to the promises of God, which he describes in 2 Peter 1:4 as “great and very precious.” These promises form the bedrock of our lives as believers, both granting us entrance into eternal life and encouraging us now in our daily lives. In this series we’ll explore the power, certainty, importance, and urgency of these promises as they relate to our assurance of eternal life and our growth in grace through this idea of godliness as it relates to our salvation, our sanctification, and our witness before the world."
