Reserved For Fire

The Coming Day of the Lord


First of all, know [without any doubt] that mockers will come in the last days with their mocking, following after their own human desires and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming [what has become of it]? For ever since the fathers fell asleep [in death], all things have continued [exactly] as they did from the beginning of creation.” 

For they willingly forget [the fact] that the heavens existed long ago by the word of God, and the earth was formed out of water and by water,  through which the world at that time was destroyed by being flooded with water.
But by His word the present heavens and earth are being reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly people.

Nevertheless, do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years is like one day.
The Lord does not delay [as though He were unable to act] and is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is [extraordinarily] patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.

A New Heaven and Earth

But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will vanish with a [mighty and thunderous] roar, and the [material] elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and the works that are on it will be burned up.

Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be [in the meantime] in holy behavior [that is, in a pattern of daily life that sets you apart as a believer] and in godliness [displaying profound reverence toward our awesome God],  [while you earnestly] look for and await the coming of the day of God. For on this day the heavens will be destroyed by burning, and the [material] elements will melt with intense heat!  

But in accordance with His promise we expectantly await new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.

So, beloved, since you are looking forward to these things, be diligent and make every effort to be found by Him [at His return] spotless and blameless, in peace [that is, inwardly calm with a sense of spiritual well-being and confidence, having lived a life of obedience to Him].  

And consider the patience of our Lord [His delay in judging and avenging wrongs] as salvation [that is, allowing time for more to be saved]; just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you according to the wisdom given to him [by God],  speaking about these things as he does in all of his letters. In which there are some things that are difficult to understand, which the untaught and unstable [who have fallen into error] twist and misinterpret, just as they do the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction. 

Therefore, [let me warn you] beloved, knowing these things beforehand, be on your guard so that you are not carried away by the error of unprincipled men [who distort doctrine] and fall from your own steadfastness [of mind, knowledge, truth, and faith],  but grow [spiritually mature] in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory (honor, majesty, splendor), both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.

2 Peter 3

China's Xi Warns Of 'Crushed Bodies' Amid Escalating Chaos And Violence in Hong Kong

China's President Xi Jinping has warned that any attempt to divide China will end in "crushed bodies and shattered bones.” While he didn’t mention any names, the comments, made during a state visit to Nepal, were seen as a warning to pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong.

Police have been successful using plain-clothes officers who are embedded with the protesters.

Vigilante “justice” is also being carried out by the mobs. Television footage showed two women being separately assaulted and having black paint splashed on their faces as their attackers held up opened umbrellas to hide their actions.

AFP: French police hold five Muslims over deadly knife Religion of Terrorism attack

The Islam motivated killings have raised serious questions about how police failed to notice various signs of Harpon's Islamic radicalisation in recent years, despite France being on high alert over a wave of deadly Muslim jihadist attacks.

One of the people Muslims from the religion of terrorism detained Monday was an imam who preached at an Islam mosque Harpon attended in Gonesse, who is on France's "Fiche S" list of potential security risks, one source told AFP.
 
We godless socialist (idiots) are very tolerant of evil, not so with Jesus and truth.

"The structure collapsed because of intense rain and hail," police said.

 The costume party was part of festivities in honor of Catholic saint Francis of Assisi.

With paganized Christianity in Central & South America, and the rest of the pagan Catholic world they worship and honor anyone but Jesus !
