Read 2 Peter 3:11 Using Other Translations
What does 2 Peter 3:11 mean?
[Seeing] then [that] all these things shall be
dissolved,
&c.] By fire; the heaven with all its host, sun, moon, and
stars, clouds, meteors, and fowls of the air; the earth, and all
that is upon it, whether of nature, or art; and, since nothing is
more certain than such a dissolution of all things,
what manner [of persons] ought ye to be in [all] holy
conversation
and godliness?
not as the scoffers and profane sinners, who put away this evil
day far from them, but as men, who have their loins girt, and
their lights burning, waiting for their Lord's coming; being
continually in the exercise of grace, and in the discharge of
their religious duties, watching, praying, hearing, reading;
living soberly, righteously, and godly; guarding against
intemperance and worldly mindedness, and every worldly and
hurtful lust.
