1 THIS second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I rouse up your sincere mind by awakening your recollection 2 to remember the words, that have been spoken aforetime by the holy prophets, and the injunction of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour: 3 knowing this principally, that in the last of the days there will come scoffers, walking after their own lewd passions, 4 and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue in the same state as from the beginning of the creation. 2 Peter 3:1-4, Haweis New Testament.
