1 IT has been a long time since I have writ ten you, my beloved, but now I write you this second epistle; in both of them I have endeavored to stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance: 2 That you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment, given through us, the Apostles of our LORD and Saviour: 3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days mockers who scoff, following after their own lusts, 4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since our fathers passed away, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. 2 Peter 3:1-4, Lamsa Bible.
