An Ordinary Man: #34 Something to be Sure Of

Today we close our series An Ordinary Man: The Life and Writings of the Apostle Peter by looking at one of Jesus’ most certain yet most ignored promises: His return.Peter reminds us in 2 Peter 3:3–15 that scoffers will say, “Where is this coming he promised?” But history itself proves that God interrupts the ordinary with unexpected, world-changing events—the creation, the flood, the incarnation, the resurrection. The greatest of these “black swan” events will be the second coming of Christ: sudden, spectacular, and absolutely certain.For those in Christ, His return as Judge is good news—because we are forgiven and clothed in His righteousness. But for those who reject Him, it will be a day of unpreparedness and regret. Peter’s message is simple: expect the unexpected, and live ready.Support the show
