Grace and Fire - Part 1

But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed. 2 Peter 3:10(ESV) From the eclipse to the fires to the hurricanes, I’ve heard more theories, ideas, predictions, and fear about the end times then in my recent memory. Some even come with an extra side of bad theology, and others tend to use the Bible more like a Nostradamus prediction. Most severely lack a clear biblical understanding and history, and most betray our American centric perspective. None that I have seen point to a greater Hope. Peter won’t let us maintain such a perspective. In fact, what we are going to look at this week is bigger then America or even the globe. This is truly universal. We will be continuing to look at 2 Peter 3. I want to encourage you to read through the chapter and find what understanding the end produces in the believer.
