As the apostle Paul drew his second letter to a close, he sought to stir up what he called the “sincere (pure) mind” of his readers by reminding them of a truth which the prophets, the Lord and the apostles themselves had spoken. The truth refuted by the mockers (scoffers) of their day, was that the end would eventually come and everything as they presently knew it would cease to exist.
Based upon this truth, Peter then asked them a question which is equally applicable to us today “what sort of people ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness?”
It is a true statement as has ever been made. There is coming a day when God will send His Son to judge every person living or dead and our eternal destination will be determined by His verdict. What will He say about you?
