The Second Epistle of Peter June 13, 2010 Sermon Lesson 6 2 Peter 1:19-21
CHRIST'S SECOND COMING ATTESTED BY HOLY SCRIPTURE
We do well to pay attention to the prophetic word concerning Christ's coming.
• Because the prophetic word is made more certain through the Transfiguration (19)
o The prophetic word is like “a lamp shining in a dark place” (19b)
o The lamp is only needed until the day dawns and the morning star rises (19b)
• Because the prophetic word comes from God Himself (20-21)
o Prophecy is not the prophets' own interpretation (20)
o Prophecy is God's Word through men carried along by the Holy Spirit (21)
Applications:
How are we “paying attention to the prophetic word” today? Private worship Public reading of the Word Public teaching and preaching of the Word Applying the Scripture as we prepare for His coming
