3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
In this passage, Peter warns that in the last days, scoffers will mock the promise of Jesus Christ’s return. They will ridicule biblical prophecy, claiming that nothing has changed and that God does not intervene in human history.
This prophecy is currently being fulfilled. More and more people reject the Bible, deny the return of Jesus Christ, and dismiss the prophecies of the last days as myths or legends. This attitude is exactly what Peter foretold.
This passage encourages believers not to be discouraged by unbelief or ridicule. The fact that some reject God’s promises does not prevent their fulfillment. Jesus Christ will return at the time appointed by God, and every prophecy concerning the last days will be fulfilled with certainty.
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
In this passage, Paul explains that those who deliberately reject the truth of the Gospel will be deceived by the lies of the Antichrist. Because they refuse to receive Jesus Christ and love the truth, they will fall under a powerful spiritual deception.
These events will take place during the Great Tribulation, when the Antichrist and the False Prophet will deceive the world through false signs and miracles. Those who have persistently rejected the truth will be given over to a strong delusion, causing them to believe the lies of the Antichrist instead of the truth of God.
This passage highlights the seriousness of deliberately rejecting the Gospel. God offers everyone the opportunity to receive Jesus Christ and be saved. But those who continually refuse the truth will become vulnerable to the greatest deception the world has ever known, emphasizing the importance of responding to God’s call today.
37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
In this passage, Jesus compares the last days to the time of Noah. People continued with their normal daily lives, ignoring God’s warnings. They were eating, drinking, marrying, and carrying on as if judgment would never come, until the day the Flood arrived suddenly.
These words apply to the Rapture of the Church. Just as in Noah’s day, the world will continue its ordinary activities without preparing for the Lord’s return. While many ignore God’s warnings, Jesus Christ will suddenly come for His Church, and those who have rejected His salvation will then enter the Tribulation.
This passage reminds us that the return of Jesus Christ will come unexpectedly for those who are living apart from God, just as the Flood caught the people of Noah’s generation by surprise. It is a call to receive salvation through Jesus Christ today and to live in constant readiness for His coming.
« The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. »
In this verse, Peter answers those who believe that Jesus Christ is delaying His return. He explains that this apparent delay is not because God is unfaithful to His promise, but because of His patience and mercy toward humanity.
God’s desire is for people to repent and turn to Him before the time of grace comes to an end. For this reason, He continues to give everyone the opportunity to receive salvation through faith in Jesus Christ.
This verse reveals the heart of God. He is patient, compassionate, and gives every person the opportunity to respond to His invitation. It reminds us that the return of Jesus Christ is certain, but until that day, God continues to extend His grace, calling all who are willing to come to Him.
