The Apostle Peter has made it clear, that though the false teachers were saying Jesus is not coming again and that there is no judgment coming, Jesus is coming back. And He will return in judgment, and in judgment God will destroy the earth and this universe. And when He does, all who have not been forgiven of their sins, in Jesus Christ, will be brought into His judgment. Though, Peter was writing nearly 40 years after Christ had ascended back into heaven, and though we, as the church, have been waiting for Christ's return for nearly 2,000 years, we can rest assure that God is not slow in keeping His promise. But we know that He is patient, and in His patience He is doing His work for His people, bringing all His elect to saving faith. And so we wait. We wait with eager expectation. We wait, pursing holiness and godliness, for we know that God's judgment is coming due to sin, and will destroy this sinful world by fire. But the hope of all who believe is in the promise of the new heavens and earth. The new creation where righteousness dwells.
