Remember A manual on fighting against falling away A series in 2 Peter This summer we’re working through 2 Peter verse-by-verse. There are 66 books in the Bible, and 2 Peter is #61. It’s only three chapters, and a total of 61 verses. It’s a short New Testament letter, but it packs a punch. This letter is a training manual on how to fight against falling away from faith in Jesus. Peter has credibility on the topic of falling away. He denied even knowing Jesus 3 times in his hour of greatest need. At the Last Supper, Peter claimed to be Jesus’ closest friend, and then he ran away from all of it. But he returned. In this short letter, Peter uses the word “remind” or “reminder” 3 times. That’s why this series is titled Remember. Fight against falling away (2 Peter 3:14-18) 1.) Waiting and working 2.) Be on your guard 3.) Grow in grace and knowledge Questions: What does Peter encourage us to wait for? What does he encourage us to work toward? Is it healthy to only work or only wait? Why not? Why must we be on our guard? What does it mean to grow in grace?
