Reading from 2 Peter 3:1-18 (NLT) ~The Day of the Lord is Coming, Peter’s Final Words~ Scripture reading followed by discussion. Stimulating wholesome thinking. The Lord’s Patience. Changing your perspective back from that of a corrupted human back to the perspective of a child of God. Scoffers and mockers are that way by choice. God is patient, giving us time to turn to our good Father, and grow.
