The Longsuffering of Our Lord is Salvation

2 Peter 3:15-18

About this sermon

Peter reads God's patience as an opportunity rather than a postponement, and then points his readers to Paul's letters — some things in them hard to understand, and twisted by the unstable to their own destruction. The lesson works through that warning and the charge that closes the epistle: beware of falling from your own steadfastness, and grow in grace and in the knowledge of Christ.
