Title: Strong in 2 Peter

Contents

Lesson 57 2 Peter (2 Peter 3:17-18)

 

I. Author, Recipient and Date of Record

The record date is A.D. It is around 66-67. It is after the writing of 1 Peter (64 A.D.) and before the martyrdom (68 A.D.). The purpose of encouraging believers who are persecuted at the end of Nero's reign supports this.

The recording location is Rome. Just before his martyrdom, Peter cared for the churches in Rome.

 

II. Theme: The theme of 2 Peter is “growth in Christ.” He warned against heresies that emerged as a new problem with the persecution of Rome, and urged them to stand firm in the knowledge of Christ and grow.

2 Peter describes Jesus Christ as our wisdom and strength.

 

. Overview (purpose of record and characteristics)

The purpose of the writing of 2 Peter is

First, to guard against false teachers such as Gnostics

Second, in order to reject immoral hedonism

Third, it is to give them confidence in the Second Coming.

The characteristic of this book is first, a warning against false teachers. While 1 Peter mentions the persecution of Rome as an external persecutor, this book is wary of false teachers who are the internal persecutors of the church. Second, it emphasizes spiritual knowledge. He refuted ‘Gnosticism’, which was the most influential heresy, and recommended that we have correct spiritual knowledge. Third, it is similar to Jude. Much of the two books agree on the boundary regarding false prophets.

 

IV. content study

 

Peter's first epistle is a letter of consolation, and the second epistle is a letter of warning. In 1 Peter, we encourage Christians who were being persecuted from the outside, and in 2 Peter, we try to protect the saints by warning of the devil's tricks that are more terrifying than the persecution in Rome, that is, the danger of heresy spreading within the church. For this reason, Peter explains basic Christian doctrines such as 'salvation theory (1:1-4)' and 'eschatology (3:1-13)' in a confident tone throughout this book, and stands firm in this knowledge of salvation ( 1:10, 3:14) It is recommended to achieve the growth of faith (1:5-7)

Peter exclaims, “Remember” (1:12, 13, 3:1). And it warns, “Do not forget” (1:9, 3:8). It is a warning to remember that the Word of God is the standard and not to forget the hope of the Second Coming Lord because of false teaching.

Peter emphasizes knowledge, which is the knowledge of God, the knowledge of the 'right way' (2:15), and the knowledge of the 'way of righteousness' (2:21), which is what honors God and prevents heresy. They say it can be stopped.

It also encourages the saints to lead a holy and godly life (2 Peter 3:11). Christians need more moral courage than physical courage. It is the Christian's duty to do the right thing without hesitation under any circumstances or circumstances.

Peter

In the Gospels, we are reminded of Peter as an impatient, hot-blooded, restless, sometimes optimistic, condescending and ambitious in worldly power, as well as a cowardly furry and a disciple who denied Jesus captured three times. do.

But in this book, we find a sanctified figure of patience, calm, trustworthiness, love, and courage. In the Gospels, we see Peter transformed by the Lord, but in this book we see the transformation of Peter because of God's infinite grace. This is the amazing work of God that transforms a human being in any form. Peter, who met the resurrected Jesus in Galilee, brought about a complete change not only in his life, but also in his outlook on life and even his soul.

And just before his ascension to heaven, he was a preacher of the Pentecostal meeting, as Jesus had said, “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which you have heard from me.” Peter, who was no longer crude and capricious, had become a courageous and refined general of Jesus. Afterwards, he was executed while preaching the gospel in Rome under Nero's persecution. According to a legend, when he was crucified, he said, “Our Lord was crucified, how can I be crucified in the same way? Cruise me upside down.” He died on the cross upside down.
