What document do you reference with (II Pt 3:13) in the article? I am curious and would like to see if I can find it in its entirity via the Net. Thanks!
That is 2 Peter 3:13
Here's a chunk of that chapter:
9: The Lord is not slow about his promise as some count slowness, but is forbearing toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.
10: But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a loud noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fire, and the earth and the works that are upon it will be burned up.
11: Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of persons ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness,
12: waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be kindled and dissolved, and the elements will melt with fire!
13: But according to his promise we wait for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.
14: Therefore, beloved, since you wait for these, be zealous to be found by him without spot or blemish, and at peace.
