2 Peter 3:3
” *Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts* ,”
The scoffers.
They scoff at spiritual things.
They don’t want to live for God.
They’re interested in their own pleasure, their materialism, in feeding their own lusts.
We’ve got them today—the scoffers.
They scoff at the Bible.
They scoff at the Second Coming of Christ.
They scoff at the atonement of Christ. They scoff at the idea of the resurrection of Christ.
” *For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water* :”(2Pet 3:5)
They don’t have to be ignorant.
But they are willingly ignorant, just like Eve and Adam.
Adam deliberately sinned with his eyes open, and so it is with you.
There came a time when you deliberately told a lie.
These people are willingly ignorant.
They want to be spiritually blind.
They know better, but they are hardened in their sins by their own will.
” *The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is* *longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance* .”(2Pet 3:9)
