Never tire of being Reminded! P2
Peter knew his time was short, but instead of panicking or fading quietly into the background, he focused on reminding others of truth. Not new ideas, not novel insights—but the foundational truths of the gospel that they already knew. Why? Because sometimes the greatest spiritual danger isn’t forgetting facts—it’s forgetting to live by them. Sometimes, the most loving thing we can do for each other is remind one another of who Jesus is and what He’s done—especially when life gets noisy or overwhelming. Peter’s legacy wasn’t about leaving new ideas, but making sure believers would never lose sight of the truth after he was gone.
Next Level Love P2
Most people would agree that it is not very difficult to reciprocate love to someone who loves and treats you well. We’ll even go to extreme lengths to demonstrate affection to those we care for, no matter the cost. But what about people who dislike, hurt, persecute or even, hate you? In our flesh, it seems unreasonable to expect someone to return love for hate, and kindness for cruelty, but that is exactly what Jesus calls us to do! Christ consistently showed love and compassion towards his enemies, even washing Judas’ feet while knowing that Judas would betray him the following day. Jesus loved us and died for us when we were still his enemies and did not know him. He demonstrates true, unconditional love as an example to emulate. We are not to love as the world loves, but to love exceptionally, as Jesus did. The bar has been raised!

Supernatural Power must lead to Supernatural Fruit P2
After reminding believers that God has already provided everything needed for a life of godliness, Peter challenges them to take intentional steps to build on their faith. He outlines a series of spiritual traits to pursue—each one building on the next—and makes it clear these aren’t optional. They’re the visible evidence of a life that’s truly growing in Christ. When these qualities are increasing in your life, you’ll be both effective and fruitful in your relationship with Jesus. But without them, Peter warns, you risk becoming spiritually nearsighted—forgetting the very grace that saved you. That’s why he urges every believer to make every effort to confirm their calling and election—not to earn salvation, but to live in a way that reflects it, with the confident hope of a rich and eternal welcome into the kingdom of Christ.
