What Does God Do With Our Sin? | 2 Peter 2:3-10
2 Peter 2:3-10
Opening story about 2 Peter
3:God has dim view of False Teachers-
Mathew 7:15:Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.
Galatians 1:8-9 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. 9 As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.
4: I don’t know but that won’t stop me.
Here and Jude references the Book of Enoch
I believe that everything that God wants us to know is in the Bible.
God is just which means he must punish sin. Even the angels are not speared His judgment.
5: Genesis 6:5-6: The Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6 And the Lord regretted that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him to his heart.
Even the most depraved people touch God’s heart. Noah didn’t stop warning and teaching about God’s righteousness.
More than that Jesus died for his enemies Romans 5:10: For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son
God’s commands us to witness and leave the results to him.
6-8: Agan we see God’s righteous judgement carried out on the ungodly and his rescuing of the righteous.
God calls Lot righteous, who am I to disagree. Praise God what He calls righteous is righteous.
9: God’s justice will be done.
How does he rescue us from his Justice? By taking on the punishment for our sins Himself.
Car example
God rescues and redeems:
Peter saw this in 3 ways:
Heard stories about it- The prodigal son Luke 15
Saw it happen: The women at the well. John 4
Lived it- Denal and calling.
