TRANSCRIPT

1 Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ,

To those who through the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ have received a faith as precious as ours:

2 Peter 1:1-2

2 Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.

2 Peter 1:1-2

12 So I will always remind you of these things, even though you know them and

are firmly established in the truth you now have. 13 I think it is right to refresh your

memory as long as I live in the tent of this body, 14 because I know that I will soon put it aside, as our Lord Jesus Christ has

made clear to me. 15 And I will make every effort to see that after my departure you will always be able to remember these

things.

2 Peter 2:12-15

“Peter was crucified at Rome with his head downwards, as he himself had desired to suffer.”

Origen

Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad;

    let them say among the nations,

“The LORD reigns!”Isaiah 52:7

But if it is by the Spirit of God that I drive out

demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.Matthew 12:28

20 Once, on being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of

God would come, Jesus replied, “The coming of the

kingdom of God is not something that can be observed, 21 nor will

people say, ‘Here it is,’ or ‘There it is,’ because the kingdom of God is

in your midst.”

Luke 17:20-21

For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in

the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.Matthew 24:27
