For on this day the heavens will be destroyed by burning, and the elements will melt with intense heat!ġ3 But in accordance with His promise we expectantly await new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.ġ4 So, beloved, since you are looking forward to these things, be diligent and make every effort to be found by Him spotless and blameless, in peace.ġ5 And consider the patience of Yahuwah as salvation just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you according to the wisdom given to him. Let’s continue looking at 2 Peter 3 now we know who the judgment is for:ġ1 Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be in holy behavior and in godliness.ġ2 Look for and await the coming of the day of Elohim.
There will be those who follow man and the traditions thereof and those who instead follow Yahuwah and the commandments He wants us to walk in. The judgment here is for those who do not follow Yahuwah.
The destruction of the people here is based upon the judgment of Yahuwah.
#Thief in the night bible full
On the day of Yahuwah’s indignation and wrath.įor He shall make a full and complete end, Their blood will be poured out like dust, Īnd against the high corner towers (battlements).īecause they have sinned against Yahuwah Atonement is made and then judgment comes. So what is this day of Yahuwah? It is when the judgment is handed down. So who are these people that live in darkness that shall be taken by surprise like a thief in the night and who is the thief that we should be fearful?ġ0 But the day of Yahuwah will come like a thief, and then the heavens will vanish with a roar, and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and the works that are on it will be burned up. (A good article to cover which speaks about the Light and the darkness in His calendar can be found here). These people are not living in the darkness which is when the thief comes. Verse 4 tells us that the people of Yahuwah shall be ready and not be surprised the same way one would be when a thief comes to a house in the night. Many quote verse 2 alone, which by itself would seem to say that no one will know the time he appears, but ignore what is said in verse 4. And they shall not escape.Ĥ But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief.ĥ You are all sons of light and sons of the day. The scripture they are referring to is this one.ġ But concerning the times and the appointed times (seasons), brethren, you have no need that I should write to you.Ģ For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of Yahuwah will come as a thief in the night.ģ For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. Many times I have heard people say that we cannot know exactly when He shall come as the scripture says He shall come “Like a thief in the night”.
