Bad news is all around us. Every day brings a new concern as threats are unveiled around the world. So how should Christians respond? Peter exhorts us to not fear, but to rather look, labor and live for Christ's coming. The worse the world gets, the closer we are to going home!
In a final installment of 2 Peter, we find even more warnings against false teachers. Peter calls out these pseudo-preachers as dry wells, dangerous clouds, and dark mists. Pastor Brad Wells echoes his instruction for navigating daily dangers in the present day.
After calling out false teachers, Peter warns their followers about where they will end up if they continue on this path. God will provide a way of escape, but they must identify and deny three components of corruption: a proud will, an evil mouth, and a greedy heart.

The difference between selective, subjective religion and objective faith is submission to God's Word. Pastor Brad Wells clearly shows that the Bible– the antidote to our own flawed perceptions– outlives, overshadows, and outshines human efforts.
