2Peter
1:1 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them
that have obtained
like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our
Saviour Jesus Christ.
2Peter
1:2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the
knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
2Peter
1:3 According as his divine power has given unto us all things that
pertain unto life and godliness.(how?),
through the knowledge of him that has called us to glory and virtue;.(the
Infinite One
made
you righteous. You didn't have to do anything; now God wants you
to awaken to that fact)
2Peter
1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding
great and precious promises;
that by these.(this
is how you become one with the Infinite Intelligence) you
might be.('might
be' not in original; it means 'you are').partakers
of the divine nature.(and
the divine nature is what connects with your
soul, and keeps you connected),
having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.(lust
here means, we inordinately
focus upon that which is subject to perishing – the physical; lust is selfishness
that is on the pathway away from the ways that truly do help both us and
others:.Jeremiah
21:8 "...I set before you the way of life, and the way of death.").
2Peter
1:5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue
and to virtue knowledge.
2Peter
1:6 And to knowledge temperance.(self
control – making yourself do those things you just do not feel like doing,
but understanding they should be done; self control takes discipline).and
to temperance patience and
to patience godliness;.(Colossians
3:1-3)
2Peter
1:7 And to godliness brotherly kindness and to brotherly kindness
charity.
2Peter
1:8 For if these things be in you and abound, they make you that you
shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus
Christ.
2Peter
1:9 But he that lacks these things is blind and cannot see afar off,
and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
2Peter
1:10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence
to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you
shall never fall.(fall
back into the
trap of the ego).
2Peter
1:11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into
the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
2Peter
1:13 Yea, I think it meet.(fitting),
as long as I am in this tabernacle.(he's
speaking of his 'temporary dwelling',
his body), to stir you up by putting you in remembrance.
2Peter
1:14 Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle.(a
tabernacle is a dwelling place; we are spirits
that dwell in our bodies), even as our Lord Jesus Christ
hath shewed me.
2Peter
1:16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made
known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were
eyewitnesses of his majesty.
2Peter
1:17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there
came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved
Son, in whom I am well pleased.
2Peter
1:18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with
him in the holy mount.
2Peter
1:19 We have also a more sure word.(Hebrews
2:3).of prophecy; whereunto
you do well that you take heed, as unto a light that shines in a dark place,
until the day dawn and the day star.(Revelation
2:28; 22:16).arise
in your hearts..(day
star is Christ consciousness; understand what
Christ is)
2Peter
1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any
private interpretation.
2Peter
1:21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man; but
holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost..(if
you are holy, and you are, then the same applies
to you)
