2 Peter 311,12 Since everything will be
destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought
you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives
as you look forward to the day of God and speed
its coming. That day will bring about the
destruction of the heavens by fire, and the
elements will melt in the heat.
