2Peter:1:12-21
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Wherefore I will be careful to put you always in mind of these things ,
although knowing [
them ]
and established in the present truth .
*
But I account it right ,
as long as I am in this tabernacle ,
to stir you up by putting [
you ]
in remembrance ,
*
knowing that the putting off of my tabernacle is speedily [
to take place ],
as also our Lord Jesus Christ has manifested to me ;
*
but I will use diligence ,
that after my departure ye should have also ,
at any time , [
in your power ]
to call to mind these things .
*
For we have not made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ ,
following cleverly imagined fables ,
but having been eyewitnesses of his majesty .
*
For he received from God [
the ]
Father honour and glory ,
such a voice being uttered to him by the excellent glory :
This is my beloved Son ,
in whom I have found my delight ;
*
and this voice we heard uttered from heaven ,
being with him on the holy mountain .
*
And we have the prophetic word [
made ]
surer ,
to which ye do well taking heed (
as to a lamp shining in an obscure place )
until [
the ]
day dawn and [
the ]
morning star arise in your hearts ;
*
knowing this first ,
that [
the scope of ]
no prophecy of scripture is had from its own particular interpretation ,
*
for prophecy was not ever uttered by [
the ]
will of man ,
but holy men of God spake under the power of [
the ]
Holy Spirit .
