Where Is the Promise of His Coming?

No one doctrine of the Bible can be taken in isolation from all of the other doctrines of the Bible. In 2 Peter 3, Peter's emphasis is a reply to the scoffers of his own day who denied the second coming of Jesus. But he places his reply in the context of five foundational Bible doctrines: Revelation, Creation, Eschatology, Redemption, and Sanctification.
