Today's Scripture
Have you ever sat in church or in class thinking you have heard this all before, over and over, blah, blah, blah. Peter is reminding even those who are firmly established or mature in their walk with the Lord, still need a refresher. He even says that he will make every effort that they remember. When I hear a sermon topic that I am familiar with, instead of moaning about hearing the same old, same old, I ask God to teach me something new or show me what I have missed in the past because of my attitude.
Study Questions:
1. 2 Peter 1:5 says to make every effort to add to your faith, knowledge…
How will you add to your faith, to your knowledge? How will you refresh your memory?
2. Peter says he will remind us of “these things”. Look back starting at verse 5 through 11. What things do we need to be reminded of?
3. Even though you know these things, why do we drift from them?
4. Who is in your life that will always be able to remind you of these things? Do you rely on the Holy Spirit to speak these truths to you? Do you have friends that will not let things slide? Will you be one of those friends that will speak truth?
