1 Peter 5; 2 Peter 1-

Peter addresses the end times, describing events and challenges to come. He cites God’s omnipotence over all, yet challenges believers to keep their lives under control, always pressing toward a spotless and blameless existence.

Spots need to be removed through confession and repentance. Blame must be erased through a lifestyle of vigilant integrity.

Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. [Heb. 12:2]
