For those who are on the wrong side of it, there will be no escape, because the wrath of God is not haphazard or directionless. It is not, karma, or the rebalancing of the universe by ...
To what end is it for you? the day of the Lord is darkness; Why would ye have the day of the Lord? It is darkness. Why do ye, such as ye are, want this day to come? Ye know not what ye ask. It will be the very contrary to your expectations; it will be darkness, and not light, tribulation and miser y, not joy and triumph for you (comp. Micah 7:8).

This book was the second letter written by the apostle Peter, also known as Cephas, or “the rock,” and one of those in Jesus’s innermost circle. It is thought to have been written not long before his execution, and the intended audience was believers scattered throughout Asia Minor.
