Bookends

Next Sunday morning I am going to start a new series on the book of 2 Peter. One of the key words in the book is knowledge. The book begins, "Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord." 2 Peter 1:2 and ends, "But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen." 2 Peter 3:18
The knowledge that Peter is referring to here is not just knowing about something but to have a firm conviction based upon truth. Peter is concerned that his readers know the truth of God's Word in their lives.
