Hi Shimmer,2Peter 3:10 But “the day of the Lord” will come as a thief in the night;
in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise,
and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth
also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.OK; the word that Elements was translated from: should have been translated to English as rudiments; which is what is getting burned-up!
Elements: Greek #4747 στοιχεῖον (stoicheion) stoy-khi'-on:
(Strong's) the elements of knowledge , principally: Rudiments.
What gets 'burned up' is the 'rudiments'! (2Peter 3:10)Rudiments: an arrangement unable to perform it's normal function,
(Webster) a fundamental skill, something uniformed. (Gen.2:17)Here, the same translated word tells “US” what it is that is getting burned-up.
Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy
and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
Col.2:20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world,
why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances(?),God bless

http://www.holycitybiblecode.orgNovember 11, 2011 at 6:55 am#262148shimmerParticipantEd, I agree with you completly on the OTHER issue with the world, I remember how I used to debate you on that (so as I said, thanks)…..
um, but, not this. Only some will remain Ed.

Mal 4:2 But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.Mal 4:3 And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do [this], saith the LORD of hosts.
Mal 4:4 Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, [with] the statutes and judgments.

Thank you for asking Ed, we are feeling somewhat better, but there are still moments when I think of Debbie and I miss Her so much…..
Two deaths in one week is hard to take…. Our Grandson and His Wife took of to Washington DC, and are trying to cope with their loss of their Daughter…Peace and Love IreneNovember 19, 2011 at 5:54 pm#262707terrariccaParticipantQuote (mikeboll64 @ Nov. 11 2011,20:08) Quote (mikeangel @ Nov. 10 2011,05:18) Hey Mike, It was in response to Ed's post where he quoted 2 Peter 3:10. Peace
This is NETBible's version of it:2 Peter 3:10 NET ©
But the day of the Lord will come like a thief; when it comes, the heavens will disappear with a horrific noise, and the celestial bodies will melt away in a blaze, and the earth and every deed done on it will be laid bare.That makes it seem even more cut and dry to me.
Markthis is even better;
2Pe 3:11 Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives
2Pe 3:12 as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming. That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat.
2Pe 3:13 But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousness.
2Pe 3:14 So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him.Pierre
