10But 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.Select 2 Peter 3:10

11Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,Select 2 Peter 3:11
