| Monday 2 Peter 2:17 These people are as useless as dried-up springs of water or as clouds blown away by the wind–promising much and delivering nothing. They are doomed to blackest darkness. Tuesday 2 Peter 2:18 They brag about themselves with empty, foolish boasting. With lustful desire as their bait, they lure back into sin those who have just escaped from such wicked living. Wednesday 2 Peter 2:19 They promise freedom, but they themselves are slaves to sin and corruption. For you are a slave to whatever controls you. Thursday 2 Peter 2:20 And when people escape from the wicked ways of the world by learning about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and then get tangled up with sin and become its slave again, they are worse off than before. Friday 2 Peter 2:21 It would be better if they had never known the right way to live than to know it and then reject the holy commandments that were given to them. Zingers from Croft M.
