We pray that these comments on the witness to the truth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ by Peter and John will help fulfill Peter’s apostolic admonition to avoid “the error of lawless people,” but rather to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”
This Study Guide on 2 Peter & 1 John developed from a discipline of producing week-by-week notes on the Lifeway “Explore the Bible” curriculum. Following their purpose of going through the Bible once every seven years proved to prompt an edifying discipline of close contextual Bible study for me. This commentary is an expansion of those original Sunday Bible study notes through the years. I asked my sister, Sylvia Nettles Dickson, whose personal devotion to Scripture and practical insight have often encouraged me, to join this effort with her linguistic energy and love for growth under the power of truth. We pray for its usefulness by God’s providence and for his glory.
