Peter writes 2 Peter 1:1 – 11 to guide believers into assurance of their salvation. He does so as the first point in teaching believers how to discern error in false teachers. The test involves an objective and subjective test. The objective test has two aspects. The first aspect of the objective test is God's power found in 2 Peter 1:3. Today we will look at the second aspect of this test, God's promises. These two aspects will conclude the objective test portion of the test. The subjective portion of the test he will discuss in verses 5 - 7. However, at hand Peter is explaining what we objectively place our faith in, God's power and promises. Listen as Charlie Nason explains God's promises from 2 Peter 1:4.
