Notwithstanding, I think it mete, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;

forasmuch as I am sure how that the time is at hand that I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath showed me.

Even then, verily, when he received of God the father honour and glory, and when there came such a voice to him from that excellent glory. "This is my dear beloved son, in whom I have delight" -

These are wells without water, and clouds carried about of a tempest, to whom the mist of darkness is reserved forever.

but grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord, and saviour Jesus Christ. To whom be glory both now and forever. Amen. {Here ends the Second General Epistle of Peter}
