These men, however, like animals without reason, intended by nature to be caught and killed--these men, I say, malign those of whom they know nothing, and will assuredly perish through their own corruption,

These men are like springs without water, or mists driven before a gale; and for them the blackest darkness has been reserved.

The Day of the Lord will come like a thief; and on that day the heavens will pass away with a crash, the elements will be burnt up and dissolved, and the earth and all that is in it will be disclosed.

but we look for 'new heavens and a new earth,' where righteousness shall have its home, in fulfillment of the promise of God.
