2 Peter
2 Peter 1:13–15
13I think it is right to refresh your memory as long as I live in the tent of my body ,b 14because I know that this tent will soon be laid aside, as our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me. 15And I will make every effort to ensure that after my departure, you will be able to recall these things at all times.
