5 to 13. Answer: Once the world was destroyed by water, now it will be by fire. With the Lord a thousand years are but as one day. Though long—suffering, he is not slack in his promise .. The day will come as a thief in the night. Then comes a description of the burning of the world. We look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
3
14 to 16. Wherefore, be diligent, that ye may be found blameless, and account the long—suffering of the Lord salvation ‘even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given unto him, hath written unto you, as also in all epistles: in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as also the other scriptures to their own destruction.

3
8. 9. 10. If we say we have no sins, we lie: if we confess them, he forgives us.

2
3 to 6. They who say I know God, and keep not his commandments are liars.

1
1 to 10. Drivelling identicalism about sinning. ‘Little children, let no man deceive you. He that doeth righteousness is righteous…’ He ‘that committeth sin is of the devil.’ ‘Whosoever is born of God, doth not committ sin.’

Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. 13. Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. 14. For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. 15. What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace?God forbid. 16. Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? 17. But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from ye heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. 18. Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. 19. I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. 20. For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. 21. What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death. 22. But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. 23. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
