Jesus teaches the importance of being spiritually prepared for His second coming. He compares it to the days of Noah and Lot, when people were caught off guard by sudden judgment because they were absorbed in their daily lives.
“And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked.” (2 Peter 2:7). In this passage, Peter highlights the tension between living righteously in a sinful world and the dangers of falling into temptation. Just as God spared Lot from the wickedness of Sodom, He delivers His people from the corrupt influences around them. Yet, the warning is clear: Christians must remain vigilant, living holy lives amidst a world full of sin and temptation.
