This is a passage from the Bible - it's well worth reading this!
In the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own desires. They will say, "What happened to the promise that Jesus is coming again? From before the times of our ancestors, everything has remained the same since the world was first created."
They deliberately forget that God made the Heavens by the word of His command, and He brought the earth out from the water and surrounded it with water. Then He used the water to destroy the ancient world with a mighty flood. And by the same word, the present Heavens and earth have been stored up for fire. They are being kept for the day of judgment, when ungodly people will be destroyed.
A day is like a 1,000 years to the Lord, and a 1,000 years is like a day. The Lord isn't really being slow concerning His promise, as some people think. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants ever everyone to repent.
