New Testament Books

In his second letter, Peter challenged the church to pursue knowledge of God’s Word. If you know the truth, you’ll be able to spot errors. He urged them to simultaneously “be on guard” and “grow in grace.” Peter couldn’t stress enough how important it is for believers to grow in our understanding of God and His Word. Follow along as Dr. J. Vernon McGee helps us do just that.  

Thru the Bible—2 Peter

2 Peter is all about Jesus! This 4-day plan will walk you through the book of 2 Peter by reading just a chapter or two a day. Each day is accompanied by a short devotional and video that explains what’s happening and shows you how each part of the story points to Jesus and his Gospel.

Jesus in All of 2 Peter - a Video Devotional

Peter knows he is about to be sacrificed. So, before saying farewell, he writes his second letter to make sure we know everything we need to know. What does he say? And why is it so important? “Promises of a Precious Faith” is Part One of Pastor Mark Rae’s new series, KNOW THIS, based on the second letter of the Apostle Peter.

[Know This] Promises of a Precious Faith

Following his first letter, Apostle Peter must have received reports of false teachers and backsliders who indulged in sin and scoffed at Jesus’s second coming. He then writes this letter to strengthen believers in the knowledge of Jesus Christ, calling them to escape from worldly corruption and to grow in the qualities of faith, virtue, knowledge, self-control, perseverance, godliness, brotherly affection and love. 

Through the Bible: 2 Peter

Shortly after writing his first letter, Peter hears word of false teaching spreading amongst the churches in Asia Minor. The letter focuses on combating false teachers and encouraging believers to grow in spiritual maturity by studying the Scriptures. Second Peter reminds us to be diligent in confirming our calling by cultivating Christ-likeness in all aspects of our lives.

2nd Peter Explained | All You Need to Live Godly

Vance K. Jackson leads readers in this heart-transforming devotional. When you surrender to Christ, He gives you the power to surrender and submit to His Word. It is not by your own good works or deeds that you are saved. It is through Jesus Christ that you are set free and delivered from the bondages and strongholds of sin. Let Christ transform you as you read this powerful devotional.

Through Christ You Are Set Free

We may not literally walk on water these days, but as you follow along these seven days you may recognize some of Peter's challenges in your own life.

Let this devotional inspire you to trust, step out in faith, and refocus on Him this week.

Life brings trials, but God’s grace sustains us. Peter’s letters offer wisdom on faith, endurance, and living with hope. Each day, we’ll explore Scripture, reflect on its truth, and grow in God’s strength. No matter where you are in your journey, His grace is enough.

Are you someone who lives and works at a fast pace? Do you feel irritated when people around you seem to do everything slowly? In this Plan, I hope that we will find wisdom and encouragement as we study Peter’s journey from quick responder to holiness.

QUICK STEPS

This simple plan will take you through 1 & 2 Peter and would be great for individual or group study.

1 & 2 Peter

God’s people who are living under incredible pressure need “His divine power” because in it we find the source for “life and godliness”. This 6-day study in the letter called 2 Peter to a church experiencing persecution is for any Christian who needs to experience God’s power under the pressure of life.

2 Peter: Power Under Pressure

In this YouVersion, Colleen Rouse walks us through key pillars of resiliency!

Love God Greatly - 1 & 2 Peter

In this plan, Colleen Rouse walks us through key pillars of resiliency! When we understand how God wants us to act in the face of difficulty, we can more effectively understand and utilize resiliency whenever we experience an obstacle or decline. We each must come to recognize the power of bouncing back! Let’s get started.

The letters of the Apostle Peter are more relevant than ever. With the rise of secularization in a culture opposed to biblical values, Christians need to prepare for opposition. That’s precisely why Peter wrote these letters. By reading alongside his biography in the Gospels, we will understand not only life-coaching but also his back story that shaped the heart of this hearty Apostle. 

This Guide on the Book of 2 Peter deals with false teachers. You will learn to grow and become strong in your faith to detect and combat the spreading false teaching and fake news in our culture.

Prayers From 2 Peter

2 Peter

In just two verses—John 3:16 and 1 John 3:16—God reveals the depth of His love for humanity and the call for believers to live in response to Jesus' sacrifice. These passages, penned by the disciple Jesus loved, proclaim the very heart of the Gospel. Over the next five days, we will unpack these two verses to better understand God's boundless love and what it means to imitate Christ.

3:16

This one-year plan will help you read and understand the entire New Testament, Psalms, and Proverbs in a very simple way.

Daily Reading Plan With Christian Mael (April)

The communities Apostle John pastored were filled with internal dissensions, false teachings self-claimed to be from the Spirit, and fake Christians who had depraved lifestyles. John wrote these letters to call readers to focus on the truth, discerning between the true and false teachings and between Christian and un-Christian behavior. The church door is open to all, but having the discernment to single out the pseudo-Christians is especially important.

Through the Bible: 1 2 3 John

How can we know for certain that we are saved? What truth can we rest in when we doubt our salvation? This study goes through the letters of John, showing us what it looks like to be a follower of Jesus and how to know without a shadow of a doubt that we belong to Christ.

Beyond a Shadow of a Doubt: Finding Security & Certainty in Christ

He Laid Down His Life

1 John is one of three letters written by John the Beloved, the same author as the Gospel of John and Revelation. Written as a response to false teaching in the church, John reminds his readers that just as God is both love and light, true believers are to show love and light to the world.

1 John is the first of three short letters written by the disciple John. 1 John is thought to have been written to the churches around Ephesus in around 90AD. In this short letter, we start to see and grasp the magnitude of God’s perfect character, and how much his love has radically been shown to us through Jesus. OUR GOD IS ____ ?

Love restores. Love will soften the ground of your heart. Love will never leave you or forsake you. Love will set you free. God is Love. Let God lead your heart as you read this timely message.

Walk In Love

According to 2 John, you can’t have truth without love, and vice versa. John says our obedience to God should be motivated by love and informed by truth. The keyword of 3 John is “welcome.” Fellowship with God, sharing the gospel, and walking in truth and love produce a spirit of hospitality. Study alongside Dr. J. Vernon McGee as he leads the way through these brief yet impactful books. 

Thru the Bible—2 John & 3 John

Jesus’ death and resurrection, as well as the promise of His return, prove His unending love for each of us both in words and deeds. Jesus said that there is no greater love than someone giving his life for his friends, but He didn’t merely say it. He did it. 


[Truth & Love] in Word and Deed

When we think of the church, do we think of it as a community of truth and love? What is our part in that? How will we contribute to the community? Have we thought that maybe we need to be reminded of something we may be prone to forgo or forget? In this series on 2 John, Dr. Mark Rae gives us the answer to these questions and more.

[Truth & Love] the Practice

Decades after Jesus’s death and resurrection, the apostle John wrote three letters to believers experiencing trouble within their church. With the wisdom of age and the authority of experience, John writes to comfort and encourage the flock of God. Let’s turn to these special letters to experience that comfort and encouragement even today. 

John’s Letters: Living in the Light of God’s Love

What happens when someone who loves to be first takes control of a local church? 2nd & 3rd John may be the Bible’s two shortest books, but they’re part of a much bigger story—one that includes true disciples, traveling deceivers, dangerous hospitality, and the serious perils of arrogance in authority. Join Kris Langham for this powerful glimpse into first-century church struggles and what we can learn from them today.

2 & 3 John Explained | When Arrogance Finds a Pulpit

The worst attacks on our faith come in subtle ways. On the tip of the iceberg, we see arguments from apparently sincere followers of Jesus. But what we don’t see underneath is how their false doctrines can destroy faith. How can we identify these deceivers and their lies? What should we do about them? In this series on the second letter of John, Dr. Mark Rae gives us the answer.


[Truth & Love] the Protection

The New Testament books of 1, 2 and 3 John have a recurring theme: love. The author speaks repeatedly of Jesus’s command for believers to love one another. Christian believers should stand apart from the rest of the world, characterized by God’s love. This six-day devotional explores John’s words in his three epistles, offering tangible ways to show God’s love to fellow believers.

Known by Love: A Six-Day Devotional in 1, 2, and 3 John

This devotion (taken from Book of 2 John) will equip you with biblical truths, and guide you to practice it daily as you continue your walk of faith in Christ.


Book of 2 John

The Apostle John had one clear message in his letters: Love one another. In the letters of 1, 2, and 3 John, the beloved disciple encouraged followers of Christ to love God by following His commands, and to love and honor fellow believers. John’s message is incredibly relevant to us today, offering insight to us as we seek to live like Jesus lived and love like Jesus loved. 

Love God Greatly - Know Love: A Study on 1, 2, 3 John

John's second letter addresses the same false teachers as 1 John. He emphasizes the need for wisdom and discernment when interacting with false teachers. True Christian fellowship is must be founded on the truth of Christ and built in love towards one another.

Discernment: A Study in 2 John

Deeper into Scripture is a methodology of scripture reading that instructs, encourages and equips people to read God’s Word daily and deeply. To accomplish this we have created a unique four-fold method of bible reading that directs the individual to read a short passage of scripture four times. Each reading is done with a different question, instruction or objective to be considered. This repetitive reading and instruction takes us deeply into the Word of God and draws us closer to Him.
