It’s Been 2000 Years?! “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised?”

‘…in the last days scoffers will come…’  ‘They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised?”’

‘But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.’

‘The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise’

‘Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.’

‘Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation’

2 Peter 3:3-15

  1. Interestingly we have not yet reached the 2000th anniversary of Jesus’ death on the cross followed by his resurrection. Scholars are in pretty close agreement that Jesus was born about 5 BC and that when he died he was between 30 and 36. If we use these dates then the 2000th anniversary of Jesus’ death and resurrection will occur between 2025 and 2031.
