[463.62 --> 464.10] this way,
[464.16 --> 465.32] in order for us
[465.32 --> 466.18] to want
[466.18 --> 467.46] to discipline
[467.46 --> 468.52] ourselves
[468.52 --> 470.42] to read the Bible
[470.42 --> 471.26] faithfully,
[471.46 --> 472.70] we need to see
[472.70 --> 473.70] how important
[473.70 --> 474.48] a book
[474.48 --> 475.42] it is.
[479.10 --> 480.44] We won't bother
[480.44 --> 482.20] with the Bible
[482.20 --> 484.16] if we don't realize
[484.16 --> 486.34] what kind of a book
[486.34 --> 486.88] it is
[486.88 --> 488.32] and why God
[488.32 --> 489.28] had it written.
[490.56 --> 492.08] Just like we won't bother
[492.08 --> 492.90] with Christ
[492.90 --> 493.90] if we don't know
[493.90 --> 494.52] who He is
[494.52 --> 495.78] or why He came.
[496.96 --> 498.04] So Peter speaks
[498.04 --> 498.88] to the importance
[498.88 --> 499.56] of Scripture
[499.56 --> 500.48] in our lives
[500.48 --> 501.72] in our passage,
[501.86 --> 502.82] 2 Peter 1,
[503.06 --> 504.34] 12 to 21.
[505.70 --> 507.00] After having spoken
[507.00 --> 507.70] about vision
[507.70 --> 508.38] and intent,
[508.50 --> 509.04] he goes on
[509.04 --> 510.02] to say in verse 12,
[510.02 --> 511.86] so I will always
[511.86 --> 512.84] remind you
[512.84 --> 514.58] of these things
[514.58 --> 515.44] even though
[515.44 --> 516.64] you know them
[516.64 --> 517.88] and are firmly
[517.88 --> 518.48] established
[518.48 --> 519.36] in the truth
[519.36 --> 520.64] you now have.
[521.36 --> 522.74] I think it's right
[522.74 --> 523.50] to refresh
[523.50 --> 524.18] your memory
[524.18 --> 525.48] as long as I live
[525.48 --> 526.26] in the tent
[526.26 --> 527.58] of this body
[527.58 --> 529.88] because I know
[529.88 --> 531.42] that I will soon
[531.42 --> 533.28] put it aside
[533.28 --> 535.24] as our Lord Jesus
[535.24 --> 536.78] has made clear
[536.78 --> 537.22] to me.
[537.22 --> 538.50] people often know
[538.50 --> 540.34] when they're
[540.34 --> 542.02] about to go.
[543.02 --> 544.56] And I will make
[544.56 --> 545.82] every effort
[545.82 --> 546.94] to see
[546.94 --> 547.84] that after
[547.84 --> 548.96] my departure
[548.96 --> 550.76] you will always
[550.76 --> 551.40] be able
[551.40 --> 552.22] to remember
[552.22 --> 553.36] these things.
[553.74 --> 554.32] Why?
[558.32 --> 559.72] Because we didn't
[559.72 --> 561.00] follow cleverly
[561.00 --> 562.22] devised stories
[562.22 --> 563.70] when we told
[563.70 --> 564.24] you about
[564.24 --> 565.56] and it really
[565.56 --> 566.68] means the second
[566.68 --> 567.22] coming
[567.22 --> 568.32] of our Lord
[568.32 --> 569.34] Jesus Christ
[569.34 --> 570.14] in power.
[571.72 --> 572.38] But therefore
[572.38 --> 574.44] we were eyewitnesses
[574.44 --> 575.90] of his majesty.
[577.18 --> 578.10] He received
[578.10 --> 579.52] honor and glory
[579.52 --> 580.86] from God the Father
[580.86 --> 581.62] when the voice
[581.62 --> 582.36] came to him
[582.36 --> 583.30] from the majestic
[583.30 --> 583.90] glory.
[584.20 --> 584.76] This is when he
[584.76 --> 585.62] was on the mountain
[585.62 --> 586.10] saying,
[586.70 --> 587.68] this is my son
[587.68 --> 588.58] whom I love.
[589.38 --> 589.90] With him
[589.90 --> 590.98] I'm well pleased.
[590.98 --> 592.16] we ourselves
[592.16 --> 593.22] heard this voice
[593.22 --> 594.40] that came from heaven
