2 PETER 3:14 — KING JAMES VERSION 0
“Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.”
Therefore, beloved, since you are waiting for these, be diligent to be found by him without spot or blemish, and at peace — the diligence (spoudazō) of readiness parallels Matthew 24-25 parable exhortations. To be found spotless (aspiloi) and blameless (amōmoi) recalls Ephesians 5:27 and suggests personal sanctification as eschatological preparation. Peace (eirēnē) represents the condition of those aligned with Christ.
