2 Peter 1 16-2 Peter 1 21
For we did not follow cleverly contrived myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; instead, we were eyewitnesses of His majesty.For when He received honor and glory from God the Father, a voice came to Him from the Majestic Glory: This is My beloved Son. I take delight in Him!And we heard this voice when it came from heaven while we were with Him on the holy mountain.So we have the prophetic word strongly confirmed. You will do well to pay attention to it, as to a lamp shining in a dismal place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.First of all, you should know this: No prophecy of Scripture comes from one’s own interpretation,because no prophecy ever came by the will of man; instead, men spoke from God as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.

For our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power, in the Holy Spirit, and with much assurance. You know what kind of men we were among you for your benefit,and you became imitators of us and of the Lord when, in spite of severe persecution, you welcomed the message with joy from the Holy Spirit.As a result, you became an example to all the believers in Macedonia and Achaia.For the Lord’s message rang out from you, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but in every place that your faith in God has gone out. Therefore, we don’t need to say anything,for they themselves report what kind of reception we had from you: how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true Godand to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead— Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.
