Second Coming of Jesus Christ: Bible expert explains prophecy of 'God's wrath' on Earth
READ MORE Professor Meyer explained: "Very few will believe the message that there is a God and he is returning in judgment, just as no one believed the preaching of Noah until it was too late. "Along those lines, Peter encourages Christians not to succumb to the conventional wisdom of the world and give up on the hope that Christ will return, possibly in your lifetime." Peter also describes a divine intervention by God that will manifest on a global scale after the Second Coming. This intervention will be on the scale of Noah's flood, bringing terrible devastation to the world.
