Bible Quote Jun 29th 2 Peter 3:9

“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.” 2 Peter 3:9 NIV

===

Some say Peter could not have written his letter because they don’t believe in adult learning. After Peter’s education as a disciple of Jesus, Peter was privileged and had ample opportunity to learn advanced rhetoric. But the wording here is simple and pure. God is holy. God is exalted and above the sin of which people are immersed. In order to deal with sin, it is important not to deal in sin, but to look for God. The simplicity of the words is what informs those who claim Peter could not have written it. 

Another argument against the second epistle is that words are used, like 'Scripture' which weren't generally used until long after Peter's death. Also, Peter seems to have accurately predicted his own death. 

Peter was named by Christ as the rock of the Church This letter may not have been written by him, but was written in his name, possibly any time from 60AD to 160 AD. Peter would have been dead, but still remembered in Rome where this letter probably originated. Christians were being persecuted on the pretext of amoral behaviour.

Here, Peter writes of the delay to the Day of the Lord. A delay that is only perception.
