# 2 Peter 03 General Notes # #### Special concepts in this chapter #### ##### Fire ##### Fire is related to destruction and, because of this, it is associated with punishment. ##### Day of the Lord ##### The exact time of the coming day of the Lord will come as a surprise to the world. This is what the simile "like a thief in the night" means. Because of this, Christians are to be prepared for the coming of the Lord.
