The fearful circumstances which are to come upon us at the end of all things, the great Day of the lord, such as they had been described a few verses before: that as the old world in the time of Noah, being overflowed with water, perished, so the Heavens and the earth which are now, are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men and that the Day of the lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the Heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also, and the works that are therein, shall be burned up finally, that to us there will be, according to our lord's promise, new Heavens and a new Earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. These, says the Apostle, are the things which we look for we know very well that matters have not always gone on as they do, nor will hereafter always continue to do so; we know that all things, while we live, are perpetually changing round us, or seeming to change; and that we must each of us, before long, undergo that greatest change, Death.
