11. For so an entrance shall be provided unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
12. Therefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though you know them, and are established in the present truth.
13. Yea, I think it right, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;
14. Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ has showed me.
15. Moreover I will endeavor that you may be able after my departure to have these things always in remembrance.
16. For we have not followed cunningly devised myths, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17. For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory,
18. And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
19. We have also a more sure word of prophecy; to which you do well that you take heed, as unto a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
20. Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of one's own interpretation.
21. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.
