Title: The Transition May Be Bumpy
Topic: Second Coming
Summary: The vision of a Second Coming and heaven coming down to earth is very beautiful, but we are warned in Scripture that the transition from here to there will be spiritually turbulent, to say the least. Repentance is the best policy.

2 Peter 3:9-13
9
The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fervent heat, and the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.
11
Therefore since all these things will be destroyed like this, what kind of people ought you to be in holy living and godliness,
12
looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the day of God, which will cause the burning heavens to be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?
13
But, according to his promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.
