2 Peter 3:7
But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

Study Note
The declaration — 'but by the same word the heavens and earth that now exist are stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly' — draws an analogy between the primordial flood and the coming judgment by fire, connecting both to the creative and judging power of the divine word. The phrase 'stored up for fire' (tetheraurismenoi pyri) presents the present world not as permanently secure but as held in reserve — the current order is the penultimate reality before eschatological conflagration. The context addresses scoffers who argue from the uniformity of natural processes against the expectation of divine intervention (verse 4); the letter responds with the precedent of the flood as evidence that divine word can and does interrupt the observable order. The verse grounds eschatological expectation in the theology of creation: the same divine word that called the world into being can dissolve it.
