2 Peter 3Peter wrote no such thing. The timeframe of the burning of the old, and the coming of the new is post-judgmentday not anywhere near the second coming.
[3] Knowing this first, that there shall come in the LAST days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
[4] And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
[5] For this they WILLINGLY are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
[6] Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
[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 [destruction] of ungodly men.
