Sin_Friendly.

Apostle Peter leaves no doubts when he speaks of this company of misdirected teachers. “Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 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. 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: Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: 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.” (II Peter 3: 3-7) Peter names the two truths that are rejected by the new sin-friendly believers, the Rapture and the Judgment. It is easy to understand that a sin-friendly atmosphere has no room for a Rapture of the saintly or a Judgment of the left behind.
