Commentary

that ye . . . be found of him--"in His sight" [ALFORD], at His coming; plainly implying a personal coming. without spot--at the coming marriage feast of the Lamb, in contrast to Pe2 2:13, "Spots they are and blemishes while they feast," not having on the King's pure wedding garment. blameless-- (Co1 1:8; Phi 1:10; Th1 3:13; Th1 5:23). in peace--in all its aspects, towards God, your own consciences, and your fellow men, and as its consequence eternal blessedness: "the God of peace" will effect this for you.
