I've always especially liked this verse:

"As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction."

- Peter 3:16 KJV

FWIW!

Indeed, many use scripture to sow the seeds of discord, throwing it like stones. I merely quote scripture in hopes of attaining a just peace within
our own nation. This civil war has gone on too long at at too great a cost.
The following quote is the preceeding context of the passage you cited.

2 Peter 3:13-14
Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
