Do You Know the Whole Truth?

“But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.”

2 PETER 3:8-9

August 19, 2023

Ponder This

The Lord has kept the door of mercy open for you. God is a God of mercy. And Peter answers the apostates with three things. He says, “There’s a memorable promise.” He says, “There’s God’s mighty power.” But there is also God’s merciful patience, “The Lord is . . . not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9). God is waiting for you to be saved. You say, “If God is so full of mercy, I don’t have to worry.” But in verse 10 Peter says the Day of the Lord will come. The wrath of God and the mercy of God are both attributes of God. If you see God as all wrath and no mercy, that’s only part of the truth. If you see God as all mercy and no wrath, that’s only part of the truth. When you make part of the truth all the truth, that becomes an untruth. God is not willing that any should perish, but the Day of the Lord will come.
