Repentance in the Bible: 2 Peter 3:9


It's natural to wonder why God seems, from our human perspective, to be so slow to act on some of His promises. Here, we're assured that it's not a matter of God being slow, but God being patient--He wants everyone to have ample time to repent and turn to Him before it's too late.

2 Peter 3:9 (KJV)

 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

“If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.”
- 1 Corinthians 13:1-3
