Why Does Time Continue?

2 Peter 3:9 “The word is not slack slow and delayed concerning his promise supported by law as some men count a slow delay; But in long suffering delaying judgment and punishment towards us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance having a change of mind from evil to good.” Comment: The word time in the Greek means to honor! Time is the only currency we have to honor God! So are we wasting our time? What are we chasing? Fortune? Fame? Pleasures? Notice God’s promise is backed by law! God’s laws are legally binding! We are guilty he is innocent! He took our guilt and sin upon himself and took our judgment and death upon himself! God extends time to sweep in the lost! Time buys you a decision you will have to make! We will all run out of time one day! No longer able to honor God here on earth. What we have done with Christ while on earth will determine what Christ does with us in eternity! Accept him or reject him! We cannot be good unless God makes us good! His transforming power overcomes the flesh! How long can God delay my judgment? Long enough for me to repent of my sin! The thieves on the Cross had just a few hours! One repented the other not! How long do you have before sickness or death removes your opportunity? We cannot rewind or fast forward life! We live one day at a time! However God’s Mercy endures forever! We have to knock on the door! Jesus said if you knock I will open! The bankruptcy of the soul is the attitude I do not need God! Wisdom recognizes I need the Savior! Take a ‘time out’ in your life and go to Jesus! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
