Text: 2 Peter 3:8-10
Theme: For a Confident Faith, You Must Understand God's Relationship to Time

One: God has a different Perspective of time.

• Verse 8 is not a literal Equation.
• God does not Experience time as we do.

Two: God has a merciful Purpose for time.

• What v.9 can NOT mean: a god who is disappointed or Unsuccessful
• What is helpful to know: God's _ can be expressed in various ways. God's compassion for All does not contradict God's electing of Some.
• What is the contrast in our text? Patient toward Us.

Three: God will keep His Promise in time.

• The imminence of His coming should produce Urgency in evangelism.
• The justice of His coming should produce Comfort in opposition.
