is so important that we see "time" from God's perspective. Those
in the apostles' day made serious errors in judgment and
interpretation, because they failed to grasp His concept of time.
Imagine, a day with Him is as 1000 years, and 1000 years as a day! To
understand this is to put an entirely new concept in our thinking.
Impatience then flies out the window.</span></span></font></p>

<font style="font-size: 11pt;" size="2">Then too, Peter acknowledges
that his friend Paul is not the easiest teacher to understand. So
many facile students feel they understand him, and miss his point
completely. Peter claims that many destroy themselves by failing to
understand the apostle Paul. You will find that by studying Paul in
the context of Ivan Panin's Numeric Outlined Interlinear Greek New
Testament - there is less likelihood of making shipwreck over the
more difficult concepts of Paul. </font>

<font style="font-size: 11pt;" size="2">Chapter 3 of 2 Peter continues
to enlarge upon chapter 2. Delay in God's timing is often because of
His mercy and grace - seeking to give extra time for wise decisions.
But finally, the day of grace ends, just as in the days of Noah. That
is soon to take place for our generation also.</font></p>

<font style="font-size: 11pt;" size="2">From this epistle of Peter, we
can see how unwise it is to take God's grace for granted. God's
desire is that each one of us understands that salvation through
conversion is but the open door. It is then our privilege and
responsibility to choose the way of Virtue - and to let Christ
through the Holy Spirit live out the fullness of His holy life
through us.                         Jim Watt</font></p>
