2 Peter 3:8-9

"But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like one day. The Lord is not slow about his promise, as some think of slowness, but is patient with you, not wanting any to perish, but all to come to repentance" (2 Peter 3:8-9).

Comment:

The author is warning against the false belief that the world will continue without end. Time is a human concept, meaningless in terms of the Divine except that it is a manifestation of God's patience and mercy.
