Many people look at God as some rather barbaric, being interested only in the pain that He can inflict on His creation. Such could not be further from the truth. God’s love is manifested in the fact that He gave His only begotten Son so that mankind could have the opportunity for salvation. In return, those who take the Lord’s gracious offer dedicate their lives to His service and seek to be like Him in every way. What a wonderful and loving God who, though man turned to sin, gives him a way back to salvation.
The Lord is not slow to fulfill His promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. – II Peter 3:9
