    I just let God sort out the details... He saved them, not us or me... Brother Glen:)

    Add to the billions the numberless multitude, just going what the Bible says!

    2 Peter 3:9 [NASB95]
    The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.


    Think of all the people that the Father would have never had the opportunity to “draw” [John 6:44-45] if the Son had returned in 1804.

    Think of all the opportunities added just since 2010!

    Gives new perspective to 2 Peter 3:9, doesn’t it?
