The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
All Commentaries on 2 Peter 3:9 Go To 2 Peter 3
Ignatius of Antioch
AD 108
But may those that dishonoured them be forgiven through the grace of Jesus Christ, "who wisheth not the death of the sinner, but his repentance."
