목양말씀암송 (15) 하나님께서는 언제나 당신이 돌아오기를 기다리십니다 (베드로후서 3장 9절)

베드로후서 3:9 주의 약속은 어떤 이들이 더디다고 생각하는 것 같이 더딘 것이 아니라 오직 주께서는 너희를 대하여 오래 참으사 아무도 멸망하지 아니하고 다 회개하기에 이르기를 원하시느니라 (개역개정) 3:9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. (NIV)

3:9 god, Love—Why has Christ not returned? Has God forgotten his promises? Certainly not! The same love of God that moved him to send his Son Jesus to become our Savior also prompts him to be patient in trying to reach every person possible before the end of time. God’s patience and forbearance have been shown in many ways across the ages. 왜 그리스도께서 재림하시지 않으셨습니까? 하나님께서 그의 약속을 잊으셨습니까? 확실히 그렇지 않습니다! 그분의 아들 예수님을 우리의 구주로 보내도록 한 동일한 하나님의 사랑은, 또한 세상이 끝나기 전에 가능한 모든 사람에게 그분이 다가가도록 인내심을 가지게 합니다. 하나님의 인내와 관용은 여러 시대에 걸쳐 여러 방법으로 나타났습니다.

아버지 하나님, 죄인을 넉넉히 기다리시며 또한 구원하시는 하나님의 놀라운 사랑에 감사드립니다. 언제나 저의 마음을 주님께 돌이키기 원합니다. 회개하며 주님 앞에 나아가기 원합니다. 주님의 은혜에 감사하며 언제나 찬양 드리는 자녀 되게 하여 주시옵소서. 예수님의 이름으로 기도 드립니다. 아멘.
