What God Has Done He Can Do It Again

2 Peter 3:9  

"The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; 

but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, 

but that all should come to repentance." 

    Peter does not hesitate to place the commandments of himself and the other Apostles of Jesus on a level with the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and he repeats his admonitions (reproof), because of the urgency of the crisis then threatening the Church. Apparently there was a well-grounded fear that the church would relax her attitude of expectancy and give in to the materialistic philosophy of that age and ours as well.
   My Friends, Men argue just from the appearances of things, and especially from the regular routine of cause and effect. Sometimes we do not realize that, from time to time, there are the intrusion of the divine personal will into the course of history, introducing a higher set of laws and arresting the ordinary succession of events; as for instance, the Flood and the Miracles of Old Testament History. Why, then, "can't" the ordinary course of nature be broken in upon by the Second Advent, when the Lord shall gather His saints about Him and reign gloriously? What God has done He can do again! "There is a person and a will behind the slight veil of the present life."
Amen!
