We are the ones in a hurry, impatient. God has all things ready in due time according to his schedule. We are told that the sign of Christ, a sun like object, shall appear in the heavens. If this is a dwarf star that shall come near the earth, it will come according to its orbit. All things on earth will be adjusted according to its appearance.
We are also told that when the nations become wrathful then it is time for the end. Thus, we are very very close to the end. But, saying very close can easily be many years in human terms.
8 But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.
He's giving everyone a chance to learn about Him. He set things in motion long ago to let us jknow when He will return. People are usually too disbelieving to accept or even recognize the signs. He is waiting unti everyone hears about Him, and has an opportunity to be saved. I believe that time is fast-approaching. Faith is individual, Don't argue avbout socialization. Everyone will have a chance. That's the hold up.
He says when his coming will be (albeit in general terms). People waited for thousands of years for the Messiah to come the first time. Why is it such a surprise that he hasn't come again?
