God warns people so he can save them\par from going to the place of death. {\cf2\super [72]} \par God does that to save a person\par from being destroyed.\par
The evil person is very frustrated,\par and there is no hope for him to\par escape the darkness.\par There is a sword somewhere\par that is waiting to kill him.\par
Maybe that angel will be kind to that person and say \{to God\},\par ‘Save this person from the place of death!\par I have found a way to pay for his \{sin\}.’\par
They don’t trip each other.\par Each soldier walks in his \{own\} path.\par If one of the soldiers is hit and falls down,\par the others keep right on marching.\par
God has been very kind to you. And he has been patient with you. God has been waiting for you to change. But you think nothing of his kindness. Maybe you don’t understand that God is kind to you so that you will change your hearts and lives.
Remember that we are saved because our Lord is patient. Our dear brother Paul told you that same thing when he wrote to you with the wisdom that God gave him.
The Lord is not being slow in doing what he promised—the way some people understand slowness. But God is being patient with you. God doesn’t want any person to be lost. God wants every person to change his heart and stop sinning.
