- But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.
- The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
- But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.
For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ.
