Bible Note: PS Brother Tim, verse 16 does, actually, mention the unlearned. :-) However, for the edification of our readers, I will mention that I have found at least one Godly man of note who uses 2 Peter 3:9 -- although without explanation -- the way you do: John Wesley. That should be an encouragement in the light of so many other Godly men of note who have interpreted it differently. |
