AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Peter 3:8 ¶ Nevertheless, do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years is like one day. [Ps 90:4] |
Subject: 1 day is 1000 years, why? |
Bible Note: I think that the question would have been a little more thought provoking if the relation between us and the thousand years as one day might be thought to change when we are in the presence of God. i.e. will we feel the same way then as God, and not be concerned with time any longer; and at what point in the future will this happen if it does happen? Rev. 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. Time might be one of the former things that are passed away. |
