Bible Note: Surely you're not saying that this is in reference to a thousand year millenium. I believe he is clearly referring to the Lord's patience. Peter states that some will say this... 2 Peter 3:4 Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. If you're saying the day of the Lord is a process that will take a thousand years, I believe the next verse contradicts that too. 2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. These verses indicate that "all things [will] continue as they were from the beginning of the creation" and then "the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night" This is also in agreement with the Lord Jesus. Luke 17:26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. 27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
