July 27th, 2025 The post “Gospel of Luke: The patience of God and the dullness of men! [Luke 9:37-42] appeared first on Calvary Chapel Mountain Home.
How wondrous is God's patience with the world today. On every side people are sinning with a high hand. The divine Law is trampled under foot and God Himself openly despised. It is truly amazing that He does not instantly strike dead those who so brazenly defy Him. Why does He not suddenly cut off the haughty infidel and blatant blasphemer, as He did Ananias and Sapphira? Why does He not cause the earth to open its mouth and devour the persecutors of His people, so that, like Dathan and Abiram, they shall go down alive into the Pit?

Bless Gideon. Over and over, he must have worn the Lord out, because he keeps testing the Lord. He asks the Lord to do this, then to do that. He says to the Lord, If you are really going to do this, then do this. Then he says, Well, do that. Over and over, he tests God. Now, I'm not saying that you or I should do this. But the Lord's patience is something, because the Lord knows that Gideon's story was not over. Today, the Lord knows we are human. And He is patient with us, even when we don't deserve it.

Of all the chapters in Genesis, few are as challenging to understand, much less preach, as chapter 38, which recounts a sordid series of events involving Judah and Tamar. As the Tron Church's Willie Philip helps us see, however, this passage demonstrates that while God's arm is strong, it is also long. If He can work into His wonderful story of grace and mercy even people like those in this story, then surely there can't be any darkness or misery so great as to keep Him from doing the same today. Bible passages: Genesis 38:1-30

"Or do you show contempt for the riches of His kindness, tolerance and patience--not realizing that God's kindness leads you toward repentance?" Romans 2:4The patience of God is the majestic restraint of the Almighty—His sovereign forbearance in the face of human sin. Though His justice burns with holy intensity, He delays His wrath. Not because He is powerless to act, but because He is rich in mercy. His patience is not indifference—it is compassion. It is not apathy—it is love.From the days of Noah, when the Lord waited 120 years while the ark was prepared, to the wilderness wanderings of Israel, where He bore their continual murmuring—God has proven Himself astoundingly patient. Even now, as this present world mocks His name and defies His laws, He holds back the flood of judgment that is surely deserved. Every moment of delay, is a miracle of mercy.For the believer, this patience is deeply humbling. How often have we provoked Him—and yet He has not cast us off! How many times have we wandered—and yet He has pursued us still! His patience calls us not to presumption, but to purity. It is not a license to sin, but a summons to holiness."The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise... He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance" 2 Peter 3:9. Every sunrise is a fresh invitation to turn from sin and walk more closely with Him. For the unconverted, it is a solemn warning—do not trample His mercy beneath your feet. His forbearance will not last forever.Let us therefore bow before Him with reverent awe. Let us praise Him for His longsuffering, plead with sinners to flee from the wrath to come, and reflect His patience in h
As a pleasing aroma, I will accept you when I bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you have been scattered. And I will manifest my holiness among you in the sight of the nations (Ezekiel 20:41). Praise the Lord!
Summary: The discussion between Abraham and God before the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah reveals God’s patience as He was willing to hear Abraham out, even though he knew Abraham was wrong. As Abraham tried to negotiate with God, God actually listened and gave consideration to what he said. As with Abraham, God is willing to hear us out too. Scripture Verses: Genesis 18:16-33; Genesis 19:23-29; Matthew 18:21-22

Why hasn't Jesus come back yet? Preached October 27, 2024 Pastor Aaron Frasier
Why do some people experience blessings while others face hardship? Dr. John explores this profound question through the lens of Luke 13:1-9, examining Jesus' response to those who believed suffering was tied to personal sin. Jesus emphasizes that all are deserving of judgment, urging repentance rather than assigning blame. Join Dr. John as he reflects on how we should view the events in our lives and what they reveal about God's mercy and justice.The Unwavering Journey: In this series of messages, Dr. John unpacks Luke 9-13, exploring Jesus' unwavering journey as He sets his face toward Jerusalem, fully aware of the sacrifice ahead. With every step, he moves closer to fulfilling God's ultimate plan of salvation, offering us redemption through his selfless love and ultimate sacrifice.
At the opening of the seventh seal, an unexpected silence sets the stage for a new series of visions, seven angels with seven trumpets heralding judgment upon the earth. Amidst these horrifying disasters, however, God gives us a beautiful picture of His merciful patience and protection of His people. Reverend Alexander invites us to reflect on the mysteries of God's patience and the role of prayer in the unfolding of God's plan on Hear the Word of God.

2 Peter 3:1-13 Rev. Mike Alix
God is extremely patient. He is more patient than anyone on this earth. But his patience will not last forever. It would not be wise to see how long his patience lasts.
2 Kings 13:20-25
God's patience flows outward from His mercy. Thus, because is merciful, He tempers His wrath with restraint so that many will come to repentance. The Lord is patient because He is powerful; it is only the weak who cannot control themselves and allow their rage to boil over.

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION“PATIENCE and I have traveled hand in handSo many days that I have grown to traceThe lines of sad, sweet beauty in her face,And all its veiled depths to understand. Not beautiful is she to eyes profane;Silent and unrevealed her holy charms;But, like a mother's, her serene, strong armsUphold my footsteps on the path of pain. I long to cry, – her soft voice whispers, ‘Nay!'I seek to fly, but she restrains my feet;In wisdom stern, yet in compassion sweet,She guides my helpless wanderings, day by day. O my Beloved, life's golden visions fade,And one by one life's phantom joys depart;They leave a sudden darkness in the heart,And patience fills their empty place instead.”~Edith Wharton (1862-1937), first woman to win Pulitzer Prize “The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference.”~Elie Wiesel (1928-2016), Holocaust survivor and Nobel Laureate “What I long for is a love big enough to be disturbed by what people are doing, and strong enough and patient enough to carry them to the place where Christ wants them to be!”~C. John Miller (1928-1996), Pastor and MissionarySERMON PASSAGE2 Peter 3:8-15 (ESV) 8 But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. 10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed. 11 Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, 12 waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be set on fire and dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt as they burn! 13 But according to his promise we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. 14 Therefore, beloved, since you are waiting for these, be diligent to be found by him without spot or blemish, and at peace. 15 And count the patience of our Lord as salvation, just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you according to the wisdom given him…
Daily Radio Program with Charles Stanley - In Touch Ministries
Dr. Stanley teaches that God is not long-suffering because He sees goodness in us but because He wants to see us saved.
In this episode, Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar dive into understanding God's patience. Man's capacity to grasp the fullness of God's patience remains limited, especially when contemplating our sins in the context of a holy God. The guys discuss the Book of Judges and how it illustrates God's enduring patience, despite the people doing what pleased themselves.God's patience is boundless, contrasting sharply with human limitations. Attempting to compare His attributes, such as patience, kindness, and love, to our personal experiences with the same attributes proves challenging. The guys discuss the Exodus narrative, and how God's patience is evident when the Israelites turn to false idols, yet He refrains from immediate destruction. In this passage is an example of how believers often take God's patience for granted, mirroring the Israelites' behavior. Gratitude should motivate Christians to emulate God's patience, adopting a slow-to-anger attitude and extending grace to others. Trials serve as building blocks for patience, a theme emphasized in James 5, where God's honor is associated with patience.God's patience extends to the refinement of believers. Love, grace, and patience are interconnected, fostering spiritual growth. Reflecting on past wrongs helps believers exercise patience when faced with transgressions from others. Even toward enemies, God demonstrates patience, delaying wrath for the sake of salvation.The ultimate manifestation of patience is seen in Jesus' death. Instead of summoning angels for protection, He patiently endured until death, underscoring the importance of maintaining focus on the Lord. Praying for patience invites opportunities to practice it, often through life's inconveniences. When dealing with unbelievers, Christians are encouraged to be patient, considering the diverse backgrounds from which individuals come. The guys talk about the life of Paul and how it serves as a compelling example of patience, tied to the remembrance of the pre-Christian state.Impatience is labeled as sin, representing a departure from God's love and gentleness. Remembering the grace received from Christ helps temper our impatience. While not every offense requires confrontation, speaking the truth in love remains an essential aspect of Christian interactions. Essentially, God's patience serves as a model for believers, shaping their daily interactions and responses to various circumstances.Where the hosts introduce the podcast giveaway with instructions where and how to participate.
