Word of the Day - 11/26/2008

Dilatory

Dilatory means tending to delay or procrastinate; slow; tardy.

II Peter reminds its readers that the Lord is not dilatory regarding divine promises. The author specifically had the the second coming of Christ in mind.

The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you,not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance. (II Peter 3:9, NASB)
