The Lord is... not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9
PE 3:9{Then why do any perish? Simply because they won't come; because they will not yield to the winning love and the drawing power which is now being put forth to save you, if, as you read this, you want to be saved. There is no sadder word in the Bible than "Ye will not come to Me, that ye might have life." But if you are saying, ever so feebly and faintly, "I will," God meets it with His strong and gracious "Thou shalt.”
What will you do without Him,
When He hath shut the door,
And you are left outside, because
You would not come before?
When it is no use knocking,
No use to stand and wait,
For the word of doom tolls thro' your heart,
That terrible "Too late!”
