How do we know God’s timing for judgment is perfect?

Answered in 1 source

God’s timing for judgment is perfect because He does not act until the fullness of iniquity is complete (Genesis 15:16, Matthew 23:32).

God's timing in judgment is portrayed as both intentional and precise throughout Scripture. In Genesis 15:16, He tells Abraham that the Israelites will remain in Egypt until the iniquity of the Amorites has reached its limit. This emphasizes that God acts according to His divine plan and purposes, ensuring that judgment comes only when warranted. Similarly, in Matthew 23:32, Jesus indicates that there is a destined fullness that the generation of religious leaders must reach before facing judgment. This reflects God’s sovereign grace in providing opportunity for repentance.
