How do we know that God's judgment is postponed?

Answered in 1 source

God's judgment is temporarily withheld until all His elect are gathered into salvation.

In Revelation 7, we see an angel holding back the winds of judgment, symbolizing God's wrath. This teaches us that God's punishment will not be unleashed until all of His chosen ones have been gathered. The apostle Paul highlighted this in Acts 13:48, where those appointed to eternal life believe the Gospel. Thus, the delay of judgment reflects God's mercy and patience, waiting for the fullness of His elect to come to faith before His final wrath is executed upon the wicked.
