Why is God's long-suffering important for believers?

Answered in 1 source

God's long-suffering allows believers time to repent and grow, reflecting His patience and mercy.

God's long-suffering is a testament to His character as portrayed in 2 Peter 3:9, where it states that God is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. This attribute showcases His patience with sinners, giving them opportunities to respond to the Gospel. For believers, understanding God's long-suffering assures them of His grace and encourages them to live out their faith actively while remaining aware of their dependence on His mercy.
