Patience » Being patient
We ask you brothers to warn the unruly and comfort the fainthearted, support the weak, be patient with all men.
Verse Concepts
A great cloud of witnesses surround us. Therefore let us lay aside every weight, and the sin that easily entangles us. Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us. Look to (consider without distractions) Jesus, the Leader (Predecessor) and Finisher (Perfecter) of our faith. He despised the shame. He endured the stake for the joy that was set before him. Then he sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such contrary talk by sinners against him. You should not get tired and give up in your mind (heart).
Be patient, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receive the early and late rains. You also be patient. Make your hearts firm, for the coming of the Lord is near.
Be devoted to one another with brotherly love, in honor preferring one another. Do not lag behind in diligence. Be fervent in spirit serving God. Rejoice in hope! Be patient in tribulation. Continue in prayer.
You need to persevere in order to do the will of God and receive what he promises. In just a little while, he who is coming will come. He will not delay!
