Revelation 2:21
Revelation 2:21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.
Here followeth the manifestation of Christ’ s patience; "I gave her space to repent of her fornication," that is, Christ did forbear to punish her for a time, expecting that she should repent both of her corrupt doctrine, and also of her wicked life. "And she repented not," notwithstanding all his patience and long suffering, she remained impenitent. \
