Last Day Events A Limit to Gods Forbearance With unerring accuracy the Infinite One still keeps an account with all nations. While His mercy is 40 tendered with calls to repentance this account will remain open, but when the figures reach a certain amount, which God has fixed, the ministry of His wrath commences.--5T 208 (1882). {LDE 39.6} God keeps a record with the nations. The figures are swelling against them in the books of heaven, and when it shall have become a law that the transgression of the first day of the week shall be met with punishment, then their cup will be full.--7BC 910 (1886). {LDE 40.1} God keeps a reckoning with the nations. . . . When the time fully comes that iniquity shall have reached the stated boundary of Gods mercy, His forbearance will cease. When the accumulated figures in heavens record books shall mark the sum of transgression complete, wrath will come.--5T 524 (1889). {LDE 40.2} While Gods mercy bears long with the transgressor, there is a limit beyond which men may not go on in sin. When that limit is reached, then the offers of mercy are withdrawn, and the ministration of judgment begins.--PP 162, 165 (1890). {LDE 40.3} The time is coming when in their fraud and insolence men will reach a point that the Lord will not permit them to pass and they will learn that there is a limit to the forbearance of Jehovah.--9T 13 (1909). {LDE 40.4} There is a limit beyond which the judgments of Jehovah can no longer be delayed.--PK 417 (c. 1914).
