Journey to see God: see His goodness and longsuffering

God's divine goodness and longsuffering come together. We are required to emulate God just as the apostle Paul has stated in his letters to Timothy. It is the sign of a new creation, a child of God, born of the Holy Spirit. It comes together with the other godly characteristics. It is manifested in the salvation of Christ Jesus, and a pattern for all believers in Jesus!
