Bible Believing Gentiles

Only God knows the number that will be saved and the last day will not come until those who are to be saved, have been. So no fears that anything would short change one that could have been saved. But, it is our commission to spread God's word so that the full number does come and as quickly as possible.
Just as the OT people longed for Jesus' coming, we should also.
2 Peter 3:12 as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming. That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat.
13 But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells. 14 So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him. 15 Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him.
Romans 11:25 I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in,
The verse you have quoted does not refer to the Day of Christ that we should be waiting for. Everyone should be terrified to be a living flesh and blood man on the day mentioned in 2 Peter 3:12
