You are playing scriptural Whac-A-Mole. Instead of dealing exegetically with the texts you whac it down with another scripture...out of context.What you say conflicts with the clear meaning of 2 Peter 3:9. Notice that the object any and all - means all of mankind. Its there twice so that there will be no confusion.
2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.
Who is the "us" in 2 Peter? Peter is writing to Christians and the "us" includes Peter and the Christians he is writing to. So yes, God is not slack concerning His promises to "us" Christians.
Yours in the Lord,
