  1. Jan 4, 2022 · God provided a way to gain divine favor—repentance—which turns God’s wrath away from the sinner. To reject that perfect plan is to reject God’s love, mercy, grace and favor and incur His righteous wrath. The New Testament also supports the concept of God as a God of wrath who judges sin.

    There are a number of words in both the Old and New Testaments that are translated as wrath. These words are also frequently translated as anger. Most generally they refer to God’s response to human disobedience. But the words are also used in relation to a negative human response to other people. There is really no good way to soften “the wrath of...

    The wrath of God is a common expression in the Old Testament. Deuteronomy 9:8is an example of this usage, “At Horeb you aroused the Lord's wrath so that he was angry enough to destroy you.” This combination of God’s wrath, human disobedience, and punishment is a common theme in the Old Testament, especially in the prophets. The primary message of t...

    The concept of God’s wrath can be challenging for us to understand. And that, in large part, is probably due to confusing it with human wrath. Merriam-Webster defines wrath as “strong vengeful anger.” The idea is that someone has wronged me, and I am making every effort to hurt them as much as I can. Human wrath is generally not considered as a com...

    God's wrath and judgment are functions of His love. We would not want a God who was not just. In fact, all of culture cries out for justice. I mean, the highest-rated shows on TV are what? Crime shows, Law and Order, all these, we yearn for justice. A God who didn't have wrath towards sin would not be a God of love, because how could a God of love ...

    Is a wrathful God at odds with a loving God? If you understand wrathful as vengeful, then it might be hard to reconcile these two attributes of God. But if the wrath of God is simply his righteous judgment against sinful humanity, then there is really no conflict between the two. All of humanity is deserving of punishment. And a righteous God would...

    Throughout the Scriptures, God’s wrath is reserved for those who are in rebellion against him. But wrath is never the experience of those who are responsive to his call. Believers may, and do, experience discipline from the hand of God. But that discipline is intended to help us to grow and mature in the faith, and in relationship to God. Wrath tho...

    Some want to ignore any mention of God’s wrath. Others seem to delight in proclaiming God’s wrath against sinful humanity. But how should we respond to those passages that express the wrath of God? I believe it is appropriate for us to place the same emphasis on God’s wrath as did Jesus and his apostles. They clearly proclaimed that God’s wrath was...

  2. May 12, 2023 · What Does the Bible Say about God’s Wrath? I want to share with you three Scriptures that can give us clues into truly understanding God’s wrath. “The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness.”

    • The anger of God is not like our anger. When we speak about the wrath of God, remember that it is the wrath of God. So everything we know about God—he is just, he is love, and he is good—needs to be poured into our understanding of his wrath.
    • God’s wrath is provoked. The anger of God is not something that resides in him by nature; it is a response to evil. It is provoked. The Bible says, “God is love.”
    • God is slow to anger. Why does God allow evil to continue in the world? Why does he not wipe it out? God holds out the offer of grace and forgiveness in Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:9).
    • God’s wrath is revealed now. How does God reveal his wrath when sinners suppress the truth about him, exchange the truth for a lie, and worship created things rather than the Creator?
  3. Oct 12, 2014 · His love for righteousness means that it is necessary for God to hate sin. God's love does not erase His hatred of sin; rather, it demands it. So then, God's wrath is His holy, righteous, just anger against sin expressed by divine judgment.

  4. Wrath can be defined as God’s righteous anger. God loves what is right but hates what is wrong. Scripture has much to say about the wrath of God. This includes the following. 1. The Wrath of God Is Taught in the Old Testament. In the Old Testament, we find that the wrath of the Lord was often directed against the nation Israel.

  6. Nov 4, 2014 · God’s love for his glory motivates his wrath against sin. Admittedly, God’s love for his own glory is a most sobering reality for many and not good news for sinners. It is after all, “a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God” (Hebrews 10:31).
