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?

May 12, 2023 · In all three of these verses, we see mention of the wrath of God. What I want you to pay attention to is what the wrath of God is in response to.
