What is God's wrath?
God's wrath, in perfect harmony with all His divine attributes, is the holy action of deserved and proportional eternal condemnation upon unbelievers for sin.
The wrath of God is the response of a holy and righteous God against sin and sinners who have not been covered by the atonement of Christ.
God's wrath is the settled, determined, eternal righteous response of God in punishing unrepentant human sin.
Why is sin against God such a big deal?
Five different expressions or descriptions of the wrath of God in scripture:
- Eternal wrath
- Eschatological wrath
- Cataclysmic wrath
- Consequential wrath
- Wrath of abandonment
The Good News is that God has provided the way of deliverance from His wrath:
Romans 3:21-26
Romans 5:1-10
God's wrath and God's love met at the cross
God shows Himself just, for sin is punished in Christ. God also shows Himself full of mercy, for the atonement of Christ means that He can now be totally forgiving of sinners who turn from their sin and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, being eternally redeemed through the shedding of His blood.
Colossians 1:13-14
Hebrews 7:25
