- Welcome to The Rapid Bull, daily edition, where we provide a quick biblical interpretations and applications.
- 00:12
- This is a ministry of striving for eternity. The last of the four expressions of God's holiness is the attribute of wrath.
- 00:19
- We looked at righteousness, justice, goodness, and now wrath. This is an expression of God's holiness, and this is one that many people have a very difficult time with understanding when it relates to God.
- 00:29
- But wrath is retributionary punishment for an offense or crime.
- 00:34
- And God will give retributionary punishment for offenses when people break his law.
- 00:41
- There is actually a day of wrath, or the wrath, as we see the wrath in Romans 2, 5 or 5, 9.
- 00:49
- And we see the day of wrath in Revelation 6, 16 to 17, that there is a day where God's final judgment will be poured out.
- 00:57
- People think that somehow this cannot be because God is love. That's an attribute we're going to look at in a while.
- 01:04
- But yes, God is love, but it doesn't contradict or work against in any way the fact that God is wrathful.
- 01:11
- God will punish because by divine justice he must punish.
- 01:18
- Now we have to keep in mind that God's wrath in the Bible is never capricious, self -indulgent, irritable, or ignorant of facts.
- 01:28
- When God is wrathful, it is because there was a crime committed.
- 01:34
- There was an offense made. Someone morally did something that was evil against the nature of God.
- 01:40
- And therefore, God is angry with the wicked every day because he's just. It is because of his goodness which balances out his wrath.
- 01:48
- God's wrath reveals the result for those without salvation. This podcast is part of the Striving for Eternity ministry.
