Bible Note: Greetings Doc - sorry to use this thread but I didn't want to post a general question as I would appreciate your insight here. Please comment on this statement I read in a draft of an author's book: "There is no wrath in God." The author's main focus is on God is love; he does not deny that God's wrath exists, but from what I understand, he does not see "wrath" as an attribute. I guess I struggle because I see wrath as a part of God's holiness and justice; mercy w/o justice is not mercy also comes to mind here. Thanks for anything you have to say on this topic. mommapbs PS:reference Ps 78:59 et al. |
