God's Wrath

Dear Victorious,

Do you think God is still angry over our sin?

Dear Kendall,

Yes, I do. God doesn't change. And His character and nature are revealed in splendid detail throughout the Old Testament. His reaction to our sin is no different today than it ever was for any of His people. The difference today is that we have Jesus standing between us and God. So we experience His wrath differently than people did before. We also atone for our sins and reconcile our relationship with God differently (i.e., through Jesus) than they did back then.
