In a generation which has given itself unashamedly to the gods of greed, ambition, sex, pride, and self-will, the church mumbles on about the love, tenderness, goodness, kindness, and grace of God. We rejoice that \u201cGod is love\u201d, and that there is forgiveness with him that he may be feared. But, we dare not fail to warn perishing sinners that God is also a God of wrath, that he is angry with the wicked every day, and that he will by no means clear the guilty. Read your Bible through again. The prophets and apostles, and Jesus Christ himself, pressed upon men the terror, fury, and eternality of God\u2019s wrath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The wrath of God is revealed in every man\u2019s conscience by nature, so that they are without excuse. The wrath of God is revealed in history. Go and ask those who have perish&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ed&nbsp;under God\u2019s wrath whether God will punish sin\u2026&nbsp;Adam\u2026Cain\u2026Noah\u2019s generation\u2026Sodom&nbsp;and&nbsp;Gomorrah\u2026Pharaoh\u2026The Sons of Korah\u2026Judas\u2026Jerusalem.&nbsp;The wrath of God is revealed at&nbsp;Calvary. Go to&nbsp;Mt.&nbsp;Calvary, and behold the God-man as he is made to be sin for us. Hear him cry, under the terror of God\u2019s wrath, \u201cMy God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?\u201d I say, the wrath and justice of God were more fully displayed in the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ than would have been possible if&nbsp;all the&nbsp;world had perished in hell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hell is a place of eternal wrath reserved for God\u2019s enemies, where their worm dieth not and the fire is not quenched. All men by nature are sinners perishing under the wrath of God. You do not need to do anything to go to hell. You are condemned already! The only thing that keeps you out of hell for one moment is the mere good pleasure of God. What will you do when God ceases to restrain his wrath! \u201cWho can abide in the fierceness of his anger? Who can stand before his indignation?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Is the sinner, then, without hope? No! Blessed be His name, God is willing to show mercy to perishing sinners for Christ\u2019s sake: Upon the merits of his Son\u2019s satisfactory redemption, God in&nbsp;justice,&nbsp;will forgive sin. Flee away to Christ! Seek his grace! Believe his gospel! Sue for mercy! Why will ye die?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don Fortner<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cThe Wrath&nbsp;Of&nbsp;God Is Revealed\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Romans 1:18 Yes the God of heaven is a God of wrath.
