"But He, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned He His anger away, and did not stir up all His wrath." -Psalm 78:38
Many times I would praise God for who He is, and for what He has done. Our flaws didn't change Him & it will never change Him. No matter what we do in this life His love is constant and unfading. Though He gets angry if we sin and make mistake, isn't that a normal reaction especially when the person important to you is involve, you get mad because you want them to do what is right/just for their own benefit and so to keep your relationship intact as well.
Sin separates us from God (Isaiah 59:2) and sin leads us to death (Romans 6:23). God loves us, which means He doesn't want to be separated from us... When we love someone we want to be with then now & then and for ever, right? Also God is not happy when a person dies, His desire for man is to repent & live (Ezekiel 18:32).
Blessed are those who believed in Christ Jesus...those serving a living God, who is compassionate, forgiving/merciful, faithful & hopeful. It is good to know our God and in who He is & in what He is capable of doing. Blessed we are because we all deserve to die & be in hell, but to God be the glory for allowing us to be saved & for turning His anger away & not allowing His wrath be upon us. His grace has forgiven us & salvation is upon us thru His Son Jesus Christ. The consequences of our actions has been taken away from us, who took it? The sinless man... and Son of God, Jesus Christ when He was nailed on the cross & died on your stead because of our sins. FYI, Yes He died on the cross but on the third day He rose again and Jesus claimed victory over death. Jesus is the only way we can be reconciled with God the Father, He is the only way God the Father gave us, no other way... one way Jesus. He is the only way, so that God's wrath will not be upon us. If we just believe in what He did on the cross for all of us.
To God be the glory!
