ABOUT
THIS BOOK....
These are days when
God's love is much spoken about, but to say that
God has wrath or can be wrathful is taboo in many
pulpits and pews. The idea of divine wrath is relegated
to ages when people believed in a grim and judgmental
God, and not in the splendidly loving God we have
discovered in this more liberal day. The writer
is not out simply to defend the idea of God having
wrath, but to break through superficial thinking
on the subject to show that unless we understand
God's wrath we will never really arrive at His
love. Peter Forsyth once said, 'Nothing
will satisfy the conscience of man, which does
not first satisfy the conscience of God'.
A person with a purified conscience is a happy
person. God's wrath is against that which maims
and demeans humanity. The God of long-suffering
does not have a short fuse. His wrath is not 'off
the cuff'. It always presses on in the interests
of love and a peaceful conscience for the human
race.
The Wrath of His Love is
an important book. It is a small book which deals
with a large principle. It will be worth the attention
it demands. For some it will be the discovery of
God's love.
