GOD IS NOT MAD AT YOU
Discover how God's relationship with mankind changed through the once and for all atoning sin offering of Christ and the exhaustion of God's wrath toward sin
HOW CAN WE MAKE SUCH A BOLD CLAIM?
LET'S LET THE BIBLE SPEAK FOR ITSELF.
Isaiah 54:5-10
For your Maker is your husband, The Lord of hosts is His name; And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel; He is called the God of the whole earth. For the Lord has called you Like a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, Like a youthful wife when you were refused,” Says your God. “For a mere moment I have forsaken you, But with great mercies I will gather you. With a little wrath I hid My face from you for a moment; But with everlasting kindness I will have mercy on you,” Says the Lord, your Redeemer. “For this is like the waters of Noah to Me; For as I have sworn That the waters of Noah would no longer cover the earth, So have I sworn That I would not be angry with you, nor rebuke you. For the mountains shall depart And the hills be removed, But My kindness shall not depart from you, Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed,” Says the Lord, who has mercy on you.
AS A RESULT OF THE ONCE AND FOR ALL SACRIFICE OF CHRIST AS THE SIN OFFERING FOR THE WORLD, GOD WOULD NO LONGER BE ANGRY WITH US.
2 Corinthians 5:17-21
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
THIS IS THE FULFILLMENT OF JEREMIAH AND ISAIAH'S PROPHECIES ABOUT THE NEW COVENANT AND GOD'S EVERLASTING GOSPEL OF PEACE.
