God's anger as we
discussed yesterday- was a justifiable anger, a righteous anger it was NOT
self wrought, it did NOT stem from selfish motives because God could NEVER be
selfish, never it's not possible.
God in creating us
was selfless- He gave us the freedom of choice from our creation. If He had wanted He could have made us
puppets, but He did not. His anger stems from the knowledge that His love -
the only thing that can give Mankind what they need to be fully the creatures
He knows they can be- is purposefully rejected by man's choice and though He
tries to get mankind to comprehend they consistently and endlessly refuse His
love.
I know what it is
like to want someone to do something that is only good for them only to have
them refuse. Do you know what that is like? It's frustrating isn't it? You
love them, you want good for them, it breaks your heart that they will not
listen. Now on the level of Creator with Creation God has ALL of Creation in
His thoughts, not just a single person, but ALL. When PEOPLE refuse,
absolutely refuse the truth He knows their end and it's not an end of love
because they've chosen so. They've chosen. God's wrath has been unleashed in
various events through natural occurrences as well as through those God chose,
and this wrath was revealed in hope of turning people BACK to their Creator
and away from themselves and gods that existed for them who were not their
Creator - the Only TRUE God. In the days of Noah… evil had consume ALL but
eight people. God could have ended the HUMAN existence, but He didn't.
Gen 6:5 And
GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every
imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
Gen 6:6 And
it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at
his heart.
Gen 6:7 And
the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the
earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air;
for it repenteth me that I have made them.
Gen 6:8 But
Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
Noah found GRACE…
Noah wasn't perfect, but Noah found GRACE in the eyes of the LORD.
There is anger in
us, but it is not the anger of God. Our anger usually stems from selfish
roots, not selfless. We can have a righteous anger, but no anger we have is an
anger we should keep in us for long- righteous or not.
More on this
tomorrow by the GRACE of our LORD, the WILL of our LORD JESUS CHRIST, our
SAVIOR, our CREATOR, now and forever!!!!!!!
