Edward T. Welch Quote

Therefore, we cannot rightly say, My God is not a God of judgment and anger; my God is a God of love. Such thinking makes it almost impossible to grow in the fear of the Lord. It suggests that sin only saddens God rather than offends him. Both justice and love are expressions of his holiness, and we must know both to learn the fear of the Lord.
