Watch“God responds to me in wrath because of my sin. God responds to me in love because of who He is. If there is no sin, there is no wrath, no judgment…How wonderful the love of the Savior is, in that, he meets this wrath. The same God who stands over against us in wrath because of our sin, stands over against us in love because of who He is.” —Don Carson
