Scripture: Luke 23:27-43, We are blessed to not have a God that is only severe and we are also blessed to have a God who is not only kind. Our God is a just God who severely punished the sin of the whole world and poured out his full wrath on all humanity. Our God is also the most perfect image of love because he sent his only Son to bear the full weight of his wrath in our behalf so that we might be declared righteous even while we were yet ungodly. True love and true severity.
