The Goodness and Severity of God

What kind of a God do we believe in and speak about? The answer affects our lives profoundly. Most of us would answers in terms of God’s love, but what does God’s love mean to an unbeliever? In contrast, Scripture concentrates on God’s goodness and righteousness and one day, He will punish and banish evil from the world.

Through the Cross and Resurrection, God offers us His own righteousness, provided we are willing to repent of our sins and our self-righteousness.The world needs to know about God’s offer of His righteousness.
