Episode Overview
- God's wrath is motivated by love, aiming to reach the world
- Suppression of truth stems from a state of mind marked by guilt, shame, and fear
- God hands humanity over to the human alternatives they have created in place of Him
- Encourages a faith grounded in the belief that God's goal is to bring individuals to a place of desperate need for Him
- Offers a perspective for those witnessing loved ones battling addiction
The wrath of God, which is motivated by love, is God's great passion to reach the world, because the world has separated itself from him and suppressed the knowledge of God in itself.
Ever thought of God's wrath as an expression of love? In this episode of 'How It Happens with Colin Cook', Colin Cook takes listeners on a journey through the complex idea that God's wrath is actually driven by love. He breaks down the concept, explaining how guilt, shame, and fear lead humanity to suppress the truth. This suppression causes people to create their own alternatives to God, and in response, God allows them to pursue these paths.
It's a seemingly paradoxical move that ultimately aims to bring people back to Him when their self-made idols fail. This episode offers a fresh perspective on faith and addiction, making it especially relevant for those who have loved ones battling addiction. By understanding God's motivations, listeners are encouraged to see how faith can play a crucial role in recovery.
