*Context; a response to a comment arguing with what the blog is saying. Specifically that a forgiving and loving God shouldn't be wrathful*

re: 1, see the update above
re: 2 actually God is angry at sinners all the time. read your bible. "God is a righteous judge, And a God who has indignation every day. If a man does not repent, He will sharpen His sword; He has bent His bow and made it ready.—"(Ps 7:11-12). The gospel is that God came to us in Christ to pay the penalty for our sins. But those who do not repent remain children of wrath (Eph 2:1-3, John 3:36)
re:3 You are apparently a Pelagian heretic who denies the fall.
re:4 Think there is a distinction to be made between filial love, the love of father to child, that God extends only to believers (see John 1:12) and the general love that God has for all creatures and all creation, which is what John 3:16 is getting at. The problem Anne points out is that the song is referring to filial love (father-child) when, in fact, God does not have that kind of love for the unregenerate.

Glad Anne has good theology and doesn't worship the culture shaped god of eternal affirmation who you seem to be promoting
