BDBD is Proverb 16:14

Wrath is punishment as a manifestation of anger. God’s anger is due to sin. God’s anger manifests as retribution. Retribution in regards to God’s wrath is justly given in repayment for the wrong done and right not done.

God’s wrath is seen when he kept Adam and Eve from eating fruit from the Tree of Life after they sinned. (Genesis 3:21-24) God’s wrath is seen when he brought a flood to the whole earth because everyone was corrupt and violent. (Genesis 6:11-13) God’s wrath is seen when the Lord God scattered the people building the tower in Bable. (Genesis 11:5-8) God’s wrath was manifested when Ananias and his wife lied about the offering they freely gave. (Acts 5:1-10) “The king’s wrath is a messenger of death…”Jesus displayed anger and rebuked his apostles for not believing others that said he had risen from the dead. (Mark 16:14)

The Lord God becomes angry with sin and his wrath is poured out, but not right away. It is possible to appease God’s wrath. The person who does so is wise according to this verse. 2 Peter 3:9 states, “The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.”

So how to appease the King’s anger and wrath? “Love covers all wrong.” (10:12) “He who covers over an offense promotes love.” (17:9) The Lord God says, “Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.” (Isaiah 45:22)

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.” (John 3:16-18)
