Hook: Is God's judgment a comfort?

I. GOOD GOD
"God is just, yet his mercy may in some respect said to be more natural to him than all acts of justice. ... When he exercises acts of justice, it is for a higher end, it is not simply for the thing itself. There is always something in his heart against it. But when he comes to show mercy, it is said that he does it with his whole heart. There is nothing at all in him that is against it. The act itself pleases him for itself. There is no reluctance in him." - Thomas Goodwin

II. GOOD NEWS
"A non-indignant God would be an accomplice in injustice, deception, and violence." - Miroslav Volf

Takeaway: Seek shelter!
