Natural disasters Quote by Jeff Turner

““God’s wrath often gets spoken of as though it were only one specific thing. Our definition of it has become very narrow, and we tend to look at it as dealing with either an eternity in hell, or God’s angry responses to human sin via natural disasters or other calamities. However, the two Greek words translated as wrath in the New Testament, orge and thymos, simply speak of displeasure or powerful emotion . For this reason, whatever this thing called God’s wrath is, it is something that can be manifested in a variety of ways, and should not be viewed through the narrow lens of Western theology. Wrath is not a euphemism for hell or for cataclysmic events that God conjures up in His anger, but describes a powerful emotion that sometimes arises as a result of displeasure, and can manifest in a variety of ways.””
