Wrath vs Love
Sadly today, more than ever, there is a divide in the church; on one side you have those who want to hear more of the wrath of God.
On the other side you have those who want to hear more of the love of God.
For the new Christian it can be a confusing division when strong sentiments are voiced on both sides. What are they to do? What should they believe?
As for me, I look through all scriptures through the lens of Mark 12:29-31,
"Jesus said, "The first of all the commandments is: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one. And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.' This is the first commandment. And the second like it is this: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'
There is no other commandment greater than these."
To clarify how this is to be walked out I've listed some New Testament scriptures. If you obey these you will not err by much.
