…he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. – John 3:36
“He shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.” “The wrath of God!” No words can ever fully explain this expression. Holy Whitefield, when he was preaching, would often hold up his hands, and with tears streaming down his eyes, would exclaim, “Oh, the wrath to come! The wrath to come!” Then he would pause because his emotions checked his utterance.
The wrath of God! I confess I feel uneasy if anybody is angry with me, and yet one can bear the anger of foolish, hot-tempered persons with some equanimity. But the wrath of God is the anger of the One who is never angry without a cause; One who is very patient and long-suffering. It takes much to bring choler into JEHOVAH’s face yet is He wroth with unbelievers. He is never wroth with anything because it is feeble and little, but only because it is wrong. His anger is only His holiness set on fire. He cannot bear sin, who would wish that He should? What right-minded man would desire God to be pleased with evil? That were to make a devil of God. Because He is God, He must be angry with sin wherever it is.
This makes the sting of it, that His wrath is just and holy anger. It is the anger, remember, of an Omnipotent Being, who can crush us as easily as a moth. It is the anger of an Infinite Being, and therefore infinite anger, the heights and depths and breadths and lengths of which no man can measure. Only the incarnate God ever fully knew the power of God’s anger. It is beyond all conception, yet the anger rests on you, my hearer. Alas, for you, if you are an unbeliever, for this is your state before God. It is no fiction of mine, but the word of inspired truth, “The wrath of God abides on him.” ~ C.H. Spurgeon

Sherry, thanks for this post. To think that we know this and that we would not warn those presently walking directly toward it by their actions must be one would think, also some offense to God. Yet, within the church we have those who refuse not only to warn them, but they criticize our every attempt at doing so. I don’t know just how God will judge their inactions or their criticisms, but knowing that His wrath is coming we surely must warn all concerned about the ignoring of it.
God’s love which we also are to spread will not cover His wrath unless Christ’s blood is applied to so grave a sin.

Amen! We need to remember our commission is to spread the Gospel and our Beloved will take care of the rest. But also let us be examples of Christ’s love for others that we may win some to Him.
Have a blessed night, Jerry, amen!
