God's Judgment/Anger/Wrath is a righteous punishment against the wicked.
What happens to mortal men or what children would do are irrelevant.

God's Judgment/Anger/Wrath is a righteous punishment against the wicked. God?s anger is always directed at the wicked people that are hurting his children.
Now that's not really true is it? How many times has anyone said "Why do bad things happene to good people?" If your statement were true good people would never have bad things happen to them, because they are good, and god would not need to punish them.
If this is true and god exists can his judgement be trusted.
If absolute power corrupts absolutely, what does omnipotence do to you?

Wouldn't that mean that God disproves of our police force? And the judges in court?
God is God for crying out loud. You can't compare a divine being to a human being.

That's presupposing that bad things are always punishment from God, which I don't think they are. Our world is not perfect, bad things happen, this has been discussed over and over. Just because bad things happen doesn't mean God makes them happen.

If we're all built in gods image then we must have something in common with God. Was God always God, born into omnipotence? it's a real chicken/egg thing what came first god or the universe, can even an omnipotent being such as god exist in a void of nothingness.
If god created the universe who created god?
The creator of the creator must exist, God could not have just magically appeared before the existance of our reality.
If god exists it was brought into existance by something.

Why are these silly games played in every single thread?
Are you a Christian? I ask only to further my understanding of where you're coming from.
It is all silly. Look at this board. Look at the threads. The threads are the same subjects posted over and over with the same people posting the same comments.

You obviously don't think that or you wouldn't continue to post.

I don't know if there are any other times when gods "wrath" is mentioned or if this is the only time.
But I have one question about god's wrath. Why does god have wrath?
Wrath is one of the seven deadly sins! God has commited one of the deadly sins here, how can this be?
Or is god allowed to sin?
