The justice of God not respected. The wrath of God not feared. The grace of God not cherished. The presence of God not prized. The person of God not loved. That is sin.

Satanism advocates practicing a modified form of the Golden Rule.

Baptize the soul from wrath and from covetousness, from envy, and from hatred, and, lo, the body is pure.

Rhage, this is Beth, and she doesn’t do movie stars, got it?” “Loud and clear.” Rhage leaned to one side, trying to see around Wrath. “Nice to meet you, Beth.” “Are you sure you don’t want to go to a hospital?” she said weakly. “Nah.

Wrath, unlike love, is not one of the intrinsic perfections of God. Rather, it is a function of God's holiness against sin. Where there is no sin, there is no wrath-but there will always be love in God.

The price of diluting God's wrath is diminishing God's holiness.

Everyone asks me 'how it feels to fly.'
