slash angry. Here's Paul with How to Be Good and Angry.

Here's the two parallel angers. You have God's holy anger, God's righteous, holy anger.

God, the creator of his world, knows what is ultimately best and right for his world.

His cause is pure, his cause is righteous, his cause is holy.

In every way you could ever describe it, it is the best and right way for everything that exists.

Can I say that again?

God's way in every way that you could ever think about it or ever define it is the right way for everything that exists.

And God is angry in a righteous way for anything that gets in the

way of his righteous cause, his great, beautiful, holy, perfect plan for creation. His way is best. And that anger is actually a good thing. You wouldn't want

God not to care. You wouldn't want him to be complacent. You wouldn't want him to be passive.

You want him to be angry because that anger is literally the hope of the universe.

Imagine a mom watching her child out in front being beaten up.

Imagine that mom not caring.
