Nahum 1:6

Who can stand before His indignation?
Who can endure the burning of His anger?
His wrath is poured out like fire
And the rocks are broken up by Him.

Deuteronomy 32

39 'See now that I, I am He,
And there is no god besides Me;
It is I who put to death and give life.
I have wounded and it is I who heal,
And there is no one who can deliver from My hand.
40 'Indeed, I lift up My hand to heaven,
And say, as I live forever,
41 If I sharpen My flashing sword,
And My hand takes hold on justice,
I will render vengeance on My adversaries,
And I will repay those who hate Me.

Note:
Nahum was God’s prophet
of doom to the Assyrians
and their capital, Ninevah,
pronouncing God’s
impending judgment for
their idolatry and
wickedness. They had
avoided God’s judgment
years before when Jonah
called them to repentance,
but this time, God’s wrath
would be ‘poured out like
fire’, and God’s vengeance
realized.
Note:
This passage is from a song
Moses recited to Israel to
warn them that God was a
stern ‘Father’ who would
not tolerate unfaithfulness from His children nor
attacks from His enemies.
Both would be met with His
wrath, make no mistake
about that. You can count
on Him!

The Attributes of God ~ His Wrath (cont)
Hebrew 10:

Observation:

30 For we know Him who said,
"VENGEANCE IS MINE, I WILL REPAY."
And again,
"THE LORD WILL JUDGE HIS PEOPLE."
31 It is a terrifying thing
to fall into the hands of the living God.

Romans 1

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel,
for it is the power of God for salvation
to everyone who believes,
to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed
from faith to faith; as it is written,
"BUT THE RIGHTEOUS man SHALL LIVE BY FAITH."
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven
against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men
who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

Hebrews 10

t Against what the wrath of God is revealed.

Romans 1

Interpretation:
Hebrews 10:30-31 Read Hebrews 10:26-29. Against whom will God’s vengeance fall?

Romans 1:16-18 What is the significance of verse 18 in light of the context?
________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________
How is the wrath of God ‘revealed from heaven’? ____________________
________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________

61

Note:
God, here, declares that
He will take vengeance on
those who reject His
grace. Vengeance is His
and His alone! That makes
His judgment guaranteed
for the wicked.
No one can conceive
what God’s wrath will be
like, but the writer’s
succinct description is
most memorable. It will be
‘a terrifying thing to fall
into the the hands of the
living God’ who is filled
with wrath toward you!
Note:
Immediately following
Paul’s definitive statement
concerning the gospel, he
abruptly inserts the topic
of God’s wrath. It is well
placed, for God’s wrath is
the reason for His gospel.
Faith in Christ credits the
unrighteous with His
righteousness so that they
will never have to
experience God’s wrath!

Final Note:
God’s Wrath is His righteous response toward all unrighteousness. It will be terrifying for the wicked. On the day of judgment no one will be
able to escape, endure or stand. For God’s vengeance is assured to all who have not exchanged their unrighteousness with the righteousness
of God through faith in Christ.

Vengeance is God’s!

He will punish the evil doer!

Who can endure the burning of His anger? His wrath is poured out like fire And the rocks are broken up by Him. Deuteronomy 32 39 'See now that I, I am He, And there is no god besides Me; It is I who put to death and give life. I have wounded and it is I who heal, And there is no one who can deliver from My hand. 40 'Indeed, I lift up My hand to heaven, And say, as I live forever, 41 If I sharpen My flashing sword, And My hand takes hold on justice, I will render vengeance on My adversaries, And I will repay those who hate Me.

They had avoided God’s judgment years before when Jonah called them to repentance, but this time, God’s wrath would be ‘poured out like fire’, and God’s vengeance realized. Note: This passage is from a song Moses recited to Israel to warn them that God was a stern ‘Father’ who would not tolerate unfaithfulness from His children nor attacks from His enemies. Both would be met with His wrath, make no mistake about that. You can count on Him! © 2003 The Discipleship Ministry www.BibleStudyCD.com
  • 2. The Attributes of God ~ His Wrath (cont) Hebrew 10: Observation: 30 For we know Him who said, "VENGEANCE IS MINE, I WILL REPAY." And again, "THE LORD WILL JUDGE HIS PEOPLE." 31 It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Romans 1 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "BUT THE RIGHTEOUS man SHALL LIVE BY FAITH." 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, t Carefully read and reread the text. t Note all persons, nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs. conjunctions & articles. t Ask: Who? What? When? Where? How? & Why? Find answers in the text, only! t Note and mark key words and ideas, as well as their relationships with one another.

Vengeance is His and His alone! That makes His judgment guaranteed for the wicked. No one can conceive what God’s wrath will be like, but the writer’s succinct description is most memorable. It will be ‘a terrifying thing to fall into the the hands of the living God’ who is filled with wrath toward you! Note: Immediately following Paul’s definitive statement concerning the gospel, he abruptly inserts the topic of God’s wrath. It is well placed, for God’s wrath is the reason for His gospel. Faith in Christ credits the unrighteous with His righteousness so that they will never have to experience God’s wrath! © 2003 The Discipleship Ministry www.BibleStudyCD.com
