Drinking the Cup

God's judgment is actually cause for celebration, not fear, for three key reasons. First, it promises an end to evil and suffering in the world, addressing our deep longing for justice. Second, unlike human judgment which is flawed and hypocritical, God judges with perfect knowledge and fairness. Finally, through Christ's sacrifice on the cross, believers are spared God's judgment—Jesus drank the cup of God's wrath meant for us. This mirrors the Passover, where judgment passed over those marked by the lamb's blood, and offers profound hope that evil will not have the final word.
