That's anthropomorphic.<br /><br />There are probably emotions, or something analogous to emotions, that God shares in common humans, but there are, in addition, distinctive human emotions that God can't have. <br /><br />stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16547070544928321788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-60686649730261935602017-11-07T12:55:02.482-05:002017-11-07T12:55:02.482-05:00"However, I think the notion of divine wrath ..."However, I think the notion of divine wrath is somewhat anthropomorphic."

As only Martin can, he unpacked the extent of that wrath in much detail; I don't recall the implications, but the point is subsequent to that (decades later) a fellow believer informed me of contrasting views of the atonement and propitiation. The focus was not upon removal of wrath rather restoration and renewal. Over-simplification I know, yet now I question whether Martin ever studied the subject holistically. <br />chethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05618599197075145791noreply@blogger.com
