I will more than happily concede to Brother Larry's conclusions ---as strightfoward truth ----and that God does create the "calamities," etc..,--as a result of wrath and judgement, etc..,
However ---I was bringing up the alternative explaination, of it also meaning, God is "administering" what is happening in the world, to provide safe passage, even within judgement and wrath ---for those who suddenly do repent,
And of God being in charge of all ---to the extent of making sure that "Satan's Evil" is controlled and restrained, by the Power of God ---to make sure satan's "own wrath" does not allow him to do all he wishes to do,
In the context ---of those who question, or try and imply other things about God -from this and other passages --so as to twist truths about God, for attempted evil purposes ( of course meaning no disrespect for those who simply question, what a passage means, in truth, and while seeking the truth ) will not prosper, in their attempt to attack God, before Us, as believers in the Purity and Holiness of God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
