The speaker discusses a quote from C.S. Lewis' book "Mere Christianity" that says "God is love." They explain that while God is perfect and just, saying God is love alone misses the fact that God also has a wrathful side. They mention a controversial verse from Isaiah 45:7 and acknowledge that many Christians debate its meaning. Overall, they emphasize that God is full of love and sent Jesus to die for humanity, but there is more to God than just love, including a potential wrathful side that may not be fully understood. So for our fourth statement, in the book Mere Christianity, C.S. Lewis has a quote that goes like this. All sorts of people are fond of repeating the Christian statement that God is love. What are your thoughts on this? So when I think of God as love, in technicality, God is love. God is perfect and God is just. There's nothing wrong with God. But when people just say God is love, they're missing half the picture that God also has a rat side. In Isaiah 45, verse 7, it says, What do you think of that verse? Yeah, that's a very controversial verse amongst Christians, too, because some will say it's mistranslated or it doesn't mean that exactly. But ultimately, let's jump back to God is love. God is full of love. He is the definition of love. He sent his son Jesus to die for us, to give us redemption, save us, give us eternal life. But you're absolutely right, though. A lot of Christianity is all always showing God's love of things, and it doesn't show God's wrath. And I think that there is a side to God that we, and a lot of Christians, don't understand yet. And I think that verse is maybe just scraping the surface of God's maybe wrath, you could say. And I'm sure there's a lot more to it, too, that the Bible doesn't tell us, like it does in a lot of other things. But ultimately, God is love, but I think there's more to God than just love.
