The "Days of Awe" ~ God's anger is not forever!

[FreeInChrist]

Worthy Brief - September 29, 2025 God's anger is not forever!

Isaiah 57:16-17 For I will not contend forever, nor will I always be angry; for the spirit would grow faint before me, and the breath of life that I made. Because of the iniquity of his unjust gain I was angry, I struck him; I hid my face and was angry, but he went on backsliding in the way of his own heart.

The Days of Awe (Yamin Nora'im) remind us of a sobering truth: judgment is real. God is holy and does not overlook sin. Isaiah’s words cut to the heart — iniquity provokes His anger, and rebellion invites His discipline. Israel knew this firsthand, experiencing exile and the pain of God’s hidden face. And yet, this passage does not leave us in despair. For though His anger burns for a moment, His mercy is eternal. He declares, “I will not contend forever.” His discipline is corrective, not destructive; His goal is not to crush but to restore.

This is the hope of the Yamim Nora’im. These days are a call to repentance, not so we might be destroyed, but so that we might be healed. God’s wrath is never the final word for those who turn back to Him. Like a loving Father, He corrects His children but longs to embrace them again. The psalmist echoes this hope: “For His anger is but for a moment, and His favor is for a lifetime” (Psalm 30:5).

Yeshua (Jesus) brings this promise to its ultimate fulfillment. At the cross, He bore the weight of God’s wrath so that mercy might triumph for all who believe. Paul writes, “Since we have now been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through Him!” (Romans 5:9). Judgment is real — but through Yeshua, the door to compassion and restoration stands wide open.
During the Days of Awe, these words strike with prophetic urgency. God’s discipline may be severe, but His mercy is greater still. His anger will not last forever — but our response must not be delayed. Every moment of pride, every step of rebellion, is an invitation to return while the door of mercy is still open. The shofar has sounded, calling us to repentance. The Bridegroom is near. Let us not linger in backsliding hearts, but run to the One who has already borne the wrath in our place. For the King is at the door — and His mercy is reaching out now.

Why are you pasting Worthy Christian Forum’s briefs? Just wondering.

Why are you pasting Worthy Christian Forum’s briefs? Just wondering.

First, they tie the Messianic with Jesus in such a way that they make things easy to understand.

And they have started a series which started with Rosh Hashanah on Sept 22, 2025.

3. You savior and mine, Jesus, was Jewish and celebrated every Jewish Holiday there was.

4. I thought some might be interested in learning the holidays and festivals and how they view
Jesus as the Messiah which each has a bit of commentary on.

5. It is posted in the Messianic Jewish forum and being a Messianic writing for the day that is appropriate.

It’s all written about in God’s Word. s e l a h

So I should not post articles about them? I'm confused.

For though His anger burns for a moment, His mercy is eternal. He declares, “I will not contend forever.” His discipline is corrective, not destructive; His goal is not to crush but to restore.

Please consider:
IF we were created as eternally self and other aware spirits and
IF we were all created with a free will and
IF there is an unforgivable sin, a sin that puts the person outside of all grace and
IF some of HIS creation chose to sin the unforgivable sin and
IF it is true that a little leaven (sin) leavens (corrupts) the whole lump, person, community, then
IF the only way to protect HIS Church and heavenly Family from these eternally evil people was to banish them from HIS heavenly reality,
THEN hell is an absolute necessity to keep the eternally evil ones from corrupting HIS heaven.

Accepting this pov is to accept that your chosen verses apply to those who can be corrected, the legitimate children of Heb 12:5-11, and not to the eternally evil illegitimate children, the people of the evil one, the reprobate weeds and goats who are condemned already, Jn 3:18, to be burned.

@TedT ,Points well taken, but I remind you that the views in the article are not my views but were posted regarding the Jewish Days of Awe.

As is posted above...

The Days of Awe (Yamin Nora'im) remind us of a sobering truth: judgment is real. God is holy and does not overlook sin. Isaiah’s words cut to the heart — iniquity provokes His anger, and rebellion invites His discipline. Israel knew this firsthand, experiencing exile and the pain of God’s hidden face. And yet, this passage does not leave us in despair. For though His anger burns for a moment, His mercy is eternal.

This is the hope of the Yamim Nora’im. These days are a call to repentance, not so we might be destroyed, but so that we might be healed. God’s wrath is never the final word for those who turn back to Him. Like a loving Father, He corrects His children but longs to embrace them again. The psalmist echoes this hope: “For His anger is but for a moment, and His favor is for a lifetime” (Psalm 30:5).

And we all know the importance of repentance for all who come to Christ IF we are looking for that eternity in heaven.

KJV: 1 John 1:9, which states, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." This emphasizes the importance of confessing sins for receiving forgiveness.

And the article finishes upp with

Yeshua (Jesus) brings this promise to its ultimate fulfillment. At the cross, He bore the weight of God’s wrath so that mercy might triumph for all who believe. Paul writes, “Since we have now been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through Him!” (Romans 5:9).

Which certainly is not inclusive of all, but that is by their choice today. And seemingly so back in OT days. These 10 days of repentence ... the days of Awe follow Rosh Hashanah, (Jewish New Year.) And these 10 days lead upto Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement.

So for Israel back in the day... and moving into today These holidays were/are very important and the days of Awe ... the Repentence... obviously was as important back then as it is to us today.

I have only post two of the articles from these folks but there has been a wealth of information in what I am receiving and
each and every one ties Jesus into the mix.

Such as from above "Yeshua (Jesus) brings this promise to its ultimate fulfillment. At the cross, He bore the weight of God’s wrath so that mercy might triumph for all who believe.

See God has provided all a way so that God's anger with us is NOT forever.

I believe this is applicable to free will people because the predestined ones dont exactly need it like I do. IMO.

Anyway, it had been my intention to post those of education and Judeo/Christian ties.... i.e. the Messianic with the Christian beliefs... but I got the sense that things are not going so well on that score... so OI wont post anymore.
