if you acknowledge that the world is fairly broken-people hurting each other, etc... then you'd pretty well have to beleive a benevolent God would take issue with said problems. But to quote Rev. Rathbun, "the more i read the book, i can't tell the judgement and the mercy apart."
When judgement of sin is connected and bound up in God's mercy and forgiveness...its not something to be afraid of....its about being refined and restored, no rejection and anger.
