Psalm 11:4-7

⁴The LORD is in His holy temple;

the LORD is on His heavenly throne.

His eyes are watching closely;

they examine the sons of men.

⁵The LORD tests the righteous and the wicked;

His soul hates the lover of violence.

⁶On the wicked He will rain down fiery coals and sulfur;

a scorching wind will be their portion.

⁷For the LORD is righteous; He loves justice.

The upright will see His face.

— Psalm 11:4-7

Noah, Violence, and Grace

Article by James Nored & Phil Ware

The story of Noah fascinates children, but the message of Noah also reminds us of the Creator's heart being broken by humanity's penchant for violence. James Nored and Phil Ware remind us that violence is not God's plan, but humanity's corrupt and wicked propensity to injure and mar those created in the image of God.
