How is God’s anger turned away from sinners?

Answered in 1 source

God's anger is turned away through the propitiation made by Christ's sacrifice.

The Bible teaches that God's anger, which is His just wrath against sin, is turned away by the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ. As noted in the sermon, 'His anger is turned away' signifies that Christ's death on the cross satisfied the justice of God, effectively acting as a propitiation for the sins of His people. In Isaiah 12:1, it says, 'Though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou comfortest me.' This underscores the necessity of Christ's atonement for redemption, emphasizing that salvation can only be received through faith in Him. Understanding this doctrine provides peace and assurance to believers, knowing that their sins are fully paid for by Christ.
