What does it mean that God is a God of judgment?

The sermon highlights the aspect of God's nature as a righteous judge who will not clear the guilty. Malachi questions, 'Where is the God of judgment?' emphasizing that God is weary of false assurances that everyone is loved without accountability for their sin. Throughout Scripture, God demonstrates His judgment against sin, as shown in the days of Noah when only eight souls found grace amidst a wicked world. This aspect of God's character is crucial for understanding the seriousness of sin and the need for genuine repentance and faith in Christ, who bore the judgment for His people.
