I was reading Brother V's Day 240 lesson (from the excellent Bible in a Year forum) where I happened upon the following marvel (emphasis mine):
... and, of course, destruction ensues.
The workings of God's Mind is a beautiful mystery. I've always wondered how He time manages his anger; for example, He knows His prophets will be ignored, so does He allow Himself to become angry only when the ignoring officially takes place? Or, because He knew since the beginning of time that His prophets would be ignored, did He become angry prior to the creation event itself?
So, does He have a eternal slow-burning anger with the occasional wrathful outburst, or does He sort of "surprise" Himself with His anger -- like a dog chasing its tail (please forgive the comparison), pretending unto Himself that every wrath-inducing event is something new? I imagine the latter would make His existence more interesting.
