We live in a world, where comfort wins over truth. And though we may not like to admit it, our desires of how we wish to view this world often shapes the way we see God.
Christians of today don't alway see the WHOLE picture of God put forth in the Bible. Much of that comes from modern religion focusing more on feelings than on the inherent word of God. In doing so we miss the most important thing the Bible teaches us, we miss seeing the very character of God.
We take the parts of God's character that best fits our needs and motives, basically God in a "me" sized box. We miss his greatness, his power, his awesome beauty.
When we focus on God's love and overlook his wrath and subsequent mercy we miss the whole picture, we miss what makes God so great.
