Yes, but even your "present tense" has a time factor associated with it. Not every one of the murderers fell dead, on the spot, in the very same instant God declared He was angry with them. Often God took months, and even years, to raise armies, have them march hundreds of miles, set up camp, and engage in sieges of many months endurance to enact His wrathful vengeance upon certain people groups.
I agree that the Lord gave the Judeans many years to repent themselves from all they had done, and yet they didn't. That is why I believe the 67-70 AD destruction of Jerusalem was the Lords uttermost wrath in 1 Thess.

The Lord is patient, and waits for everyone to repent and believe in His Way.
His patience will, however, come to a close for Jews and all unbelievers in His Way.
so you do not believe now day Jews have opportunity to repent anymore?

Perhaps you would benefit from a bit of study on just what "the wrath of God" is in the Bible. It was often NOT a violent outburst of Holy Anger. Many times it was a resolute decision of God's to let certain situations work out, over decades, to their eventual and predictable results. When you read, "the wrath of God", do not automatically assume fire and brimstone. The words of the Bible show us that was not always the case.

Truthfully, TOO OFTEN A LOT OF US SEARCH FOR VIOLENCE AND ANGER when we read of almost any action, of any kind, at any time, on God's part.
I am sorry, I am not quite understand your answere, English is my second language.

so do you believe holocaust that kill 6 millions Jews was God wrath or not?

Saya tidak berpikir kita harus melihat Tuhan seperti biasa marah.

thank for using Indonesian. So you do not believe that holocaust is wrath of God. Am I correct?
I do not believe WRATH is just (only) the ANGER of God.

I believe God can love AND allow us to experience WRATH... at the same time. (simultaneously)

I believe WRATH generates from LOVE......... NOT from ANGER.

Definition of wrath

1:strong vengeful anger or indignation

2:retributory punishment for an offense or a crime :divine chastisement.


How about AD 70 is that wrath?
