While unpopular to acknowledge, God's burning wrath is a real consequence of sin, but his grace and mercy offer a path to peace and forgiveness. In Exodus 32, we see Moses standing in the gap between the sinful Israelites and a holy God. As the greater Moses, Jesus bridges this gap for us and goes well beyond what Moses did all those years before. On the cross, Jesus alone fully absorbs God's wrath for those who have placed their faith in him, offering peace with God for all who believe.
