Paul answers two important questions surrounding God's character through this passage: 1) How can a loving God judge people and send them to hell? and 2) How can a just God allow evil to go unpunished? Paul explains that God has wrath against sin and humans suppress both His general and special revelation. A video by William Lane Craig is shown on the fine-tuning of the universe to explain God's general revelation. Paul explains that rather than glorifying God, humans make gods for themselves. This results in God's passive judgment as people experience the consequences of their sin. God's wrath, justice, mercy, and love were all simultaneously demonstrated at the cross where humans can be spared from the active wrath of God.
