Ezekiel 33:11 — God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked

Why God's Wrath is Good 00:19:32 – 00:20:34

Mike demonstrates Old Testament consistency on God's wrath and mercy.

Ezekiel 33:11 records God declaring 'I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live.' God sends prophets urging people to repent before judgment falls, showing that wrath and mercy coexist even in the Old Testament. The existence of divine wrath does not negate God's desire for reconciliation.
