Consequence 6 of denying wrath: trivializes sin and produces narcissism

A sixth consequence is that dismissing wrath trivializes sin. Without wrath, sin is reframed as merely self-harmful rather than a cosmic offense against a holy God. In pastoral counseling (including domestic violence contexts), Mike observes that the lowest motivation to change is self-interest. Removing God's wrath produces a Christianity oriented around personal benefit rather than love for God, which cultivates narcissism.
