In the story of Jonah, everyone knew Ninevah was wicked. God was prepared to destroy them. But He still loved them. And he sent Jonah to them. Jonah didn't want to go. Jonah wanted Ninevah to get what they had coming to them. Enter very big fish, swallows Jonah, Jonah decides to obey and go. Ninevah repents! Jonah is mad, because Jonah wanted Ninevah destroyed.
9 And God said to Jonah, Doest thou well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, [even] unto death. 10 Then said the LORD, Thou hast had pity on the gourd, for the which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night: 11 And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, wherein are more than sixscore thousand persons that cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand; and [also] much cattle?
God's love is eternal. There's not a person on earth that God didn't knit together in his mother's womb and who God doesn't care for. But God anger at injustice and evil is eternal too. And God will destory evil if the people won't repent.
God loves us before we're his. He loves us despite the sin. But He won't tolerate the sin for ever.
Jacob I loved.
