As Christians, we realize that sin is real and that sin is the reason God's wrath is coming.  We are all sinners and justly deserve that wrath.  On the other hand, we also realize that our God is a loving God.  He is both merciful and gracious. Unfortunately we often only preach one of these two truths.  We either overemphasize His wrath at the neglect of His love, or we overemphasize his love at the neglect of His wrath.  As Christians its important to identify what is your tendency and work to balance out the message given your unique situation.
