This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient Christian rhetorician and philosopher's short treatise, On The Anger of God

Specifically it focuses on his discussion about God being moved by anger to punish, or by mercy to pardon. Lactantius maintains that God is angry against those who break to despise his eternal law, and that punishing is actually protecting the good from the bad, but that there are also good reasons for God to exhibit patience towards human beings and to forgive.
