What If God Has Never Been Angry With You?

John Calvin: fire-and-brimstone preacher, harsh predestinationist, theological heavyweight. Or… could he be the theologian who finally convinces you that God is actually, deeply, unshakably loving?

In this compelling article, Rev. Preston McDaniel Hill, Ph.D., uncovers a little-known truth from Calvin’s writings—God is not angry, and never has been. According to Calvin, divine wrath isn’t a real attribute of God but a mistaken human perception. Hell, too, is not a physical place of punishment, but the psychological state of believing God is against us.

This discovery changed Hill’s own faith journey, helping him move past fear-based religion and into a deeper experience of divine love. If you’ve ever wrestled with the idea of a judgmental God or felt trapped by fear-driven theology, this article offers an invitation to spiritual freedom.
