The only reason he had that conversation is because he did love me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When Al finally turned from his prodigal ways, his father\u2019s anger immediately gave way, revealing the deep love that had fueled it all along.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I came back, guess who was right there waiting \u2014 not with hate, not with forsakenness, not with separation, but, \u2018Welcome home, son\u2019? The same dad,\u201d he says. \u201cWhy? Because his love for me never stopped.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of times people think anger is a sin, but it\u2019s not a sin. Anger can lead you to sin,\u201d Al continues, noting that the Bible mentions anger \u201cover 600 times,\u201d but \u201c85% of the 600 times, God is the one who\u2019s angry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To hear the Robertsons dive deeper into the powerful tension between God\u2019s love and wrath \u2014 especially how they beautifully intersect at the cross \u2014 watch the episode above.<\/p>\n<h2>Want more from the Robertsons?<\/h2>\n<p>To enjoy more on God, guns, ducks, and inspiring stories of faith and family, <a href=\"https:\/\/get.blazetv.com\/unashamed\/?utm_source=theblaze&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=article_shortcode_unashamed\" target=\"_blank\">subscribe to BlazeTV<\/a> \u2014 the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scripture has many warnings about anger.
