Terrible
God flooded a world, lead wars, brought death into the world as punishment for sin, cursed women to have painful childbirth, cursed man to work the ground all his life, stuck people dead, struck people mute, had them mauled by lions, starved people, and so on and so on. Probably the worst punishment ever inflicted by God is when he hardened Pharaoh's heart so that he could no longer repent of his evil. It is a terrible thing to fall into the hands of a living God.

So God's hands are terrible, but Jesus's hands are life?
I suppose it is one of the paradoxes of Christianity that life and death, blessing and curses, mercy and judgment all flow from the same hands.
