What the Bible says about God's Sternness
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Romans 11:22 He minces no words in informing us that patient kindness and sternness are both aspects of God's character. Despite how we might feel at any given time during a trial, He has showered us with abundant kindness. This understanding, however, must be balanced with the knowledge that His demeanor toward us can be reversed if we waste so great an opportunity as the grace He so abundantly pours out on us. We, too—though His elect—can be objects of His sternness. John W. Ritenbaugh Eating: How Good It Is!
