The sinfulness of people is the proof of God. This statement sounds counterintuitive but it is true. God proves that he is God by his grace to sinners. Grace was never an afterthought or a plan B in the mind of God. The obvious expectation of God is to ferociously judge transgressors. Historically false gods did such. An angry volcano god wipes out the inhabitants of the island. An angry rain god would not let in rain and the people would suffer from a lack of food and crops.
