Carson Quote - Both God’s love and God’s wrath are ratcheted up in the move from the old covenant to the new, from the Old Testament to the New.

This is quite a contrast with Islam, for example, which holds that the Koran has been dictated in Arabic by God and as a result Mohammed is nothing more than the one who memorizes the word so as to pass it on.
