God is so sanguine towards sinners that he can forgive and forgive, regardless of the nature of our sin, accepts us just as we are at the point of our new birth, so seemingly phlegmatic that he can be silent towards his people enslaved in Egypt for 400 years, and letting us crucified His only begotten son on the cross without coming to his aid, letting sinners curse Him and abuse His name on a daily basis, so melancholy that he planned our salvation before the foundation of the world to make us his people, (how melancholy? He prepared a whole nation through thousands of years for the arrival of His Son, our saviour, foreshadowed in the old temple worship system he specifically instructed; the high priest, the sacrifice, the inner sanctuary etc, so that when Christ came, all these things are fulfilled in Him - our high priest who can understand us, having been a human and tempted just as we are, who was God from God, showing us what God is like, was our once for all perfect sacrificial lamb, being without sin from Spirit conceived virgin birth, and also by virtue of having lived a sinless life, our temple where we meet God, where perfect excess to God was provided through his death and resurrection so that we can come to his throne of grace anytime and anywhere), so choleric that His soverign will will always be done according to His marvelous plan to bring us to Himself to the praise of His glorious name!
