Rev 6:16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

I thought Jesus is the Lamb.

Gail, the "wrath of the lamb" means "the lamb's wrath."

Neferiel, John the Baptist said of Jesus:
"Behold, The Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world."

Remember

2Pe 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

If you read the gospels, you will find many times when Jesus displayed "wrath" or anger against his enemies. He drove the money changers out of the temple on two occassions. He called the pharisees "white washed tombs", "seeds of satan" and many other names. He warned that sinners would end up in a place where "the fire is never quenched and the worm does not die". And he told others to "flee from his wrath which is to come".

But while Jesus did (and will in the future) show wrath, it is correctly addressed only against those who deserve it. Once of the advantages of being "all-knowing". You always know the right thing to do - including when "wrath" is needed.

Jesus isn't coming back the sweet simple baby and the gentle prophet from 2000 years ago. He comes the next time to be the judge of all the people that ever lived.
At the end, everything changes, the division of the good and the bad, basically the wrath of God.

FROM the wrath of the lamb. It didn't say the lamb that IS wrath. The wrath comes from God. God's wrath have been revealed in times past and is currently being revealed.

Yes, just like the bike of mike. It's mike's bike...It is the lamb's (Christ's) wrath. It is His wrath. I don't know how to make it any more plain than that.

Jesus is the Lamb. Jesus does have wrath that when Jesus is going to put his 1,000 years kingdom on Earth, before this, God will give one final chance to those who still not believe. From the Bible, we conclude that God is Holy and Perfect, so that means that anyone that has sin must be punished. That will be the wrath of God. It is sort of condemning you because of sin. Jesus still loves you, but because of that sin, you are to be punished.

Jesus and the Father are One. And God does indeed have wrath. Jesus is the Lamb, not because he is incapable of anger, but because He is the sacrifice offered in payment for our sin.

Jesus is the lamb. Jesus also does have wrath. Why do you think He doesn't? The Bible says "be ye angry and sin not" and it also says that we shouldn't be angry at someone without a cause. But in Jesus' case, don't you think His wrath towards people is justified? I mean, look at how people spit on Him and mock His name and everything about Him and reject Him. People blaspheme and flout His word. His anger is justified entirely and not sinful.

THAT lamb is NOT speaking of Yahshua the Messiah. It is speaking of the false religious system that was coming to power at the time, namely at the hands of Constintine, it is called Roman Catholicism. It is a WOLF in SHEEPS clothing. DUH!
HOWEVER, the wrath you seem to be so insistant upon is better spelled out in this passage: Why not use it instead?
Luk 19:27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay [them] before me.

Jesus is the Lamb of God.
He is also the Lion of Judah.
He is a loving Father now,
and in the Last Days, He will be a thorough Judge.

Hi,

Good question, just a comment about it:

the wrath of the Lamb or of God, means this:

""Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of My pasture! . . . Behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings." "Howl, ye shepherds, and cry; and wallow yourselves in the ashes, ye principal of the flock: for your days for slaughter and of your dispersions are accomplished; . . . and the shepherds shall have no way to flee, nor the principal of the flock to escape." Jeremiah 23:1, 2; 25:34, 35, margin.

Ministers and people see that they have not sustained the right relation to God. They see that they have rebelled against the Author of all just and righteous law. The setting aside of the divine precepts gave rise to thousands of springs of evil, discord, hatred, iniquity, until the earth became one vast field of strife, one sink of corruption. This is the view that now appears to those who rejected truth and chose to cherish error. No language can express the longing which the disobedient and disloyal feel for that which they have lost forever--eternal life. Men whom the world has worshiped for their talents and eloquence now see these things in their true light. They realize what they have forfeited by transgression, and they fall at the feet of those whose fidelity they have despised and derided, and confess that God has loved them.

The people see that they have been deluded. They accuse one another of having led them to destruction; but all unite in heaping their bitterest condemnation upon the ministers. Unfaithful pastors have prophesied smooth things; they have led their hearers to make void the law of God and to
persecute those who would keep it holy. Now, in their despair, these teachers confess before the world their work of deception. The multitudes are filled with fury. "We are lost!" they cry, "and you are the cause of our ruin;" and they turn upon the false shepherds. The very ones that once admired them most will pronounce the most dreadful curses upon them. The very hands that once crowned them with laurels will be raised for their destruction. The swords which were to slay God's people are now employed to destroy their enemies. Everywhere there is strife and bloodshed.

For six thousand years the great controversy has been in progress; the Son of God and His heavenly messengers have been in conflict with the power of the evil one, to warn, enlighten, and save the children of men. Now all have made their decisions; the wicked have fully united with Satan in his warfare against God. The time has come for God to vindicate the authority of His downtrodden law.

i hope it was understandable and clear, it is found in a christian book called "the Great Controversy" written by Hellen G. W page 655.2-657.1

Greetings
Grace be with you
