Conflicting emotions?

Romans 5:8-9
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.

The plethora of personal pronouns can make the passage a little tricky to follow, but in back to back verses, we see the love and the wrath that God the Father has towards us. In vs. 8, His love is demonstrated by the fact that He sent His own Son, Jesus Christ to die for us. One verse later, we see that it is the death of Christ that saves us from the wrath of God. Does this make sense? Can God be that loving and that wrathful towards us all at the same time?

We have to view this in light of God's deity--not simply in light of human emotions. Because He is perfect, He can love perfectly; but because He is righteous and just, He must hate sin. So as natural-born sinners, we've naturally incurred His wrath. However, His love is perfect enough to find a way to spare us from the wrath we've brought upon ourselves. Praise God for making a way through Christ so God's wrath could be satisfied while we were spared in love!
