God's disposition is His own inherent essence, which is not changed at all by the passage of time, and nor is it altered by changes of geographical location. His inherent disposition is His intrinsic essence. Regardless of whom He carries out His work upon, His essence does not change, and neither does His righteous disposition. When one angers God, what God sends forth is His inherent disposition; at this time the principle behind His anger does not change, nor do His unique identity and status. He does not grow angry because of a change in His essence or because different elements arise from His disposition, but because man's opposition against Him offends His disposition.

Man's flagrant provocation of God is a severe challenge to God's own identity and status. In God's view, when man challenges Him, man's contesting Him and tempting His anger. When man opposes God, when man contests God, when man continuously tempts God's anger, it's at such times when sin runs rampant; God's wrath will naturally reveal and present itself. Therefore, God's expression of His wrath is a symbol that all wicked forces will cease to exist, and it's a symbol that all hostile forces will be destroyed. This is the uniqueness of God's righteous disposition, and of God's wrath.
