What can we learn about Micah’s view of God in this passage? Micah 7:18-20
Micah 7:18 - 20
ESV - 18 Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of his inheritance? He does not retain his anger forever, because he delights in steadfast love. 19 He will again have compassion on us; he will tread our iniquities underfoot. You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea.

God is and will always be. God will never leave Himself without a witness. Though His anger is pure and justified, He is loving and full of grace. In the exodus, with all the trials, a remnant was left that entered the promise. In Elijah's time 7000 refused Baal. (1 Kings 9:18) Isaiah 1:9, a small remnant was left instead of total destruction like Sodom and Gomorrah. Romans 9:29 Think of these Bible personalities, Daniel, Shadrach, Abednigo. How about Esther and Mordecai. John the Baptist... During the church age, the believing Jews composed God's witnesses. When the church goes home, still God will have His name declared. Revelation 7:3-8 Psalms express the joy and the sorrows that the tribulation saints will sing. God is and will always be.
