Sounds like a threat, like force.
Yet because Jesus Christ has died on the Cross, God will never be angry again with us:
"9For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee." (Isaiah 54: 9)
and
"To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation." (2 Corinthians 5: 19)
At the Cross, the following joined in a kiss:
"Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other." (Psalm 85: 10)
The confirmation of this truth John reports in his gospel. Regarding mercy(grace) and truth:
"17For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ." (John 1: 17)
Regarding righteousness and peace:
"21For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him." (2 Corinthian 5: 21)
and
Because we are now His beloved, we can now rejoice and sing:
"2Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine." (Songs 1: 2)
You no longer have to seek Jesus, but rather let Jesus kiss you, for God is no longer angry at you.
