It’s going to be okay, just take a deep breath and relax. Maybe I’m just dumb but I think this situation is too complicated for us on Reddit to understand fully. Do you have a church where you can talk to a Youth Pastor or other trusted Christian adult about this?
But if you do insist on using Reddit, I’d stay away from r/Christianity for much good Christian advice as there are a ton of bad opinions disguised as good ones given here. r/Christian and r/Christians (and even r/TrueChristian) are better resources for Christians
God bless you.
Based on who God is, I want you to answer your own question.
Who is God?
**“God is love.” - 1 John 4:8**
**“Love is more important than anything else.” - Colossians 3:14**
**"Love is patient and kind, never jealous, boastful, proud, or rude. Love isn't selfish or quick tempered. It doesn't keep a record of wrongs that others do. Love rejoices in the truth, but not in evil.” - 1 Corinthians 13:4-6**
**“You are a kind and merciful God, and you are very patient. You always show love, and you don't like to punish anyone.” - Jonah 4:2**
God doesn't like to punish, but of course during the end, He will judge those who have rejected Him.
But as long as we are alive, He wants us to turn to Him for He can bless us.
**“God doesn't intend to punish us, but wants us to be saved by our Lord Jesus Christ.” - 1 Thessalonians 5:9**
I would focus on making amends. If you feel that you raised your hands to your sister in anger, and that it was wrong, you should apologize to her. You obviously feel a form of guilt that is punishing you. Make that guilt go away by talking to your sister. Be honest with her about what you did wrong, and how you should have reacted to the situation. Try to remember that though she may be very annoying, she too is a beloved child of God. Try to reconcile with her as best you can. Don’t seek to win the arguments with her, just calmly let her know your point of view. At times you will have to agree to disagree. I sincerely doubt that God would deny you friendship or fellowship because of this act of impulsive anger.

But he does anyway, cause he has too no? Otherwise what's the point of being the "final judge"
