The God of Justice
I used to love the God of love – but the God of justice, yeah, not so much.
The God of love seemed so much nicer than the God of justice. The God of love liked to be with people. He understood people. He was kind and compassionate.
The God of love didn’t seem to spend his time punishing people so much. He didn’t seem to delight in smiting people in his mighty wrath.
Now I’ve changed my mind. I can honestly say that I love the God of justice.
God is a God of love and love rescues. Love vindicates. Love rights wrongs. And these are all the purposes of God’s justice.
As followers of Jesus we should pursue justice and it should spill over into every aspect of our lives.
Some people think this is a political thing. It’s not a philosophical thing and it’s not a social thing. It’s a Christian thing.
If God loves justice, then why shouldn’t you?
As followers of Jesus we should pursue justice and it should spill over into every aspect of our lives.

Thank you for sharing this. Our God is a God of Love and He is also a God of Justice. I think that is fair. If we want Justice, then, we have to be fair and just in how we live with and treat others.
