God's Word to the Wise

A Word to the Wise

I was once told that God cannot be both just and merciful. Yet that is exactly what He is. “God is infinite, eternal, and unchangeable in His being, wisdom, power, holiness, Justice, (Emphasis added) goodness, and truth.” (WSC answer #3) His perfect justice leaves Him no other option but to condemn all who have sinned, and “All have sinned…” – Romans 3:23 BUT… God was merciful in giving His son, Jesus, to be condemned in our place. “For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” – 2 Corinthians 5:21 Thereby paying our debt in full, removing our guilt, and putting us in perfect standing before the Just Judge. “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” – Romans 8:1

I plead with you to Repent of your sin, believe that Jesus suffered, died, and rose from the dead; satisfying the penalty due you, and become His disciple.
