God is righteous when He judges and when He forgives
A skeptic may ask: 1. "Is God unjust who inflicts wrath? " Rom 3:5 Certainly not! (vs 6) But why? This is because there is none righteous (vs 10), and the whole world is guilty before God (vs 19). For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God (vs 23). So God is right to judge all unrighteousness! 2. "Is God unjust when He forgives sins?" Certainly not! But why? This is because sinners are justified by the redemption of the blood of Christ (Rom 3:24-25). So God is just, and the justifier of sinners who exercise faith in Him (vs 26) Praise God, for He is both just and righteous when He condemns sinners to hell and when He pardons sinners unto eternal life!
