The Justice of God

 In our nation justice has given way to political power. The Supreme court justices have been selected by politicians who choose the judges often because of their political views. This ought not to be. They swore an oath to uphold the constitution of the United States. Some, however seek to upend the constitution.  A judge should uphold the laws. Unfortunately some think they are above the law and allow politically correct lawbreakers to escape justice.  The highest justice is from God. His laws and precepts are absolute and good and in the end all people will be judged by Jesus the Son of God,  who has been given all authority to judge by His Father. In our land we have justice of the peace judges " appointed to hear minor cases, perform marriages, grant licenses, etc., in a town, county, or other local district." There is another judge who is called the Prince of peace who will judge all people according to His word.

Pro 21:15  When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers. 

Mat 23:23  “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cumin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faithfulness. These you ought to have done, without neglecting the others. 

The ultimate criteria to be free from the punishment of a holy God is to receive the forgiveness by believing in the salvation given by Jesus Christ.

Rom 2:16  on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus. 

John 14:6  Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

If you face the judge thinking you are a good person, that will not save you from separation from God and eternal punishment.    God cares about you and loves you and has given you a way to escape the judgement and wrath of a holy God.

 John 3:16  “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. 

I tell you the truth. Jesus in you satisfies the justice of God.
