My god is fair
Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas
SUMMARY: The justice of God is a recurring and necessary theme in the Bible. Man has inverted essential values and upset standards of justice, but God offers justice and mercy to those who seek Him. The Christian is called to seek justice based on behavior and performance before God, other believers, and non-believers. The righteous are not perfect but long for perfection in response to life in the Spirit. The Bible illustrates that the righteous are the upright in heart, those who show mercy, the faithful believers, the oppressed and needy, those who hope in God, those who seek His face, those who esteem salvation and afflict their hearts when they sin, those who trust and fear God, the meek, the poor in spirit, those who love His word, the humble, and those who seek peace. God's greatest manifestation of justice was the sacrifice of His Son Jesus to erase our sins and bring us salvation.
The justice of God is a cardinal theme in the Bible, recurring and necessary. Much more in this age where the most essential values have been inverted by the debauchery of an apostate culture and the standards of justice have been upset by the sin of the impious man. Man, in his madness, he strives to achieve his ambitions and does it on his own no matter who he drags; he delights in the pursuit of the material and has forgotten that there is a just God who offers justice and mercy if he prostrates his heart first and seeks the values of his kingdom. The word of God speaks for itself: "Rather, seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you" (Mt 6.33).
God's justice speaks of man's relationship to his creator and of a supreme act of his sovereignty in imparting mercy to those who seek him with all their hearts. The justice that the Christian is called to seek before God is based on his behavior and his performance before God, before other believers and before unbelievers. God wants sons and daughters who do not approach their relationship with Him based on religiosity and the fulfillment of norms and standards of godly appearance, but through an intense and humble relationship that glorifies Him. The only one who is truly righteous is God. Make no mistake, God's justice is a gift, as is faith. Faith is the basic component of our spiritual architecture, the just will live by it -… "because the just will live by faith" (Galatians 3.11b) -, not by the merits achieved in the struggles against the earthly enemy.
