GOD IS A GOD OF JUSTICE:
“…HE GAVE his only begotten Son…” (John 3:16 KJV). “…[God’s son, Jesus]... [GAVE]... His life a ransom for many...” (Matthew 20:28 KJV). “...For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given ...you...[Jesus]... to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul…” (Leviticus 17:11 KJV). “...[God, the Holy Spirit, through Jesus]... did this so that the just requirement of the law would be fully satisfied for us....” (Romans 8:1-14 NLT). “…the just for the unjust, that he might bring ...[mankind back] to [himself] …” (1 Peter 3:18 KJV). “..[Mankind can NOW choose to be]... reconciled to God by the death of his Son...” (Romans 5:10 KJV). “…He restoreth [their]...SOUL[s]…” (Psalm 23 KJV). “….Jesus Christ [can]...maketh [mankind]... WHOLE (AGAIN)…” (Acts 9:34 KJV).
*
God, the Holy Spirit’s characteristic of JUSTICE sets HIM apart from ALL others. The WAY he has demonstrated and expressed his desire for the WELL-BEING of mankind’s SOUL is MORE than praise-worthy. “…[God, the Holy Spirit, through Jesus].... came to seek and to save THAT WHICH WAS LOST…” (Luke 19:10 KJV). “…the body without (apart from) the spirit is dead…” (James 2:26 KJV). “…It is the SPIRIT who gives “LIFE”; the flesh profits nothing…” (John 6:63 NASB).
Mankind OWED God, the Holy Spirit, a DEBT of SIN, which meant they’d PAY with their life through DEATH, but he DECIDED to PAY the DEBT “IN FULL” instead. “…the wages of sin is death…” (Romans 6:23 KJV). “...through one man sin entered (gained access, through disobedience)... into the world, and death through sin, and so death passed to all men, for that all sinned—“(Romans 5:12 KJV). “...NOW all have sinned and fall short of the glory (the breath of life) of God...” (Romans 3:23 KJV). “...The life of the flesh is in the blood: and I (God, the Holy Spirit) have given ...you...[Jesus]... to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul…” (Leviticus 17:11 KJV). “...[God, the Holy Spirit, through Jesus]... did this so that the just requirement of the law would be fully satisfied for us....” (Romans 8:1-14 NLT).
Thus, the WELL-BEING of mankind’s SOUL was COSTLY, because it required the DEATH of his SON, JESUS. “… [God]...spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all (all of mankind)...” (Romans 8:32 KJV). “…HE GAVE his only begotten Son…” (John 3:16 KJV). “…[God’s son, Jesus]... [GAVE]... His life a ransom for many...” (Matthew 20:28 KJV).
The MOTIVE behind God, the Holy Spirit, gesture of MERCY, through Jesus, regarding the well-being of man’s soul, was LOVE. “…God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son...” (John 3:16 KJV). “... Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us....” (1 John 4:10 KJV). “…Christ (his son).... suffered for sins, the just for the unjust …” (1 Peter 3:18 KJV). “…There is no greater love …” (John 15:13 NLT).
God DESIRED to restore mankind’s SOUL and make them WHOLE again, AND he also DESIRED to be RECONCILED into a “covenant unity” relationship with them too. “…the just for the unjust, that he might bring ...[mankind back] to [himself] …” (1 Peter 3:18 KJV). “..[Mankind can NOW choose to be]... reconciled to God by the death of his Son...” (Romans 5:10 KJV). “…He restoreth [their]...SOUL[s]…” (Psalm 23 KJV). “….Jesus Christ [can]...maketh [mankind]... WHOLE (AGAIN)…” (Acts 9:34 KJV). “…May God himself [through Jesus]… make you holy and whole, put you together … [again]—spirit, soul, and body …” (1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 MSG). “... and [mankind can become] ...living soul[s again] …” (Genesis 2:7 KJV).
The INTEREST of God, the Holy Spirit, in the well-being of mere, finite mankind’s SOUL speaks VOLUMES about his DIVINE character of HOLY LOVE. “...what are mere mortals (mankind) that [God, the Holy Spirit]... should think about ...[them], [mere, finite human beings that [HE]... should care for [THEM?” (Psalm 8:4 NLT). "...What is mankind that you make so much of them, that you give them so much attention...” (Job 7:17 NASB). "...What are people, that you should make so much of [them[, that you should think of [them] so often?...” (Job 7:17 NLT).
God, the Holy Spirit’s INTEREST in the well-being of mankind’s SOUL becomes a long-term commitment, he is WILLING to make and expresses it OPENLY. “…God [the Holy Spirit, through Jesus, his Word]... has said “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you…” (Hebrews 13:5 NIV). “…I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, to the very end…"(Matthew 28:20 NIV). Truly, “…God [is]..with us…” (Matthew 1:23 NASB). “…If we are unfaithful, he remains faithful, for he cannot deny who he is…” (2 Timothy 2:13 NLT). It is a TRUTH, “…Not one of all the LORD's good promises … failed; every one was fulfilled...” (Joshua 21:45 NIV).
God, the Holy Spirit’s commitment to the well-being of mankind’s soul is FREE and UNDESERVING. “…[Salvation is FREE and comes] through God’s kindness …[It does] not [come]... by [mankind’s] good works. For in that case, God’s GRACE (unmerited favor) would not be what it really is—free and undeserved…” (Romans 11:5 NLT). “… [God is the ONE who was] …not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance...” (2 Peter 3:9 KJV). “… AS MANY as received him, to them GAVE HE POWER TO BECOME THE SONS (daughters) OF GOD, even to them that believe on his name…” (John 1:12 KJV). “…WHOSOEVER shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved...” (Romans 10:13 KJV).
God is NOT expecting reciprocity from mankind nor will he BENEFIT in anyway. “…God is love…” (1 John 4:4-8 KJV). “…everything he (God, the Holy Spirit) does is right and all his ways are just....” (Daniel 4 NIV). “...He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he...” (Deuteronomy 32:4 NIV). “… “I AM WHO I AM …” (Exodus 3:14-15 NASB). “…I change NOT…” (Malachi 3:6 KJV).
God’s JUSTICE does not CHANGE it ALWAYS gives a person what they ARE DUE. “...whatever a person sows, this he(she) will also reap. ..” (Galatians 6:7-8 NASB). “...For the one who sows to his (her) own flesh will reap destruction from the flesh...” (Galatians 6:7-8 NASB).
God is ALWAYS FAIR because he NEVER shows BIAS toward people and EVERYONE is equally offered SALVATION through Jesus without impartiality. “……There is NEITHER Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female…” (Galatians 3:26-28 KJV). “…God SHOWS NO FAVORITISM. In every nation HE ACCEPTS those who fear him and do what is right—…there is peace with God through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all…” (Acts 10:34-36 NLT). “…God is no RESPECTER OF PERSONS: But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. The word which God sent … preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)…” (Acts 10:34-36 KJV).
It is God’s FAIRNESS that SAVES, every lost and spiritually dead soul, through Jesus, from God’s JUSTICE or getting, the punishment, they TRULY deserve: DEATH. “...But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name...” (John 1:12). “...He predestined [the redeemed]... to adoption as sons and daughters through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will...” (Ephesians 1:5 NASB).
“...I give them eternal life...” (John 10:28 NLT). “... “…BY GRACE have ye been saved through… FAITH (through dependence upon God’s WORD); and that NOT OF YOURSELVES, IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD; not of works, that no man should glory…” (Ephesians 2:8-9 ASV). “…The GIFT of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ ….” (Romans 6:23 KJV).
“…But he(she) that is joined unto the Lord is ONE SPIRIT….” (1 Corinthians 6:17). “…Jesus Christ is in [them]…” (2 Corinthians 13:5 KJV). “...[God’s people]...ARE ALL ONE (together) IN CHRIST JESUS…” (Galatians 3:26-28 KJV). Jesus said: “...I and my Father are one (forever)..." (John 10:30 KJV). “…that they also may be [one] in Us (forever)…” (John 17:21-23 NASB). “... [They]…are [ALL]… part of the same body, and enjoy the promise of blessings because they belong to Christ Jesus...” (Ephesians 3:6 NLT).
“... thanking the Father. He has enabled you to share in the inheritance that belongs to his people, who live in the light ...” (Colossians 1:12 NLT). “… [Everyone who belongs, to him through Jesus, however, and] … who believe the Good News share equally in the riches inherited by God’s children… because THEY BELONG TO CHRIST JESUS…” (Ephesians 3:6 NLT).
God, the Holy Spirit, through Jesus was the FIRST and GREATEST philanthropist. A philanthropist MAKES “every” effort to IMPROVE the well-being of mankind by LOVING assistance or donations. Jesus Christ PROMOTES the welfare of the human soul “..[Mankind can NOW choose to be]... reconciled to God by the death of his Son...” (Romans 5:10 KJV). “…He restoreth [their]...SOUL[s]…” (Psalm 23 KJV). “….Jesus Christ [can]...maketh [mankind]... WHOLE (AGAIN)…” (Acts 9:34 KJV).
God, the Holy Spirit, is RICH. There is “... the riches of His grace...” (Ephesians 1:7-8 NASB). “…He is “SO” RICH in kindness…” (Ephesians 1:7 NLT). “… the riches of the glory (PRESENCE of God)…” (Colossians 1:27 NASB). “…the riches of his glorious inheritance (bountiful spiritual blessings)…” (Ephesian 1:18 NIV). “... RICH IN MERCY (debt of sin, paid in full)…” (Ephesians 2:1-5 KJV). (Isaiah 63:9 NASB).“… the riches…of [God’s]….wisdom and … [revelation]...knowledge….” (Roman 11:33-34). “…He is “SO” RICH ...that he purchased [mankind’s]... freedom [from sin]...with the blood of his Son and forgave [“all” their]... sins…” (Ephesians 1:7 NLT). “... the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering...” (Romans 2:4 ASV). “… HIDDEN RICHES of SECRET PLACES…” (ISAIAH 45:3).“…[God] …will generously (RICHLY) PROVIDE all … [mankind] need…” (2 Corinthians 9:8 NLT).
God, the Holy Spirit is RICH and his GENEROUSLY SHARES his wealth with the POOR soul. “...If you help the poor, you are lending to the Lord— and he will repay you...” (Proverbs 19:17 NLT). “...Blessed are those who are generous, because they feed the poor...” (Proverbs 22:9 NLT). “...Whoever gives to the poor will lack nothing, but those who close their eyes to poverty will be cursed...” (Proverbs 28:27 NLT). “...If someone has enough money to live well and sees a brother or sister in need but shows no compassion—how can God’s love be in that person? Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions...” (1 John 3:17-18 NLT).
“… [Everyone who belongs, to him through Jesus and] … who believe the Good News share equally in the riches inherited by God’s children… because THEY BELONG TO CHRIST JESUS…” (Ephesians 3:6 NLT).
“...However...the riches [are]...inherited by God’s children…” (Ephesians 3:6 NLT).“… because THEY BELONG TO CHRIST JESUS…” (Ephesians 3:6 NLT).
ALL of mankind is God’s CREATION, but HIS CHILDREN are those who BELONG to God, the Holy Spirit, through Jesus Christ. “...But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name...” (John 1:12). “...He predestined [the redeemed]... to adoption as sons and daughters through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will...” (Ephesians 1:5 NASB).
“...I give them eternal life...” (John 10:28 NLT). “... “…BY GRACE have ye been saved through… FAITH (through dependence upon God’s WORD); and that NOT OF YOURSELVES, IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD; not of works, that no man should glory…” (Ephesians 2:8-9 ASV).
“…But he(she) that is joined unto the Lord is ONE SPIRIT….” (1 Corinthians 6:17). “…Jesus Christ is in [them]…” (2 Corinthians 13:5 KJV). “...[God’s people]...ARE ALL ONE (together) IN CHRIST JESUS…” (Galatians 3:26-28 KJV).
Jesus said: “...I and my Father are one (forever)..." (John 10:30 KJV). “…that they also may be [one] in Us (forever)…” (John 17:21-23 NASB). “... [They]…are [ALL]… part of the same body, and enjoy the promise of blessings because they belong to Christ Jesus...” (Ephesians 3:6 NLT).
“... thanking the Father. He has enabled you to share in the inheritance that belongs to his people, who live in the light ...” (Colossians 1:12 NLT). “… [Everyone who belongs, to him through Jesus, however, and] … who believe the Good News share equally in the riches inherited by God’s children… because THEY BELONG TO CHRIST JESUS…” (Ephesians 3:6 NLT).
God, the Holy Spirit, gives EVERY one of HIS CHILDREN the SAME INHERITANCE, through JESUS. God’s FAIRNESS is a part of his DIVINE nature, which NEVER changes, and explains WHY he TREATS every child the SAME with equal and equitable LOVE.
God’s character trait of FAIRNESS is GUIDED by his immutable HOLINESS and DIVINE LOVE. One child of God does NOT get MORE or LESS that any other child of God.
Thus, enjoying the BENEFITS of an, equal and equitable, inheritance DEPENDS upon each individual, redeemed child of God. God has EQUIPPED every child with the SAME gifts and bountiful spiritual blessings. “…The HOLY SPIRIT …gives all these [FREE]... GIFTS… (1 Corinthians 12:4-11 NLT). “… The God of peace … that great Shepherd of the sheep, equip[s] [his children]... with everything good for doing his will…” (Hebrews 13:20-21 NIV). “… The God of peace … that great Shepherd of the sheep…work[s] in [his children]… what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ…” (Hebrews 13:20-21 NIV). “…his divine power hath given unto [his children]... ALL THINGS…” (2 Peter 1:3 KJV).
“…The GIFT by grace……” (Romans 5:15 KJV). ”… ye [are]…saved through faith…it is the GIFT of God…” (Ephesians 2:8 KJV). “…The GIFT of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ ….” (Romans 6:23 KJV). “….ye shall receive the GIFT of the Holy Ghost…” (Acts 2:38 KJV). “…the GIFT of righteousness…” (Romans 5:17 KJV). “…I am leaving you with a GIFT—peace of mind and heart...” (John 14:27 KJV). “…God has given us different GIFTS for doing certain things well…” (Romans 12:6 NLT). “…every man (woman) hath his proper GIFT of God...” (2 Corinthians 7:7 KJV). “…Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable GIFT(S)…” (2 Corinthians 9:16 KJV). “…[These are] ALL THINGS (and GIFTS) that pertain unto life and godliness…” (2 Peter 1:3 KJV).
“…God is the one who provides …[for his children]...” (2 Corinthians 9:10-13 KJV). “… God will supply all [his children need]…” (Philippians 4:19 NASB). “…God will generously PROVIDE all … [his children NEED]…” (2 Corinthians 9:8 NLT). “….The Lord is “[his children’s]” shepherd [they]... shall “not” want [for nothing]….” (PSALM 23:1-3 NLT).
God, the Holy Spirit, HELPS his children too. “…He helps [his children]…” (Psalms 28:7 NLT). “…The Lord who made you and helps you says: Do not be afraid …my servant …my chosen one…” (Isaiah 44:2 NLT). “… The Holy Spirit helps [his children] in our weakness…” (Romans 8:26 NLT). “…You are my helper and my savior…” (Psalms 40:17 NLT).
“…God (the Holy Spirit)... is love…” (1 John 4:8 KJV). “…The …HOLY SPIRIT (and God, the Father) …is the SOURCE of [your HELP] …it is …God who does the work IN and THROUGH [HIS children]. The HOLY SPIRIT DISPLAYS God’s power THROUGH each of ...[his children] … (1 Corinthians 12:4-11 NLT).
“...[God, the Holy Spirit, through Jesus, encourages his children to] come boldly unto the throne of GRACE, [that they]… may obtain mercy, and find GRACE to help in time of need…” (Hebrews 4:16 KJV). God, the Holy Spirit, will “…strengthened [his children]… with might by his Spirit in the inner man (woman)…” (Ephesians 3:16 KJV). “… [He will strengthen HIS children]…according to the POWER that worketh IN [THEM]…” (Ephesians 3:20 KJV). “… God … work[s] … in … [his children] … what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ…” (Hebrews 13:20-21 NIV). “…the Father... [that DWELLS within THEM]… he doeth the works…”(John 14:10 KJV).
God, the Holy Spirit, will be FAITHFUL, to his children, forever. “…I AM “WITH” [my children]... ALWAYS, to the very end…"(Matthew 28:20 NIV). “…If … [my children] … are unfaithful, he (god, the holy spirit,]... remains faithful…” (2 Timothy 2:13 NLT). “…The GIFT by grace (undeserved kindness)……” (Romans 5:15 KJV). “…I am the Lord, I change NOT…” (Malachi 3:6 KJV). “...Jesus Christ (God’s WORD) is the same yesterday and today and forever...” (Hebrews 13:8 NIV).
God is a God of JUSTICE and FAIRNESS; NOT REVENGE or INJUSTICE. God, the Holy Spirit PREFERS to MAKE people RIGHT with HIM, because he DELIGHTS in showing and sharing the RICHNESS of HIS MERCY instead of wrath, judgement, or punishment. “...HE DELIGHTETH IN MERCY…” (Micah 7:18 KJV). “…Mercy triumphs over judgement.” (James 2:13 NASB).
God, the Holy Spirit and GREAT philanthropist demonstrates his LOVE and MERCY by reconciling mankind, restoring their souls, and making them WHOLE again, the lost and spiritually dead souls. “..[Mankind can NOW choose to be]... reconciled to God by the death of his Son...” (Romans 5:10 KJV). “…He restoreth [their]...SOUL[s]…” (Psalm 23 KJV). “….Jesus Christ [can]...maketh [mankind]... WHOLE (AGAIN)…” (Acts 9:34 KJV).
However, they must CHOOSE to RECEIVE his provisional JUSTICE through Jesus. The human will can “…choose this day this day whom [it wants to]...serve…” (Joshua 24:15 KJV). “….if any man (woman) hear my voice, and open the door… repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions ... confess with thy mouth, the Lord Jesus ... [and]...in humility receive the word implanted...[it]...is able to SAVE YOUR SOULS..” (Revelation 3:20, Romans 10:9-10, Ezekiel 18:30 KJV, & James 1:21 NASB).
“… AS MANY as received him, to them GAVE HE POWER TO BECOME THE “SONS” (daughters) OF GOD …” (John 1:12 KJV). “…God sent forth his Son…to redeem [mankind]….that [they].. might receive the adoption of sons…” (Galatians 4:4-5 KJV). “…You will receive the GIFT of the Holy Spirit….” (Acts 2:38 NASB). “…A man (woman) can receive nothing, except it BE GIVEN him (her) from heaven…” (John 3:27 KJV). “…Every good GIFT and every perfect GIFT is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights…” (James 1:17 KJV).
The BRIGHT SIDE of God’s JUSTICE is that he is a GREAT philanthropist that GENEROUSLY and FREELY shares the RICHES of “HIS” SALVATION with LOST and spiritually POOR souls and it SAVES their lives from eternal condemnation, through Jesus’ atonement, and MAKES them RIGHT with God again.
HOW GREAT God, the Holy Spirit is and WORTHY of ALL the PRAISE! He could have, VERY EASILY, let ALL of MANKIND go to HELL and spend eternity separation from HIM.
In the Old Testament when God sent a tenth and final plague upon the Egyptians, his GENEROUS philanthropist activities SAVED the righteous and obedient Israelites INSTEAD of destroying them. The death of the firstborn of both people and animals was the tenth plague.
This meant ALL died, except the righteous and obedient who were COVERED by the BLOOD as God, the Holy Spirit had instruction them to for their PROTECTION. (READ Exodus 11:1-12:36). “…This is what the Lord says: At midnight tonight I will pass through the heart of Egypt. All the firstborn sons will die in every family in Egypt, from the oldest son of Pharaoh, who sits on his throne, to the oldest son of his lowliest servant girl who grinds the flour. Even the firstborn of all the livestock will die. Then a loud wail will rise throughout the land of Egypt, a wail like no one has heard before or will ever hear again. …” (Exodus 11:4-8 NLT).
The righteous and obedient children of Israel that painted their door posts with the sacrificial blood of an animal, as instructed, did not lose their firstborn to death. “… But among the Israelites (God’s children) it will be so peaceful that not even a dog will bark. Then you will know that the Lord makes a distinction between the Egyptians (his creations) and the Israelites (his children)…” (Exodus 11:4-8 NLT).
This created a FEAR in the hearts and minds of the Egyptians. “… All the officials of Egypt will run to me and fall to the ground before me. ‘Please leave!’ they will beg. ‘Hurry! And take all your followers with you.’ Only then will I go!” … The Lord caused the Egyptians to look favorably on the Israelites, and they gave the Israelites whatever they asked for. So they stripped the Egyptians of their wealth!...” (Exodus 11:4-8, 12:34 NLT). “...A good person leaves an inheritance for their children’s children, but a sinner’s wealth is stored up for the righteous...” (Proverbs 13:22 NIV).
“…BY THE WORD of the Lord the [Israel, his righteous children, were delivered out of the house of bondage] …” (Psalms 33:6 NASB). “…I am the Lord, I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians...” (Exodus 6:6-7 KJV). “…The Lord bought [Israel, his righteous children] out with a mighty hand and redeemed [them] out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of…Egypt. … (Deuteronomy 7:8 KJV).
God, the Holy Spirit, DELIVERED thousands that night. “…That night the people of Israel left Rameses and started for Succoth. There were about 600,000 men, plus all the women and children…” (Exodus 12:37 NLT).
The Israelites, God’s righteous children, had been in slavery, in the land of Egypt, for over 430 years. “…The people of Israel had lived in Egypt for 430 years. In fact, it was on the last day of the 430th year that all the Lord’s forces left the land. On this night the Lord kept his promise to bring his people out of the land of Egypt. So this night belongs to him, and it must be commemorated every year by all the Israelites, from generation to generation…” (Exodus 12:40-42 NLT).
“…I will rid you out of their bondage...” (Exodus 6:6-7 KJV). “…I will redeem you with a stretched out hand...” (Exodus 6:5:6-7 KJV). “…The Lord bought [Israel, his righteous children] out with a mighty hand and redeemed [them] out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of…Egypt. … (Deuteronomy 7:8 KJV).
God, the Holy Spirit, GIVES each one of his children the GIFT of righteousness. “…God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son (Jesus) “INTO” [mankind’s HEART]…” (Galatians 4:6 NASB). “… AS MANY as received him…” (John 1:12 KJV). “…receive the word implanted….” (James 1:21 NASB). “…[God, the Holy Spirit, through Jesus]...GAVE [them the indwelling]... POWER TO BECOME THE SONS (daughters) OF GOD, even to them that believe on his name (Jesus’ name)…” (John 1:12 KJV). “...his gift of righteousness ...through this one man, Jesus Christ...” (Romans 5:10-16 NLT). “…it is the blood [of Jesus] that maketh an atonement for the soul…” (Leviticus 17:11 KJV).
EVERYTHING, the God, the Holy Spirit, of FAIRNESS and JUSTICE did was to BENEFIT the well-being of mankind’s SOUL. He DONATED his only begotten son, he SHARED “all” his RICHES, he ENDOWED them with many GIFTS, he HELPED them when they needed him too, and even when THEY DON’T he remains FAITHFUL to his “covenant unity” commitment of loving, caring, and providing for them.
“…God is not human (he is not a body, the flesh, or a soul)…” (Numbers 23:19 NIV). “…“My thoughts are nothing like your [human]...thoughts,” says the Lord. “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine … my ways are higher [than human ways] … my thoughts higher [than human thoughts]…” (Isaiah 55:5-9 NLT).
“...[Mankind has often, mistakenly,]...thought that...[God, the Holy Spirit, was human like them]....” (Psalm 50:21 KJV). God SAYS: “… I AM HOLY…” (1 Peter 1:14-16 KJV). “…GOD IS SPIRIT…” (John 4:24 KJV). “…God is LOVE…” (1 John 4:4-8 KJV). HE IS GOD, THE HOLY SPIRIT of LOVE. “… “I AM WHO I AM …” (Exodus 3:14-15 NASB).
…everything [God, the Holy Spirit of LOVE]... does is right and all his ways are just....” (Daniel 4 NIV). “...all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he...” (Deuteronomy 32:4 NIV). “… “I AM WHO I AM …” (Exodus 3:14-15 NASB). “…I change NOT…” (Malachi 3:6 KJV).
The RELEVANCE of God, the Holy Spirit, being a God of FAIRNESS and JUSTICE is his EQUAL and EQUITABLE consideration for ALL of mankind and the well-being of EACH and EVERY one of their SOULS.
God, the Holy Spirit, through Jesus did not COME to merely CONDEMN mankind through his JUSTICE, but he CAME TO SAVE them instead. “...For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son...” (John 3:17-18 NIV).
“...This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. God didn’t go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again. Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person’s failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind Son of God when introduced to him...” (John 3:17-18 MSG).
God is a God of JUSTICE, which mean ALL DEBTS must be paid by GIVING each and every person the WAGES of either a righteous or unrighteous life that is JUSTLY, FAIRLY, and RIGHTLY OWED to them. God’s JUSTICE is “NOT” revenge or injustice, but it is FAIR and JUST. “...whatever a person sows, this he(she) will also reap. ..” (Galatians 6:7-8 NASB). “...For the one who sows to his (her) own flesh will reap destruction from the flesh...” (Galatians 6:7-8 NASB). “...You have plowed wickedness, you have harvested injustice...” (Hosea 10:13 NASB). “...they shall eat of the fruit of their own way, And be filled with their own schemes...” (Proverbs 1:31 NASB). “...One who sows injustice will reap disaster...” (Proverbs 22:8 NASB).
The WORD of GOD proclaims the LOVE and MERCY of God, the Holy Spirit, through Jesus, who offers, equally and equitably, to ALL of mankind, who CHOOSE to receive it, THE FREE GIFT of SALVATION!
God, the Holy Spirit, of JUSTICE sought, by sending Jesus Christ, to MAKE RIGHT the “covenant unity” relationship between HIMSELF and MANKIND.
When mankind FACES God’s WRATH, JUDGEMENT, or PUNISHMENT it WILL NOT be bias, unfair, or inequitable, but the ABSOLUTE and COMPLETE, fair and just payment OWED! “…everything [God, the Holy Spirit of LOVE]... does is right and all his ways are just....” (Daniel 4 NIV). “... A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he...” (Deuteronomy 32:4 NIV). “… “...I AM WHO I AM …” (Exodus 3:14-15 NASB). “…I change NOT…” (Malachi 3:6 KJV).
“... judgment and justice will be upheld…” (Job 36:16-21 NLT).
