The justice of God is not something Christians need to fear in Christ. It is a truth that anchors our hope, deepens our worship, and reminds us that evil will not ultimately win. Because Christ has satisfied divine justice at the cross, believers can rest in God’s mercy and trust Him to make all things right in His time.For more episodes of Equipping You in Grace, visit Servants of Grace.You can also watch more episodes on the Equipping You in Grace YouTube playlist.
