Mercy & the Law

We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works,
which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
Ephesians 2:10

"This act of mercy on the part of God is eminently just,
because in the first place
--the sin is against God,
--and He has a right to pass by offenses against Him.

Further, it is just,
--because He gives His own life as an atonement for the sin,
--so that the majesty of the law is not only maintained,
--but is magnified.

God is just and the justifier of him who believes in Jesus.
All righteousness is from Him alone."
E.J.Waggoner
