Hi Abigail, (((( Smiles ))))
Of course! Dare we say it would not be fair for Him to chasten me."
God is always fair He is a fair and a Just Judge by His standards not human standards. It is not unbibical to say He is a Just Fair Judge. And if we all got what we deserved we would all be thrown into hell. But Yeshua paid the penalty for sin which is death and as He died on the cross.
But did He really pay it fully for us "if" the penalty for sin is burning billions and billions of years on the cross and not death so...
Either he paid it in "full" for us or it is not fully paid.
So which is it?
As..
on that cross Jesus was carrying the weight of every single SIN that we humans have and will commit.
The threads I post do have points to them not all subjects have been totally covered and even if so...
the Bible is a very big book and Bible commentaries are a very big subject there is room for many types of post here of course.
Not everyone is always going to see eye to eye on every subject in the Scriptures that is why we find so many commentaries on the Bible even by many different Churchs and Pastors.
But saying God is fair I see more as a compliment not as a bad thing as described "of course" in the manner you posted as in God's eyes.
What I see as God's description of fairness and yes...
maybe I need to define that much better as Jesus will insist upon Just treatment for the wicked and in looking up the word Just one will see the word fair described with just in the dictionary.
Why is He Just? it is because the degree of punishment will be fair and according to their works.
He promised that and there is Scripture to back that up with.
That is why I believe he is a Fair Just Judge.
Glad to clarify Thank You!
