Uncovering the Truth: Righteousness Is Grace, Not Justice
The verse of the day comes from Psalm 112. Verse 4 says that the righteous are gracious. Being righteous is not getting justice.
Justice is administering the law equally to all people. Grace is forgiving. If righteous is gracious and if gracious is forgiving, then righteous cannot be getting justice because forgivingness is not administering the law. Romans 8:3 says that the law was overcome by the gracious death of Jesus.
God never wanted us to get justice because He promised that justice and vengeance is His (Romans 12:19). God only does not want us to discriminate (James 2:9) when we apply His laws of love (Matthew 22:39).
