TEXAS GOSPEL VOLUNTEER
God’s love and justice may seem at odds when it comes to human sin, but they are beautifully reconciled through Jesus Christ. Despite our transgressions against God’s laws, His deep love for us compelled Him to provide a way for salvation. This path, however, had to satisfy His perfect justice.
The solution came in an act of divine sacrifice. God Himself, in the person of Jesus, entered our world. Born of a virgin, Jesus was both fully divine and fully human. He lived a sinless life and then willingly bore the punishment for our sins on the cross. This supreme act of love fulfilled the demands of justice, as the penalty for sin was paid in full.
Through Christ’s sacrifice, God demonstrated His love while upholding His justice. As the apostle Paul writes in Romans 5:8, “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
Now, because of Jesus’ work, we can receive forgiveness and eternal life. God remains both loving and just, having provided a way for sinners to be reconciled to Him without compromising His righteous standards.
