JUST AND JUSTIFIER


"Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in His blood, to declare His righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; to declare, I say, at this time His righteousness: that He might be just, and the Justifier of him which believeth in Jesus." -Romans 3:24-26 [KJV]


God’s infinite holiness can accept nothing less than perfection, and His inflexible justice is sworn to punish every sin and violation of His holy law. Therefore, if His love is dedicated to deliver a single soul, it must be in a manner that does no dishonor to His holiness and justice. This can ONLY be accomplished if there is One who is equal to God’s infinite holiness and justice and capable of dying the death that the sins of those deserve whom God loves. God alone can satisfy His justice, but He cannot die. Man can die, but he cannot satisfy God’s justice. THE GOD-MAN, the LORD JESUS CHRIST ALONE, IS EQUAL TO BOTH TASKS!
