Lesson 6 Review: God’s Love of Justice

 

Lesson 6 God’s Love of Justice

Introduction

Memory Text: “ ‘But let him who glories glory in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the Lord, exercising lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth. For in these I delight says the Lord” (Jer. 9:24, NKJV).

Yahweh is perfectly good and His character changeless. Yahweh is deeply concerned about evil, suffering, injustice, and oppression, He constantly and unequivocally condemns them and will one day eradicate them all.

What are the foundation of God’s government?

Righteousness and justice are the foundation of God’s government.

What does God expect from us?

“He has shown you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?” (Micah 6:8, NKJV).

What does Monday’s lesson teach about God?

God is entirely holy, faithful, righteous, and just. He always does what is right. He knows what is best and always wants what is best for everyone.

What does Tuesday’s lesson teach us about God?

Tuesday’s lesson teaches us that God never changes. God can go on back-and-forth relationships with His creation, but through all such back-and-forth relationships, and through everything else, God’s character is constant. God cannot deny Himself, God never lies; and God’s promises are unbreakable.

Does God repent, and how does He repent?

God repents in the sense that He changes the course of action in response to human repentance, precisely because His character is good, righteous, loving, and merciful. God does not repent in the way that humans do.

What does Matthew 5:43-48 teach about God’s love?

God’s love is perfect; it extends even to those who position themselves as God’s enemies. Though God’s love and mercy far exceed any reasonable expectation, it never overrides or contravenes justice.

In Conclusion,

God loves justice and He loves mercy and He requires this from us. May God help us to do justly, to love mercy and walk humbly with Him, in Jesus’ name.
