How do we know God is just despite human suffering?

Answered in 1 source

The justice of God is affirmed in Scripture, showing that He holds all accountable and works righteously in all His dealings.

In the dialogues of Job, Elihu affirms that it is inconceivable for God to do wickedness or injustice (Job 34:10). This underscores the Reformed conviction that God’s character is inherently just, and while human suffering may seem arbitrary, it is within the bounds of His holy and righteous justice. The book of Job illustrates that God uses suffering for purposes beyond our understanding, often to teach and correct His people. This sovereign justice is ultimately aimed at demonstrating His mercy and grace through repentance and restoration.
