God's justice and mercy are affirmed throughout Scripture, where He promises to meet us based on our sincere approach to Him.
In the Bible, God's justice and mercy are foundational attributes. In 2 Samuel 22:26-28, it is evident that God shows mercy to the merciful and justice to the proud. This portrays a God who is not capricious but fair and consistent in His dealings. Additionally, God's character is revealed through Jesus Christ, who exemplified God's desire to save rather than condemn. In John 3:17, it is stated that Christ did not come to condemn the world but to save it. This assurance that God will respond in mercy to those who seek Him sincerely is vital for strengthening our faith in His character.
