What does the Bible say about God's justice in salvation?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that God is perfectly just in justifying sinners, with no unrighteousness found in Him (Romans 9:14).

God's justice is foundational to understanding salvation. Romans 9:14 poses the question 'Is there unrighteousness with God?' The emphatic answer is 'God forbid!' This underscores that God's character is perfectly just. Salvation is not based on human merit but on God's sovereign choice to save sinners. In Christ, God justly acquits His people, demonstrating that His actions are entirely righteous, even when they appear contradictory when we consider our sinful nature compared to His holiness.
