What is the significance of God's justice in relation to grace?

Answered in 1 source

God's justice is essential for understanding grace, as grace operates within the framework of divine justice satisfied through Christ.

The significance of God's justice in relation to grace lies in the fact that grace is not a license to overlook sin but is grounded in the satisfaction of God’s justice. As preached in the sermon, God's grace reigns through righteousness (Romans 5:21), emphasizing that God's love and mercy are expressed in accordance with His holy justice. Christ's atoning sacrifice fulfills justice, enabling God to extend grace to His elect without compromising His holiness. This understanding deepens the appreciation for grace, as it reveals both God's justice and His willingness to save the undeserving through Christ, the perfect Savior.
