For a start, Who says God is fair?
In the Bible,
God is righteous,
God is perfect,
God is good,
God is able
But did not say God is fair.
I mean, If God is fair, should Jesus who knew no sin, go about
doing good deeds, healing the sicks, suffered those many toture and
died on the cross (one of the worst, if not the worst form of
dealth penalty at that time)?
If the daddy prepares the food, called out to his children to come
and eat, if the children decided not to and feels hungry, cna
he/she blame the father for it?
The same, God loves us and want to give us good things, things that
are good for us, may not be what we want, but nevertheless good
things. If we refused to accept them, can we blame God? (ok, at
least the person who blame God beleived He exist, don't think
anyone can blame someone he don't believed to exist, right?)
Having said all these, here is what God is, God loves us, but God
is righteous and perfect, we had all fallen and therefore by
ourselves cannot approach God.
That's why He had to paid for our debts of sins, Jesus at the cross
fully and completely satisfied the requirement demanded by a
righteous and perfect God in the area of sins, that now we can have
full confidence and assurance that after we, being purified by the
blood of Christ, can approached the loving Father God. And God can
now righteously declared, their sins and lawless deeds I remember
no more.
God had paid the penalty of our sins, he had freely given us the
gift of salvation, do you want to receive it? I had, you need to
make your choice.
Hebrew 10:10-23
10And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of
the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
11And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly
the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.
12But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for
sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,
13then to wait until his enemies should be made a stool for his
feet.
14For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who
are sanctified.
15And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after
saying,
16"This is the covenant that I will make with them after those
days, says the Lord: I will put my laws on their hearts, and write
them on their minds,"
17then he adds, "I will remember their sins and their misdeeds no
more."
18Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any
offering for sin.19Therefore, brethren, since we have confidence to
enter the sanctuary by the blood of Jesus,
20by the new and living way which he opened for us through the
curtain, that is, through his flesh,
21and since we have a great priest over the house of God,
22let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith,
with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our
bodies washed with pure water.
23Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for
he who promised is faithful;Since our confidence is in Christ (and
not in goats and calves), let us now draw near to God with a true
heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean
from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure
water
