God’s judgment on evil and sin is right and just and good. Evil deserves to be punished and it’ll be eliminated completely in eternity. Pastor Tom will explain today how sin has to be punished for a holy God to be around sinful people. As the greatest act of mercy, God sent Jesus to the cross to take the deserved judgment for sin in order to extend mercy to all who would believe in Him. The cross is where the justice of God was satisfied and the mercy of God triumphed. Mercy is victorious.
