God did not give the law because people were righteous. He gave it because injustice was rising unchecked.

God cares about people more than we think. God showed up for Abel when he was killed unjustly. He responded to injustice by flooding the Earth. He also destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah because of their injustice.

God cares for every single human being, regardless of tribe or status. He cares that you advocate for those who cannot do so for themselves. In the city of God, he disallows injustice. And if you are the city of God, you ought not to act unjustly.

We are to love God and love people just as much.

We learn much more about the just nature of God in this sermon, and how we are to respond to injustice while on Earth.
