In Lord’s Day 4 of the Heidelberg Catechism, we face one of the hardest questions in all of Christendom: Is God unjust to demand what we cannot do?

This episode walks us straight into the courtroom of heaven, where God’s justice is revealed as holy, necessary, and good — and where His mercy shines brighter than we ever imagined.

 We explore why sin against God’s supreme majesty requires a supreme penalty, and why the gospel is not that God ignores justice, but that He satisfies it in His Son.

At the cross, justice and mercy meet. The debt we could never pay is paid in full. And because of Christ, we no longer stand as defendants — but as beloved children, welcomed home.

This is the freedom of the gospel.
