“For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister” (Hebrews 6:10).
God is righteous/just (Deuteronomy 32:4; Ezra 9:15; Psalms 7:9, 116:5; Daniel 9:14). Because He is righteous, His wrath against all human ungodliness and unrighteousness is revealed from heaven (Romans 1:18). Because of His righteousness, His eternally purposed plan of salvation through Christ is the only possible and acceptable way to remedy sin. There is no way of reconciliation to God, except by Jesus (John 14:6).
God’s righteousness is immutable. It does not wax and wane like the moon. He is no more or less righteous today than He was yesterday or will be tomorrow.
God’s righteousness is impartial. He is no respecter of persons. Anyone who transgresses His will is guilty.
God’s righteousness is inescapable. Because He is omniscient, omnipresent, and eternal, there is no creature in heaven or on earth who can violate His righteous will and escape the just punishment of their wickedness.
“God is not unjust” is a timeless and sobering truth.
