God is indeed a God of mercy and justice. He demonstrated His mercy and justice when he allowed Jesus, His only begotten Son, to leave His perfect home in heaven for the purpose of becoming man's redeemer. Jesus died a death on the cross that he did not deserve. He was treated like a criminal, beaten, and crucified because of God's mercy. The purpose of this sermon is to help us understand how we can receive God’s mercy and justice if we desire to live in the heavenly home when we stand before Him at His judgement seat.
