We must exercise caution in desiring the absence of justice in order to maintain peace. If God did not pass judgment on evil, He would not fulfill His role as a redemptive deity. Where do the origins of the world's problems lie? Does the Devil actively contribute to challenges faced by all individuals? Are problems solely a result of poor personal choices? If God has established hell, it must serve a necessary purpose as the ultimate destination for certain individuals. Should these individuals end up in hell, is it solely God's fault? If God chose to forgive all mankind, why would He create hell? If it is indeed God's fault for their damnation, then He is gravely misguided. However, if these individuals truly deserve their fate, God bears the responsibility of judging them.If salvation is excluded from the equation, it becomes apparent that God possesses intentions that may be deemed malevolent, as He judges certain individuals. One must question the necessity of passing judgement on individuals whose actions are merely part of a checklist that, when violated, leads to God's judgement. Is God solely concerned with the enforcement of His laws? What purpose do these laws serve if they are not interconnected with the establishment of healthy relationships? It is evident that God did not create these laws merely for display, but rather as a means of safeguarding relationships. How can God effectively demonstrate His faithfulness, kindness, love, and justice if His communication is limited to mere words? The essence of God's proof lies in ensuring that it is conveyed in a manner that is wholly just and truthful. However, if God solely relies on verbal communication, how does He address the various injustices that He witnesses? Does He solely make promises or does He supplement them with tangible actions? This is precisely why salvation, or deliverance, necessitates an additional form of communication. In order to demonstrate His faithfulness and benevolence, God is compelled to intervene and rescue those He has affirmed His faithfulness to. Does God solely rescue His own from adverse circumstances or from the influence of wicked individuals? Once again, God's commandments serve as the foundation for His interaction with us and our interactions with one another.
