1958 Divine justice – Mercy....

June 18, 1941: Book 28

Divine justice is very often questioned by people , because God allows things to happen on earth, what is an obvious injustice. And it still must not be waver in the belief of God’s justice, although therefore the man doesn’t find the right explanation. What God is doing or lets happen corresponds always to its purpose. What He Himself is doing, is mindful very wise, and the man can not really fathom, why everything has to come so, as it comes. However, what people do, is also allowed by God, if it is not good and noble, not to curtail the free will of man. And the latter is reason to doubt the justice of God.... The will of man is determinative for his actions, and God allows this will great freedom. Well, now the man can begin or do a lot of, what is wrong before God. But would God punish any injustice, when it will be done for the sake of divine justice, so soon only good actions would be recorded on earth, but also the man as such would not be free, that’s to say, he could and would not act according to his urges, but only the fear of punishment would decide any action. And yet God can not be denied justice, because every action finds its expiation or its reward, just mostly in a different way, than it pleases the people. Because it connects a wise purpose with any action or utterance of God. Even where God punishes, He lets be this punishment an educational aid for the misguided people. And God is infinitely merciful and patient.... He will delay again and again, to give people the possibility to redress the injustice on their own or at least to recognize it as wrong. Because if man repents his way of behaving or he himself has the will to act and to think otherwise than previously, God is ready to forgive him. But the recognition, that he has done wrong, must have become alive in the heart, so that this influences his future thinking and acting favourably, then God’s mercy will be sure to him.... So mercy of God takes the place of justice.... but this never turns off God’s justice. The man should recognize his injustice and search to ennoble himself, because this is the purpose of life on earth. But he has to answer for any action, because God is righteous, but also wise, and He will never intervene early in the course of development of man on earth for the sake of justice, which however never excludes, that man will be judged by law and justice one day....

Amen
