RIGHTEOUSNESS and JUSTICE are the foundation of your throne;
LOVE and FAITHFULNESS go before you. - Psalm 89:14 NIV
There is no other place where we see God's righteousness, justice, love and faithfulness revealed in all of its glory and majesty but on the cross.
HIS JUSTICE
It is on the cross that we see God's perfect justice in action.
"For the wages (penalty) of sin is death."
- Romans 6:23
On the cross, SIN was dealt with, judged and sentenced. All of our sins were laid on JESUS. And Jesus paid for our sins through his death.
HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS
On the cross, we see God's righteousness revealed. He did not spare His Son, but gave Him up for us on the cross.
- Romans 8:32
HIS LOVE
On the cross, we see His love for us revealed...
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
- Romans 5:8 NIV
HIS FAITHFULNESS
On the cross, we see His faithfulness - His promise to redeem us fulfilled.

That is who our God is!
None can question His Justice.
None can rival His Righteousness.
None can surpass His Love.
None can compare to His Faithfulness.
What a mighty God we serve!
His Name is exalted above the heavens!
