Justice is served... and injustice... is given
Today on the Daily Nugget, Mike looks at 2 Samuel 17–18 and the sobering reality of God's justice through the death of Absalom. Absalom ultimately received the justice his rebellion deserved, reminding us that God does not overlook sin. Yet his death also points us toward Jesus, whose death was very different: rather than receiving the justice He deserved, Jesus willingly took the justice we deserved upon Himself, satisfying God's righteous demands at the cross. Absalom reminds us that justice is certain, but Jesus reminds us that through Him, justice and mercy meet, offering us the forgiveness we could never earn.
