True justice does not prefer one person’s right over another person’s right; rather, it makes sure that both sides are treated with love and dignity. It therefore, helps both the oppressors and the oppressed, and does not fight or condemn the oppressors. Since everything we have is God’s, and we are all God’s children, we have to share everything we have with others. True justice therefore, helps the needy generously; helps friends and foes alike; does not ask back what has been borrowed; loves one’s enemies and prays for their happiness; gives without expecting anything in return; forgives others unceasingly; and keeps one’s good deeds secret (Matthew 5:38-42, Luke 6:27-38). True justice is merciful because mercy (which comes from God) is above all laws (James 2:13) and God demands mercy (Matt. 9:13). True justice therefore is never revengeful.

surrendersacrifice:
God stayed faithful to His promise although we were unfaithful to Him, betrayed Him and killed Him. He expressed it by accepting death in order to compensate for our sins. Furthermore, He commands us to love one another in a similar manner (Jn 13:34).

Rom 12:19  Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

Heb. 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
