For those who say that Isa satisfying all of the requirements of the laws in our behalf make it too easy for us break the law, there is an answer. True appreciation of our Messiah’s great love for us becomes a positive force in our lives. This powerful force combined with his Spirit living in us; compel us to desire to live lives that please him.

JUSTICE AND MERCY

ALLAH as judge
Does command
Truth and justice
In His Land.

Love of neighbor
He does require
For hate produces
An evil mire.

But He is merciful
To forgive
So with Him
We'll forever live.

When no penalty
For sin is paid
No just foundation
Has been laid.

Yes, justice
Does demand
That before our judge
We all must stand.

If eternal prison
Is where we go
ALLAH'S mercy
We'll never know.

Through rising from death
His new life is ours
His Victory over
all evil powers.

From his tomb
He did arise
Cleansed women and men
His eternal prize.

Is there a way
For us to be
From each sin
Forever free?

That ALLAH be just
Yet there be
Loving forgiveness
Tender Mercy.

Only one man
Has walked this land
With no guilt
For which to stand.

A man of love
Though very strong
Against those
Treating others wrong.

Because from sin
He was free
Our mighty sacrifice
He could be

Mercy and justice
On his cross meet
When our hearts bow
At his wounded feet.

When for us
Our way seems long
His word and spirit
In us are strong.

To walk with him
Is now our goal
For His great love
Feeds our soul.

His glorious return
We now await
Embracing love
Rejecting hate.
