The Lord looked at humanity in its pitiful state of sin and was moved by love. However, this love prompted Him to send His Son to die for the sins of the world. We might suppose God could have taken the record of sin collected since the beginning of time and simply erased it and pretended it never happened. He could have removed righteousness as a requirement to be saved from our sin. But to simply erase sin would deny justice. God is a judge. The law had been broken. Justice

The Word of God is alive and active, cutting deep into our hearts to reveal and heal what’s hidden. Like a skilled surgeon’s scalpel, Scripture removes the sin that harms us, bringing transformation and wholeness through God’s love.
