Subject: Is God fair?

Bible Note: I'm not trying to imply that God isn't fair in a detrimental sense, but what I mean is that in some ways, God ISN'T fair, as far as worldly examples are concerned (immediate retribution is what I mean). God is INCREDIBLY fair, but it's a fairness that, unfortunately, most of this world (and some of ourselves included) doesn't understand. Hence, you have some like Jehovah's witnesses among others who automatically deem God "unfair" because "if there was a God, why is there suffering in the world?" Jesus' perfect example of suffering and sacrifice for God's word are a model that we all should try to live by.

I was using the word "unfair" as a spin, as a higher meaning, if you will, stating that God's fairness is WAY beyond what the world would consider fair. In that case, it would be UNfair, for it's not what the world would consider fair. Our earthly vessels restrict us from truly understanding and fathoming God's grace, mercy, love, and fairness, and not seeking a personal relationship with Him just feeds the ignorance.

I'm just thankful that we serve an awesome and mighty God who's power, grace, love and mercy are at the least, stunning, and in the middle, overwhelming.
