We need a God who makes moral judgments. if He loves everyone in exactly the same way, what does His love really mean, and what does it mean to be loved by God? Our universe would  make no sense and the pain of injustice would be even greater if we did not have a God who recognizes right from wrong and judges the wicked. Be glad, though: Just as we love justice, so does God.

Visiting preacher
We had a visiting preacher yesterday. The Rev Roger Fay from Zion Evangelical Baptist Church in Ripon, North Yorkshire. He preached in English and I translated it into French. His sermon, on Luke 23:39-43 is well worth listening to and is both in English and French so everyone can benefit. You can listen to it here.

It had been sitting on my reading pile for a few years and I read it at last Saturday evening.
