Justice serves mercy

A psychoanalyst once explained to me that “the negative moment [in therapy] is in the service of the positive moment.” This conviction underlies a great deal of what appears in these pages concerning the justice and mercy of God. God’s justice is always in the service of his mercy.—Fleming Rutledge, The Crucifixion, 154 n. 18
