God's moral purity

Some have contended that there is tension between God's moral purity and His love. How would you respond to such a charge?

There is no tention between

There is no tention between GOD's Love and HIS Justice (HIS Moral Purity is full in both of these) . . . no tention in HIMSELF, in the Trinity . . . but perhaps very much in us.

GOD's Love fulfills HIS Justice in CHRIST's Death and Resurrection.

In CHRIST, Justice and Peace have 'Kissed'.

Psalm 84 (in the Douay) . . .

"11 Mercy and truth have met each other: justice and peace have kissed.

12 Truth is sprung out of the earth: and justice hath looked down from heaven.

13 For the Lord will give goodness: and our earth shall yield her fruit.

14 Justice shall walk before him: and shall set his steps in the way."

Some interpretations say . . . 'Salvation walks in HIS Footsteps'.

GOD Bless us all.
