Before His Face

Psalms 89:14 KJV
Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.
Our God is an awesome mixture of justice and mercy; judgment and truth.

God dwells on a throne of justice and judgment. He can no more be unjust than He can be un-God. God can no more prevent judgment than He can refuse to be God. Key to His character as God is that He is both justice and judgment.

However, standing before Him in mercy is the Lord Jesus Christ. The person of Christ intermediates between God and man so that whenever God views man, He sees Jesus Christ, the way, the truth and the life.
