David Gregory Quotes
So Allah Has To Deny Perfect Justice In Order To Be Merciful. There's No Penalty For Wrongdoing If You Have Done Enough Good Things To Offset It. But True Justice Doesn't Work That Way, Not Even On Earth. If Someone Is Convicted Of Fraud, The Judge Doesn't Say, 'Well, He Was A Kind Little League Coach. That Offsets It.' In Islam, Allah Is Not Perfectly Just, Because If He Were, People Would Have To Pay The Penalty For Every Sin, And No One Would Get Into Paradise. That's What Perfect Justice Is." I Pushed The Vegetables Around On My Neglected Plate. "But I Thought God Is Forgiving. You're Implying That Because Of Justice, God Can't Forgive." "God Is Forgiving. God Wants To Forgive People More Than Anything In The World, To Restore Them To Himself. What I'm Saying Is That God's Desire To Forgive Doesn't Negate His Perfect Justice. Someone Has To Pay The Penalty For Sins. God's Justice Demands It.
