Is His love and mercy limitless to All? Is His forgiveness universal? I would never eternally punish my son no matter what he did, How much more God must love His children? I believe God is ALL merciful and ALL patient with His children. Perhaps he allows us many chances, and many lives to figure things out. Like this is a school and one day we graduate.

Being Just and being merciful at the same time is an oxymoron.

Well, yes. But you have to accept it. As long as you reject it, you have buil;t a mental dam that blocks the flow of Divine Love. But when you open the dam, Divine Love flows like a river.

Being Just and being merciful at the same time is an oxymoron.

I can see how you'd say that, but it isn't really. As Browning reminds us, "All is Love, yet All's Law."

"It is the FAther's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom," but the way Divine Law works is that you only get what you can accept. So if you are only open to a little of God's abundance, prosperity, and the blessings of the Kingdom, then a little is all you will get. But if you oipen up to much more, you'll get much more.

Divine Law produces for you exactly what you expect it to produce for you at the deepest level. If it is not producing what you want, then you need to open up your thinking, allowing it to produce the new condition that you desire.
