Psalms 145:17. The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.
This is a thing for which many modern divines do not praise God. The attribute of righteousness in the character of God is expelled from a good deal of modern theology. But he, who loves God aright, loves the righteousness of God. I would not care to have even salvation if it were unrighteous salvation. The righteousness of God gleams like a sharp two-edged sword, and it is terrible to those who are at enmity against him; but the true children of the Most High delight to see this sword of state carried in the front of the great King of kings. The seraphim cried, one to another, "Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts." The redeemed in glory sing, "Just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints; but the captious critics of the present day care nothing for these attributes of Jehovah.
