If
you want to know the judgement of God on sinners – on all who, from time to
time, fail to trust in God's goodness towards them – we find it on the lips of
the human god Jesus on the cross: ‘Father, forgive them; they do not know what
they do.’
This
is both the true cry of humanity, in response to our common condition, and the
true declaration of God, in response to our common condition.
All
contrary utterances (‘Father, punish’) speak falsely, of both human nature and
divine nature.
