85:10 God’s Loving Embrace Love cannot exist without truth, and peace cannot last without righteousness. These qualities are united in Christ. He bore the full weight of divine wrath against sin and paid the price on behalf of those who believe in him (2 Cor 5:21). His sacrifice made it possible for God to show peace and love to sinners and yet remain righteous and true (Rom 3:26). As a result, we now can rest in God’s loving embrace forever.
