“... a justice which sees evil and does not punish it, is not justice. But since God is Infinite Love, He might pardon man and forget the injury; but pardon without compensation would eclipse the Justice which is the nature of God. Without setting any limits to the Mercy of God, I could understand His forgiveness better if His mercy were preceded by a satisfaction for sin; for one can never be merciful unless he is just. Mercy is the overflow of justice.” ~ Still A Venerable Servant of God, Fulton J. Sheen: Address delivered on March 30, 1930.
