Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne. (Ps. 89:14 NKJ)
Does God subvert judgment? Or does the Almighty pervert justice? (Job 8:3 NKJ)
Now if God designates one consequence of sin for one sinner, and a completely different consequence of the exact same sin for a different sinner, he has created an inequity of justice that is often condemned in Scripture:
Diverse weights and diverse measures, They are both alike, an abomination to the LORD. (Prov. 20:10 NKJ)
13 "You shall not have in your bag differing weights, a heavy and a light.
14 "You shall not have in your house differing measures, a large and a small.
15 "You shall have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure, that your days may be lengthened in the land which the LORD your God is giving you.
16 "For all who do such things, all who behave unrighteously, are an abomination to the LORD your God. (Deut. 25:13-16 NKJ)
Now God is not a hypocrite: if he cares about unequal weights in such small matters as day to day transactions, how much more unequal punishments for far more serious sins against a holy God?
A heavy weight for sinners but a light weight for Christ?
A large weight for sinners but a small weight for Christ?
A second death for sinners but only a first death for Christ?
Wrath for every sinner but absolutely no wrath for Christ?
Denying PSA violates God's fundamental attribute of Justice.
There is a reason even humans in their sense of legality have a saying that "justice is blind" and show equal weights:
