Possibly God could have arranged
some other way OF dealing with sin
and sinners which would not have re-

was adopted by our great Creator
assures US that no other method
would have been so wise, so just. so

for the satisfaction OF Divine Justice
as respects all of the condemned
human race who desire to return to
His favor.
