Aren’t your ways unequal?When the righteous man turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and dies therein; in his iniquity that he has done he shall die.Again, when the wicked man turns away from his wickedness that he has committed, and does that which is lawful and right, he will save his soul alive.Because he considers, and turns away from all his transgressions that he has committed, he shall surely live. He shall not die.Yet the house of Israel says,‘ The way of the Lord is not fair.’ House of Israel, aren’t my ways fair? Aren’t your ways unfair?

For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self- control.

There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.
