So we all agree that God will punish sins, God will punish the wicked, and God will justify the ones in Christ.
We still differ about what Justice means insofar as the law as a master over God.
My view:
The law reflects God's nature. It is perfect. But it is not the only manifestation of God's righteousness.
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!
IF God makes us a new creation and the "old man" is gone (completely at Judgment as we have been conformed into the image of Christ) THEN there is no condemnation under the law.
God is just, under the law, but the requirements of the law are met apart from the law.
