"What better thing does Christ do than give us grace? And what better thing can we do as Christians—little Christs—then to show grace to the lovely children, the little Christs, that enter our lives? The Old Testament “eye for an eye” justice code simply does not fit the grace-code implemented by the Father through Jesus Christ? At least that’s the way it seems to me now. I wish I heard and saw grace given out by the people of my community. Perhaps it’s happening and I don’t see it. Whatever the case, when I spot it in a work of fiction and am always moved by it. What might it be like to see it in real life?

The New Testament acknowledges that the law of God is Holy (Romans 7:12), not obsolete. And grace and mercy are equal parts with consequence in justice.
