God himself is just
And God is perfect and consistent in all his attributes
In order to pardon the wicked
The justice of God must first be satisfied
And the wrath of God appeased
Something must -And this is a very important word
You can look it up in the dictionary
Someone must interpose
Someone must intervene
Someone must do something
And being there's only two parties
One being God, and the other man
We put no hope in man
God himself must intervene to satisfy his justice
Appease his wrath
And make it possible to express his love and salvation toward wicked men
