The Innocent are Condemned Wis. 2:12-22

In our legal system we believe that the innocent are set free and the guilty are condemned.

And yet Jesus was innocent but condemned to death.

Do not be surprised therefore that the innocent are tested, treated unfairly and condemned.

For this is the way of the world and godless.

At those times

Turn the other cheek;

Remain silent;

Into God’s hands entrust your spirit.

For God is the final Judge Who will set things straight

And will vindicate the Innocent and condemn the guilty.
