Consequently, at the cross, perfect justice and perfect mercy met.
God set Adam up. For him to then condemn the whole human species for the so-called sin of a man who had no concept of good and evil is injustice.
It's not mercy to forgive people who should never have been condemned in the first place.
To believe that this is justice is to believe that might makes right with god. To believe god had a great plan in sacrificing Jesus, you have to believe that the end justifies the means.
You've been misinformed by a very poor teacher.
