God used the prophets to speak against injustices. With their words, they would level enemies and Israelites alike for their transgressions. This is one big reason why they were often so unpopular.

God sits in His heavens and observes every act of man, then records it. That’s why its critical for all to be absolved of their transgressions through the process God clarified through the Law … that of offering sacrifices for sin and making just restitution.

Praise the Lord, Christ’s blood was shed that all who look upon Him and confess their sin will be forgiven. At that point, God erases the record from His books and we are free to live with a clear conscience.
