April 6 | Daily Devotion | If God Is So Good, Why Can't He Forgive Everybody? | Zac Poonen
Summary
The speaker addresses the question of why God cannot forgive everyone, explaining that divine justice requires accountability, much like a teacher cannot give full marks to a student who did not study. He emphasizes that God's perfect love is demonstrated through the principle of substitution, using the example of Jesus taking the punishment for our sins on the cross. The central message is that our salvation and clean lives are due to Jesus' sacrifice, and we must live thankfully by not dirtying the 'clean shirt' of his atonement.

Zac Poonen · Apr 5, 2026
Zac Poonen explains to children why God cannot simply forgive everyone without justice, using the analogy of a teacher grading two students with different results. He then illustrates God's justice and love through the concept of substitution—Jesus taking our punishment on the cross—using relatable stories about family members and twin brothers taking one another's place to help children understand Christ's sacrifice and the call to live a clean life in response to that grace.
