What does it mean to be fair? I teach my students three different types of fairness. The first is when the winner gets the trophy. The second is when everything is equal, such as when we tell them to bring in a Valentine for each of their classmates. The third is we all get what we need, equal or not. The low kids get more help.
God's view of fair doesn't always match ours. We can't understand his sense of fair, because we are limited to only human understanding.
