Resource on God's Justice

[py3ak]

I am looking for a sermonic treatment of God's justice comparable to Preston on greatness or Charnock on goodness. Does such a thing exist? (I'm aware of Owen.)

 

[RamistThomist]

I know Owen rebutted Rutherford on this point, though I don't know the specifics.

 

[Ask Mr. Religion]

Not so much a sermon, but Muller's treatment is worthwhile.

Here are a couple of searches run against my Logos library (Platinum + Reformed libraries) that may give you some pointers.

If the desire is for a sermon because of its practical treatment and uses, perhaps the section on God's Justice in Thomas Watson's Body of Divinity will be helpful.

Thank you, gentlemen. I'll begin with Manton and Watson since they are easy to access.
