How can a finite sin or merit deserve infinite punishment or reward?
[/ QUOTE ]
Great question. The finite sin was committed against an infinitly righteous God therefore deserving infinite punishment.
As to the merit side. Our merit is not what warrants infinite reward. It is the infinite merit/righteousness of the son of God that we receive at the moment of our conversion by grace through faith in Jesus Christ that gives us the inheritance of eternal life.
