I still think you are missing the point that the bible disagrees with your take on this. As I said Justice is integral to God's existence, it's who He is. Therefore justice must not only be seen, but must in fact be executed.

but rather that He is compassionate towards the sinner...

There are so many examples of this in the gospels...Mary Magdalen," Let those without sin cast the first stone"... Judas," One among you will betray me"... Peter, " Before the cock crows you will have denied me three times"...the two thieves on the cross, "You will be with Me today in Paradise"...and the Roman centurions "Father forgive them for they know not what they do"... all showing kindness and compassion, not anger and revenge. This is the Benevolent God!

"It is the weak who are cruel. Gentleness can only be expected from the strong"...Leo Rosten
