Certainly not! If that were so, how could God judge the world? The reductio ad absurdum: If human sin vindicates God and thus human unrighteousness is good, how could God coherently judge? God's judgment of the world requires that sin be genuinely wrong and punishable. God cannot be both the endorser of sin and the judge of sin. The latter must be true.
