Given that the term social justice was introduced during the turbulent half of the 20^th century it is still basically new. From a biblical perspective the idea of justice originated with God. In fact, it’s in His DNA so to say. He is a God of Justice.

The scriptures are full of examples of God raising up a leader to confront injustices. Moses was sent by God to tell the Pharaoh the King of Egypt to let the Israelites go. Psalm 82:6 “Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and oppressed.”

Jesus as well boldly proclaimed the importance of Justice in Matthew 23:23 and Luke 11:42.

Following Christ’s example this page of my blog is dedicated to social justice news and articles inspired by the Holy Spirit.
