The Confronting Injustice Without Compromising Truth

<p><strong>God does not suggest he commands that we do justice.</strong></p><p>Social justice is not optional for the Christian. All injustice affects others so talking about justice that isn't social is like talking about water that isn't wet or a square with no right angles. But the Bible's call to seek justice is not a call to superficial kneejerk activism. We are not merely commanded to execute justice but to truly execute justice. The God who commands us to seek justice is the same God who commands us to test everything and hold fast to what is good.</p><p>Drawing from a diverse range of theologians sociologists artists and activists <em>Confronting Injustice without Compromising Truth</em> by Thaddeus Williams makes the case that we must be discerning if we are to truly execute justice as Scripture commands. Not everything called social justice today is compatible with a biblical vision of a better world.
