God’s Justice

The other day I read an article about how people in the church have taken up the mantle of justice and then found themselves on the outside of church tradition. Being someone who sees pursuing justice as the way to live out the gospel and someone who has not had a huge welcoming committee by the big C church as I do this, articles like this interest me. Truth be told, I don’t believe being a Jesus Follower marked by justice has much of anything to do with being a part of church tradition. However, there are things that mark God’s justice that are different than the world’s version of justice, or religion’s idea about justice.
