Bible Discuss - CHRISTIAN VIEW ON SOCIAL JUSTICE with Pastor Eddie JjumbaPastor Eddie Jjumba (Senior Pastor at Dominion Church International Toronto, Canada)“Give justice to the weak and the fatherless; maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute,” (Psalm 82:3). “Learn to do good; seek justice, correct oppression; bring justice to the fatherless, and please the widow’s cause,” (Isaiah 1:17).Justice had primarily to do with conduct in relation to others, especially with regard to the rights of others. It is applied to business, where just weights and measures are demanded (Lev 19:35, Lev 19:36; Deu 25:13-16; Amo 8:5; Pro 11:1; Pro 16:11; Eze 45:9, Eze 45:10). It is demanded in courts, where the rights of rich and poor, Israelite and sojourner, are equally to be regarded. Neither station nor bribe nor popular clamour shall influence judge or witness. “Justice, justice shalt thou follow” (Deu 16:20 m; compare Deu 16:18-20; Exo 23:1-3, Exo 23:6-9). In general, this justice is contrasted with that wickedness which “feared not God and regarded not man” (Luk 18:2). In a larger sense justice is not only giving to others their rights but involves the active duty of establishing their rights. – Logos Bible Support the show
