How do we engage with God's plan to deal with injustice?
God wants his people to adress the injustices around them. Easy to say, but what do we do? Where do we start? The issue seems so huge, and we seem so powerless - what can we do?
In this next chapter in the Time for Justice series we look at how doing this work might impact on our walk with Jesus.
Find out here what we're starting to do.

Neither do I condemn you.........go and sin no more. If that worked for this woman, I think it could only have been because of her confrontation by Christ himself who has not only the power to forgive but also to heal & enable. Luke 5:23-24. A powerful if not essential combination: forgiveness & healing. For this to work today I think we God's people need to so demonstrate Christ indwelling in us and society and our government and our judicial system that those in need of forgiveness and healing are confronted by Jesus within us.
Is this a realistic expectation in the decadent society we live in today?
On the broader scale we are more inclined to pin this sin of injustice on those in power who either fail to exercise their authority in the way God wants them to, or who themselves have been corrupted by the power given to them. But those in power have been put there by a people...... ...........yes I think I've done full circle.
Actually I'm inclined to think that our problem is not so much as to be unforgiving, but undiscerning of the seriousness of sin.
So what do we do ? Is ours a passive resistance, accept the status quo and flee to the mountains as in Mat. 24 ? Yes, how do we interpret this chapter in this day and age?
