Shifting to Justice (#964)

After five weeks exploring This Changes Everything with Tobie, Kyle and Wayne take a look at how the shift from righteousness to justice has impacted their lives. They talk about the necessity of a true conversion, not just jumping through some religious hoops that don't begin to fill us with Life and Love. They also talk about how this impacts the gifts of the Spirit play into their lives, and how decisions become a more clearer when focused on fairness and Life, not just making the best decision we can for ourselves.

  1. I so agree that He is transforming us throughout this damaged world system.

    We are being made like Christ, that is the purpose, the goal of the Lord in us throughout our life. And that means many things wont be just at this time. (Rom. 8: 29)

    The Laodicean Church are focused on `Justice. ` Lao` people, and `dike` justice, meaning the people`s justice. They are trying to bring that on earth themselves instead of realizing that the Lord will do that in His time.

  2. Sadly when many Christians think about Justice, they only think about retributive justice that focuses on punishing. They use references to an “eye for eye” or “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. When we don’t fully understand that God IS love, and that it is out of his love that we all received his grace and forgiveness, even though the wages of sin is death, we received life. When it comes to God’s justice, it’s more about compassionate and restorative justice. He was reconciling the world to himself through Christ, by not counting our sins against us, and he has given us this message of reconciliation, or compassionate and restorative justice, to those around us, not counting their sins against them, but letting his love flow in and through us to those around us, to help reconcile them to him.

  3. Vincent’s Word Studies is an illuminating insight on this ( old ) revelation !
    Read his exposition on Romans 1:17.
