Justice

 

Acts 17:30 The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent, 31 For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising him from the dead."

Justice usually has to do with truth about attitudes, deeds, behavior and the awareness of those around us of the truth. It does not work perfectly in my observations of life. The child who starts the fight is often not the one that is corrected. The dealer who starts others in destructive habits does not pay for the pain and suffering of those addicted. BUT, God knows. And The Father of all sent Jesus to offer a way of life change (call it repentance) based on His suffering, death and resurrection that was as unjust as any other story. Our ignorance about guilt and such is covered not by human wisdom, but by the gift of the Redeemer. Have I seen my sins covered by Him? Have you? Have we seen others covered by Him? That ignorance still is in the world, but we are offered the opportunity to proclaim this covering of God justice to all, always and forever. That is Justice.
