INJUSTICE IS A SUB CULTURE EVEN IN THE PHYSICAL WORLD
He that JUSTIFIETH the wicked, and He that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the Lord.
Proverbs 17:15
God is a Righteous God clothed with Justice. Justice connotes fairness, impartiality, correctness or conforming to rules, regulations and procedures. Whilst righteousness connotes the ability to do right to all manner of persons irrespective of their social, financial, academic et cetera standing.
Bible says, Christians are the righteousness of God THROUGH CHRIST JESUS. It means we have the ability to do right to all manner of persons irrespective of their status in the social structure of our spheres of contact. God abhors injustice, which is the absence of fairness, and non conformance to lay down procedures.
Injustice is not only unacceptable in the scheme of God. The secular world has institutions that protects those who suffer injustice. It is a sub culture which is gradually becoming a norm. The winner takes all atittude and becoming rich NO MATTER WHAT the means, method or source of the riches is gradually creeping into the moral fabric of human kind as we draw to the close of time.
People are willing to do and are actually doing all and everything they can to amass wealth. I wonder whether they think life eternal is just like life here on earth. Biblical records has it that, the man who lived longer than any other human, Methuselah, at the time of death was 960 years. But that is nothing to compare with the number of years he has spent in death: 'Methuselah has lived longer in death than his age on earth.' and he is still counting until the second coming of Christ Jesus. This is just to give you a wake up call, to what eternity connotes.
I was listening to a news reportage on a documentary by a journalist on the land guard menace and the land regime especially in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana on Joy FM on Monday 30 October 2017. A man complained, the situation is appalling to the extent that you may have a title certificate or deed as rightful ownner of a parcel of land and another person will claim ownership to that said land also having a title certificate or deed.
'...Execute ye judgment and righteousness,...: and do no wrong, do no violence to the stranger, fatherless nor the widow... Saith the Lord to those in privilege positions/ appointments and authority. Jeremiah 22: 3 & 4. Verse 5, cautions, ' BUT if ye will not hear these words, I swear by myself, saith the Lord. This house shall become a desolation. Bible says, God has shown you what is good and what the Lord requires of you: to do justly and to LOVE mercy and to walk humbly with God. Micah 6:8.
The plea of all those who has suffered injustice and UNRIGHTEOUSNESS at the hands of Christians and unbelievers alike is captured in Psam 43:1, 'Clear my name God, stick up for me against these loveless, immoral people. Get me out of here, away from these lying degenerates. Bible The Message rendition.
Mercy oh God!
