This book was released on 2022-10-28 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the author shares things about his life. Some of these things that happened were intentional wrongs done to him by his family and the justice system. Here he opens his life experiences and his heart to the readers to let them know that there is truth. There is a real God, the triune God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob--God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Throughout the book, the author relates to the reader and addresses the question, "Where is God?" In our world today, many people are so caught up in the things of everyday life or continual affliction and depression that the circumstances make them believe that there is no God or that God has abandoned them. It is not true but what the evil one wants you to believe. Many of our friends and family are bombarded with deceit to keep us from having a relationship with God. The deceit in politics, the news, the federal, and international agencies that are pushing us toward a one-world order and religion. Those people do not want you to know God! They want you to believe that they are God. The author uses his life to show you, dear reader, that they do not care about you but that the true God does. You see how there were times when it seemed that there was no hope, there was. There were times when doctors could not help, God did. Through everything that happened, you will see that you, too, can have that hope, that relationship with God. In your darkest hour, He is right there with you, and you are not alone. Friend, to say that God is not who He says He is or that God is not with you is a lie from the evil one. Yes, it is what he wants you to believe, and it is still a lie from the pit of hell. You may not know it, but Jesus is constantly praying for you to the Father, and the Holy Spirit is right beside you either knocking at your heart's door or living inside you if you have accepted Jesus as your Savior. That is the truth. If you have not invited Jesus into your life to be your savior so you can live eternity with him, I invite you to do so right now. Understand that the things of this life are going to pass away, and we are closer than ever before to being caught up to meet Jesus in the air and be with Him forever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suffering and evil affect us all, both at a general level, as we look at a world filled with injustice, natural disasters and poverty, and at a personal level, as we experience grief, pain and unfairness. And how we think about and process the reality of pain is at the heart of why many people reject God. Dr. Amy Orr-Ewing is no stranger to pain and gives a heartfelt yet academically rigorous examination of how different belief systems deal with the problem of pain. She explains the unique answer that is found in Christ and how he can give us hope in the reality of suffering. This empathetic, easy-to-read and powerful evangelistic book is good for both unbelievers and believers alike. It will help those hoping to answer one of life’s biggest questions as well as those who are either suffering personally or comforting others.

Book excerpt: Why a Book on Justice? Whether reading in the Pentateuch, the books of history, the prophets or the teachings of Jesus, Justice is the central ethical message of importance that runs throughout the Bible. A fact attested to by some 2,000 justice related verses dealing with: poverty, homelessness, employment, immigration issues, and political, religious, economic and judicial corruption. Why Justice as it Relates to Nations? Nations consists of systems (governmental, judicial, economic, political, social etc.), institutions (banks, hospitals, schools, law enforcement etc.) and leaders, the people who run them. Nations are only as strong and moral as it's systems, institutions and leaders are just. God desires a society where, "a mighty flood of justice and an endless river of righteous living" (Amos 5:24 NLT) would saturate the people and the systems which govern their lives. Why Be Concerned With Systemic Injustice? When injustice infects nations to the point where oppression and exploitation are institutionalized, thereby becoming systemic, God in the absence of repentance, destroys those oppressive systems (political, economic, religious, judicial, military etc.) which often leads to the fall of that nation. God does so because systemic evil is far greater than personal evil in its capacity to destroy the souls of men. The Egyptians of the Bible, the Roman Empire, Nazi Germany, and Slavery of the Confederate States of the South all serve as examples of the evil and consequences of Systemic Injustice. The Redemptive Power of Justice! God is not only interested in the redemption of the souls of men, but also in the redemption of the systems which govern their souls. Justification, a grace of God, redeems the soul. Justice, the duty of nations, redeems the systems of nations. Therefore the redemptive story of Justice in the Bible is how well nations, systems, institutions and the men and women who ran them would, "do justly, love mercy and walk humbly with God" (Micah 6:8).

Book excerpt: Can a justice system that doesn’t protect the poor be considered truly just? We have all heard the phrase, “You have the right to an attorney.” But did you know this is only true for those being accused of a crime in our country, not their victims? Without a legal advocate, innocent victims are left to fend for themselves. The church is called to do justice and love mercy. We are given the example of the Good Samaritan serving a victim in need, no matter the stigmas attached. But how are we to do this amidst the complexities of the current system? Bruce Strom left a successful legal career to start Administer Justice, a nonprofit organization providing free legal care to our most vulnerable neighbors. Gospel Justice calls churches across the nation to transform lives by serving both the spiritual and legal needs of the poor through participation in the Gospel Justice Initiative. It is not only a book for lawyers or pastors, though. Bruce Strom is calling each of us, the whole body of Christ, to join the cause of legal justice for the oppressed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Christians who take the Bible seriously dare not ignore this message. Paul Nyquist writes like an Old Testament prophet in modern America . . . ” — Leith Anderson, president, National Association of Evangelicals | Washington, DC “Paul Nyquist brings a biblical focus and discerning look at why justice matters and how we might worktoward it.”- Ed Stetzer, Billy Graham Chair | Wheaton College “… [Explains] why justice often eludes us in this life, but also how we must work to achieve it as best we can.”— Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer, pastor emeritus, The Moody Church | Chicago Why is justice so hard to come by? The innocent are convicted. The guilty get away. The scales tip toward the powerful, while the weak remain oppressed. If our world is so sophisticated, why is there so much injustice? What can believers do? Can we ever expect justice? Dr. Paul Nyquist, former president of Moody Bible Institute, addresses these questions and more in his new book, Is Justice Possible? In four parts he considers: Biblical and theological foundations of justice Obstacles to justice in human society Practical steps for pursuing justice in political, personal, and public arenas The hope of true justice upon Christ’s return As police shootings and wrongful incarcerations raise increasing questions in the minds of Christians, Is Justice Possible? will seek to provide answers and establish biblical expectations. At its core, this is a book about an attribute of God. Rather than rely on our own ideas of justice, we must look to the One who made us and embodies justice perfectly. Only then can we pursue justice in purposeful, effective, eternal ways.

From classroom to jobsite, each chapter examines common beliefs and practices to reveal the unjust nature of today's lifestyles. But lest we assume that God has allowed us to distort His Word as given on a variety of challenges in modern life, Scripture reminds us of His promises and the prophecy that all will face justice'God's justice'in the time to come. In the meantime, there are several steps we can take to keep in tune with God's mandates for our lives and reflecting his love for others in daily living.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Noted Attorney and Seminary Graduate Matthew T. Martens Answers the Question: Does the Design and Operation of the American Criminal Justice System Reflect Christian Love of Neighbor? Jesus told his followers that the entirety of the Old Testament's law is encapsulated in the commands to love God and to love their neighbors as themselves. In Reforming Criminal Justice: A Christian Proposal, Matthew T. Martens argues that love of neighbor must be the animating force for true reformation of the criminal justice system, obligating us to seek the best for both the criminally victimized and the criminally accused. Using his theological training Martens reveals how Scripture provides several guideposts (accuracy, due process, accountability, impartiality, and proportionality) for loving our neighbors as it relates to criminal justice. Then, drawing on his near quarter century practicing criminal law, he examines how America's justice system falls short of the biblical standard. By understanding how our current system operates and considering how love of neighbor relates to issues of crime and justice, we will be better equipped to seek true Christian reform of the justice system. A Biblical Perspective on Criminal Justice: Offers a biblical framework for thinking about the concept of justice for both the victim and the perpetrator Examines the History of the American Criminal Justice System: Surveys the evolution of the criminal justice system in the United States with a focus on its misuse from the time of the Civil War to the civil rights movement Assesses the Criminal Justice System: Examines the operation of the American justice system today, including plea bargains, assistance of counsel, the death penalty, and more Foreword by Derwin L. Gray: Pastor of Transformation Church in Indian Land, South Carolina, and the author of How to Heal Our Racial Divide and Building a Multiethnic Church

This book was released on 2020-12-22 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God does not suggest, he commands that we do justice. Social justice is not optional for the Christian. All injustice affects others, so talking about justice that isn't social is like talking about water that isn't wet or a square with no right angles. But the Bible's call to seek justice is not a call to superficial, kneejerk activism. We are not merely commanded to execute justice, but to "truly execute justice." The God who commands us to seek justice is the same God who commands us to "test everything" and "hold fast to what is good." Drawing from a diverse range of theologians, sociologists, artists, and activists, Confronting Injustice without Compromising Truth, by Thaddeus Williams, makes the case that we must be discerning if we are to "truly execute justice" as Scripture commands. Not everything called "social justice" today is compatible with a biblical vision of a better world. The Bible offers hopeful and distinctive answers to deep questions of worship, community, salvation, and knowledge that ought to mark a uniquely Christian pursuit of justice. Topics addressed include: Racism Sexuality Socialism Culture War Abortion Tribalism Critical Theory Identity Politics Confronting Injustice without Compromising Truth also brings in unique voices to talk about their experiences with these various social justice issues, including: Michelle-Lee Barnwall Suresh Budhaprithi Eddie Byun Freddie Cardoza Becket Cook Bella Danusiar Monique Duson Ojo Okeye Edwin Ramirez Samuel Sey Neil Shenvi Walt Sobchak In Confronting Injustice without Compromising Truth, Thaddeus Williams transcends our religious and political tribalism and challenges readers to discover what the Bible and the example of Jesus have to teach us about justice. He presents a compelling vision of justice for all God's image-bearers that offers hopeful answers to life's biggest questions.

Never could understand why I was treated so unfair and unjust, in the court of law, after the murder of my son. My experience in the court system, have left me staggering, I have lost my faith in the justice system. I am just a nobody trying to tell somebody, about the way I was treated, in the court of law, by high powerful people who you would look up to, for Justice To Be Served. I think my story will make a great spiritual movie, I think my story will inspire and give so much of inspiration to someone in need for someone to hear their silent cry in their voice. I think my story will make a great true crime movie along with, how to get away with murder, why the truth did not set me free? Episodes of a soap opera, I am a fan of the Young and Restless. Black on black crimes and murders. A six month job, a six month resident and a short term relationship that ended in a DNA testing landed me in a court room, a court room where I felt discrimination, I was mislead, deceived and the presence of court house scam was there. Creditably and morale values meant nothing in that court of law I was in. So, here I am, speaking out and pray that I touch someone, to help me, bring my story back into to the light with life once again. A dream I can feel about to come to reality. Oh yes, my Jesus is getting me ready to say, Justice Have Been Served.

This book was released on 2013-05-14 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having taught on ethics in Africa for almost a decade, James Nkansah-Obrempong presents a work that goes some way to addressing the dearth of materials on ethics that combine African social, religious, cultural and moral values with biblical and theological values. Integrating these from African, Western and biblical contexts Nkansah demonstrates how important they are for dealing with contemporary moral and social issues facing the church in Africa and African societies. The book develops a theoretical, biblical and theological foundation for Theological Ethics and uses this to address the broader issues that affect the socio-political and economic life of African people and the church.
