“Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.”
Ephesians 4:29-32 ESV
All,This stands out because Paul says, “Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.” Is it ok to feel angry when people are doing hurtful things? Is it ok to want to correct people who are manipulating the oppressed? God has given us genuine desire for justice, but He also knows we can be in the flesh at times too. These verses describe how we are to handle the injustices of this world. God is not wringing His hands wondering about the outcome, so neither should we. We can abide in Him and have faith that He will walk us through these situations. Please pray that we and our friends speak the TRUTH in LOVE today as we see injustice. Please pray for Christians to be about Biblical Justice.
