I was just thinking, the other day, that a sense of justice is as real as the sense of sight. Aristotle, apparently, arrived at what he thought were the five senses because he could determine the organs detecting them. Apparently, his sense of balance escaped him.
I believe that we all have a sense of justice, too. People simply lie or make excuses for the outcome they want, at times. Black muggers see little old white ladies “oppressing” them.
The problem though with people’s sense of,justice is that it is largely subjective in order to,get the results they want in any given situation in which they seek to justify some action, and people’s sense of,subjective justice is at war with God’s universal moral code written on everyone’s heart
To show,that this universal moral code is written on everyone’s heart, people,who,got,saved out,of,primitive cultures that “allowed anything” confessed,that even though their tribe claimed that they allowed anything, infsct that did not happen as their subjective sense of,justice would,kick,in, andmthey would,lord it over the others for the benefit of,the one doing the loading
Also, those who got,saved stated that while their tribe claimed that th3y “allowed anything”, that they always had a sense that they were violating some outside code (they didn’t realize at the time that it was this universal moral code given by God), and they always felt guilty but didn’t know why. (This,was the holy spirit,leading them to seek Christ even though at the time they didnt know who it was that they didn’t know,,, or what even that they knew they should,seek an answer to the nagging conscience.
