Yet American Protestant churches lapped up the Social Gospel concept, and still blindly follow it today.
...please be aware that the Catholic Church of tday has seen fit to follow in that same erroneous pathway, to its great detriment...
...when ‘social justice’ becomes the bailiwick of a supposed pro life organization, then that organization must be prepared to rebut the suggestion that abortion itself is ‘social justice’, as it can be promoted that ‘relief from cultural and social hardship’ through it’s use is beneficial...the Church is then put in the position of adequately defining ‘social justice’, rather than in its true mandate of affirming a Christian principle...
Without Christ it’s not social ministry.
