Well, I know where your skepticism is coming from, since most of the time nowadays "Social Justice" is a mere euphemism for "the Democratic Party agenda." It's been that way in churches (Protestant, Catholic and Jewish) for many decades now.

However, that is not the proper meaning of the word, which is used hundreds of times in the Old and New Testaments, where it never means "socialism"--- and these are typical examples:

Genesis 18:19
For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.

Deuteronomy 33:21
And he provided the first part for himself, because there, in a portion of the lawgiver, was he seated; and he came with the heads of the people, he executed the justice of the LORD, and his judgments with Israel.

1 Kings 10:9
Blessed be the LORD thy God, which delighted in thee, to set thee on the throne of Israel: because the LORD loved Israel for ever, therefore the LORD made thee king, to do judgment and justice.

But in Biblical context, "justice" means something somewhat different from leftism!

My hope for Mr, Simoneau, and others similarly situated, is that we can wrest back the word "justice" from the Left, and define it, well, "rightly" as God intends.
