Such a book was needed a decade ago when the social justice meme was started by the left and got traction in the drive by culture.

Jesus quoted Deuteromony when asked about the greatest command, love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind and soul, and then Jesus said yo love your neighbor as yourself.

Loving God means following and obeying His word in totality. Do that and loving your neighbor flows from that and is easy.

Interesting to read this after a post I made on FB this morning:

In a society without unity as a substratum, diversity is weakness, not strength. There is no future for a nation more interested in nursing historical grievances than in working together for the good of all. Mis dos centavos.”

“Consider white supremacy,” he writes. “The belief that white-skinned humans are superior to other humans has led to many non-whites not receiving what they are due. We must work to make white supremacy a dead relic of the past. But the injustice of white supremacy has a transcendent dimension, something almost no one talks about that keeps us swatting at the bad fruits rather than chopping at the sick roots of racism. It makes race, not God, supreme.” …

Why consider a canard of the left as if it were legitimate?

The phrase “social justice” really means “socialist justice”. Mussolini was very fond of the phrase, even going so far as to define it as various things such as “work guaranteed, fair wages, decent homes […] the possibility of continuous evolution and improvement” and also “the workers … enter(ing) more and more intimately into the productive process and shar(ing) its necessary discipline” (as if he knew anything about it). Why legitimize a phrase favored by such a man?

“Social justice” as defined by the left is Newspeak for cultural Marxism. It isn’t Biblical justice at all.

My problem with most “Universal acceptance” type of doctrine is that it is not biblical. Yes the initial message of the gospel should be spoken and witnessed to everyone. But some of the world will reject that message by either outright rejection or by failing to believe.

Acceptance of the gospel requires repentance. Those that do not accept the gospel in peace should not be “accepted”.

Mathew 10:14

If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet.

To me the message is that we are to universally share the gospel, but only those that accept the gospel are to be accepted. And that acceptance is to be without regard to persons.

The problem is the moral code of most modern Americans has become entirely separated from that of the Bible.

Racism, feminism, liberalism. None of these existed in Biblical times and are not conceived of in the moral code Jesus taught.
