“I tell you, if your justice goes no deeper than that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never get into the kingdom of heaven” Matt 5: 20 God’s justice is done when arbitration is transformed by reconciliation; when people become more than objects of desire, manipulation and profit; when poverty is confronted by asking, not how much the poor require, but how much the rich need; when the goods of the earth are looked upon, not as sources of private profit, but as sacraments of divine and human inter-communication. As and when such things occur, then God’s justice is done, and there the kingdom of God becomes manifest. For the justice of God is the kingdom of God. Mark Searle: Serving the Lord with Justice |
