Let Justice Flow Like Water

Toward a Theology of Biblical Justice

About this book

Edited by Joshua M. Greever, D. A. Horton, and Justin McLendon, Let Justice Flow Like Water addresses the strained relationship between social justice, the gospel, and the mission of the church. In response to the misuse of Scripture to promote personal ends, the volume reorients the conversation around justice and centers it in the biblical text and its theological implications. The authors provide practical wisdom and points of application to pastors, ministry leaders, and students. The authors examine the most-frequently cited texts on biblical justice through a coherent biblical and systematic-theological method. The result is a glimpse into God's heart for justice and his desire for humanity—especially the church—to share this heart. The volume's theology is supplemented by practical guidance to pastors so that they can lead their churches to embrace the gospel and social justice, properly understood. Let Justice Flow Like Water serves as an irenic reminder to pastors, students, and educated lay people to return to the biblical text to understand it more accurately, and to reengage and understand one another in a winsome fashion for the sake of the gospel, the mission of the church, and the glory of God.
