Summary

Does the gospel have implications for social justice? Is social justice a distraction from the gospel? I have had many people ask me recently about the issue of social justice. As Christians, we are called to live as a gospel people, and in light of recent cultural conversations on this topic some have wondered about the connection between the gospel and justice. In this episode of Signposts, I discuss this issue and consider the Bible’s instruction for Christians seeking to live faithfully in the world and in obedience to the gospel. Listen above, and be sure to subscribe to get new episodes of Signposts as they are released. The post The Gospel and Social Injustice – Part 1 appeared first on Russell Moore.

0:57.1	listener ask me the other day, what about the various controversies that can
1:02.2	come up from time to time about whether or not the gospel
1:05.2	has anything to do with social justice.
1:08.4	And my response to that is first of all to say there really aren't any controversies out there about whether or not
1:15.8	the gospel has anything to do with social justice because I challenge you to find anyone who actually in practice would deny that the
