The whole world is crying out for justice. The Arab Spring, the foreign
troops in Afghanistan, the shocked Norwegians who try to hold
their head together in the midst of their national tragedy.
Justice can never be found without the truth.
Truth is not a human invention. Man is frustrated and angry about
the Truth, because he cannot change it. Finally he crucifies it, Him.
Death cannot keep the Truth. He overcomes death and leaves this
planet freely, just as he had entered the world without permission
from the world counsel of wise men and women.
It’s like the huge universe where man is sitting offended on a tiny
planet refusing to spin around. He doesn’t like it.
He doesn’t like it, because he cannot control it.
He writes books against spinning, he fills his planet with signs against
spinning, he broadcasts endlessly news against it, still spinning himself
inescapably. Hmm…
God is said to be the Father of the Fatherless, the defender of widows.
Psalm 68:5
He will bring forth justice His way.
“He will not cry out, nor raise His voice,
nor cause His voice to be heard in the street.
A bruised reed He will not break, and smoking flax He will not quench.
He will bring forth justice for truth.” Isaiah 42:2-3
Man’s system of justice cannot accept grace.
If grace is not allowed in the picture, forgiveness loses it’s divine value.
It becomes just a human commodity, traded for money and
manipulated by manmade markets.
I’d rather have God as my defender.
