Is justice about dismantling oppressive systems and redistributing power to achieve equality of outcome? Or is that a redefinition of true justice? In recent years, postmodernism and neo-Marxist critical theory have shaped a new ideology labeled "social justice." Though it claims to promote equality and defend the oppressed, this worldview stands in stark contrast to biblical justice.
In this episode, we offer a defense of biblical justice and explain why we've moved away from the phrase "social justice." Join us as we unpack the foundational ideas behind these two opposing views of justice and explore the consequences of living them out in today's society.
