Episode notes
Biblical Justice vs. Pagan Views
- Biblical justice is about order, things being in their proper place.
- Objective justice implies a pre-existing order, unlike cyclical pagan views.
Two Steps of Creation
- Creation involves two steps: ordering (justice) and filling with life.
- A garden symbolizes this balance, deviating towards lifeless order or chaotic overgrowth.
Chaotic Overgrowth
- Stephen DeYoung uses swimming in Louisiana bayous as an example.
- Disordered abundance of life, like algae and gators, becomes dangerous chaos.
