“I will tell you what to hate. Hate hypocrisy, hate cant, hate indolence, oppression, injustice; hate Pharisaism; hate them as Christ hated them with a deep, living, godlike hatred.” HateChristHatredInjusticeOppressionHatedHypocrisyCantIndolenceGodlikePharisaism Author:Frederick William Robertson
“So too, since Christ has in principle defeated the fallen "gods" (principalities and powers) who have for ages inspired injustice, cruelty and apathy toward the weak, the poor the oppressed and the needy (Ps. 82), the church can hardly carry out its role in manifesting, on earth and in heaven, Christ's victory over these gods without taking up as a central part of its missions just these causes. We can, in truth, no more bifurcate social concerns and individual salvation than we can bifurcate the cosmic and anthropocentric dimensions of Christ's work on the cross.” AgeEarthIndividualHeavenSocialCausesChristChurchPoorPrinciplesRolesVictoryConcernCrossesWeakSalvationInspiredInjusticeMissionsCrueltyFallenDimensionsManifestCosmicApathyDefeatedOppressedNeedy Book:God at War: The Bible & Spiritual Conflict Source: God at War: The Bible & Spiritual Conflict
“Really living like Christ will not mean reward, social recognition, and an assured income, but difficulties, discrimination, solitude, anxiety. Here, too, the basic experience of the cross applies: the wider we open our hearts to others, the more audibly we intervene against the injustice that rules over us, the more difficult our lives in the rich unjust society will become.” HeartMeanSocialDifficultChristRichOur LivesSolitudeAnxietyCrossesDifficultyRewardsInjusticeIncomeDiscriminationRecognitionUnjustAssuredReally LivingUnjust Society Book:Thinking about God: an introduction to theology Source: Thinking about God: an introduction to theology
