![]() ![]() Distributive Justice: impartially rendering judgment, righting wrongs, and meting out punishment for lawbreaking. Scott Allen Contrasts this New Definition with Biblical Justice:Ĭonformity to God’s moral standard as revealed in the Ten Commandments and the Royal Law: “love your neighbor as yourself.” Communitive Justice: living in right relationship with God and others giving people their due as image-bearers of God. ![]() Scott David Allen notes the contemporary redefinition of “justice”: “Deconstructing traditional systems and structures deemed to be oppressive, and redistributing power and resources from oppressors to their victims in the pursuit of equality of outcome.” It is obsessed with power, privilege, oppression, and victimization it uses pragmatic tactics to cow dissenters into submission it fixates on identity markers such as class, race, gender, and sexual orientation it is openly hostile to Judeo-Christian religion it is militant against the natural family and traditional sexuality and it focuses on the redistribution of wealth and power by means of a powerful state apparatus… I posted in Facebook some of Tim Challies’ observations in his review of Scott David Allen’ s book, Why Social Justice is Not Biblical Justice (Credo House Pub., 2020). ![]()
