Justice at the Gate - October 10th, 2021 (Sermon)
The Bible is full of stories that depict the world in all of its complex colors. We are told to love our neighbor; give of ourselves beyond what we might think is possible; live in truth, honesty and humility; but what does the Bible say of justice? Today we will look at an example from the modern day: The story of Tarmar Biggins.The God illustrated in the Bible is a protector of the poor and oppressed. Mistreating those who are downtrodden, taking advantage of an individual's misfortune, and further oppressing those who are in pain is not only discouraged, but condemned. We are supposed to share in the struggles of our brothers and sisters. We are supposed to always extend a hand to those in need. Part of love is solidarity and share our burdens with God and with each other. We hope you enjoy this beautiful sermon. Thank you for joining us.
