JUSTICE as defined by Oswald Chambers

Perhaps Examining Definitional Boundaries Today Has Merit Considering ….

The thing that makes us whimper is that we will look for justice. If you look for justice in your Christian work you will soon put yourself in a bandage and give way to self-pity and discouragement. Never look for justice, but rather, never cease to give it; and never allow anyone or anything you meet with to sour your relationship to men through Jesus Christ. Rather, Love … as I have loved you. Approved Unto God, 16 R

The teaching of the Sermon on the Mount is never to look for justice but never cease to give it. We waste our time merely looking for justice, when it is our responsibility to see that we always give justice to others. “If you are My disciple,” Jesus says, “people won’t play fair; but never mind that; see that you play fair.” The Highest Good – The Pilgrim’s Song Book, 527 R

One of the great stirring truths of the Bible is that the man who looks for justice from others is a fool … Never waste your time looking for justice; if you do you will soon put yourself in bandages and give way to self-pity. Rather, it is our business to see that no one suffers from OUR injustice. Shade of His Hand, 1205 R
