Gospel Privilege and Global Missions

Chad Vegas

In recent years we have had a growing concern about “social justice.” What is meant by that phrase, however, varies widely among those who use and promote it. What is too often missing—even in the calls for “social justice” coming from Christian leaders—is a clear understanding of biblical justice. Justice exists because God is just and righteous. He is the One who defines justice and He has revealed what true justice is in the Bible.

This presentation was given by Chad Vegas on May 16, 2019 at the Founders “The Gospel and Justice“ National conference in Louisville, Kentucky.
