Theology for the Church Biblical Justice with Joshua Greever
In this conversation, Caleb is joined by Joshua Greever (PhD, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary) associate dean of seminary programs and associate professor of New Testament at Bethlehem College and Seminary to discuss the concept of biblical justice as outlined in his edited volume, Let Justice Flow Like Water. The discussion explores the definition of justice from a biblical perspective, the role of God's holiness, the storyline of Scripture, and the implications for the church and individual Christians. Greever emphasizes the importance of understanding justice in light of the gospel and how Jesus fulfills the hope for justice. The conversation also addresses the expectations of justice in a fallen world and the church's mission in embodying justice.Resources:
