As promised, here’s our online space to continue our look at Life in the Upside Down Kingdom. Below are some of the scripture references from Sunday. What are your first thoughts? What does it mean for us as a community to seek justice, to love kindness, and to walk humbly with God? I look forward to reading your comments soon!
Ps. 37.28, For the LORD loves the just and will not forsake his faithful ones. They will be protected forever, but the offspring of the wicked will be cut off;
Gen. 18.19, For I have chosen him, so that he will direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just, so that the LORD will bring about for Abraham what he has promised him.”
Deut. 27.19, “Cursed is the man who withholds justice from the alien, the fatherless or the widow.” Then all the people shall say, “Amen!”
Jer. 22.3, This is what the LORD says: Do what is just and right. Rescue from the hand of his oppressor the one who has been robbed. Do no wrong or violence to the alien, the fatherless or the widow, and do not shed innocent blood in this place.
Prov. 28.5, Evil men do not understand justice, but those who seek the LORD understand it fully.
