What is doing justice? -- Justice and the Old Testament -- What did Jesus say about justice? -- Justice and your neighbor -- Why should we do justice? -- How should we do justice? -- Doing justice in the public square -- Peace, beauty, and justice.
Subject: It is commonly thought in secular society that the Bible is one of the greatest hindrances to doing justice. Isn't it full of regressive views? Didn't it condone slavery? Why look to the Bible for guidance on how to have a more just society? But Timothy Keller challenges these preconceived beliefs and presents the Bible as a fundamental source for promoting justice and compassion for those in need. In Generous Justice, he explores a life of justice empowered by an experience of grace: a generous, gracious justice. This book offers readers a new understanding of modern justice and human rights that will resonate with both the faithful and the skeptical.
