But Christians need to understand that this isn’t the job of the government, and this isn’t “social justice.” This is the work of the church. This is what Christians have always been called to do. And it is not fueled by resentment for those who have more than we do but by the power of the Gospel, which calls us to love others indiscriminately—literally “as yourself” (Galatians 5:14). This Gospel has been the sufficient driver of true justice as long as it’s existed.
