Signs of the Times

[Harry F. Ward in The Biblical World]

I believe in giving justice, because such an attitude is one of the expressions of God in human living. So necessary have men seen justice to be that they have always conceived God as a just Being. They got astray with their doctrine of the divine right of kings because they truly felt that the real king could not do wrong. "Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?" In all ages the comfort and the stay of the oppressed has been the belief that somewhere there was a just God whose ear is never closed to the cry of those who suffer injustice and from whose hands redress can finally be secured. Herein is evidence that justice is one of the supreme values of life. Men believe in a God who is always seeking to establish justice. Those who thus believe will join with Him in that endeavor.

[Rev. Stewart Means, D. D., in The Hibbert Journal]
