A Justice Primer

Justice is a popular word. But its popular meaning and application have become distorted. If God is the Judge of all the earth, His definition of justice and His standards for applying it must be the basis of every creature’s pursuit of it. In A Justice Primer, Randy Booth and Douglas Wilson bring their considerable pastoral experience to the topic. They unfold biblical principles that can be applied among individuals and in the spheres of family, church, and state. Issues including jurisdiction, charges, evidence, and the particularly thorny topic of sex abuse are covered. And all parties—accused and accuser, judge and jury, witness and rubbernecking internet bystander—are reminded that, although justice on earth will never be perfect, the Judge of all the earth will do right, letting no guilt go unpunished and no offended innocence go unavenged.DOUGLAS WILSON & RANDY BOOTH have over seventy years’ pastoral experience between them. Doug has shepherded Christ Church, Moscow, Idaho, almost since its inception and is the author of scores of books. He and his wife, Nancy, have three children and seventeen grandchildren. Randy currently serves at Grace Covenant Presbyterian Church in Nacogdoches, Texas, where he is also the director of Covenant Media Foundation. He is married to Marinell, and they have three children and sixteen grandchildren.
