Nope.<\/h2>\n<p>On the topic of justice, here is a brief summary of what I say in the podcast, and also what I will be teaching in my soon-to-be-released <a href=\"https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/courses\/gospel-dictionary\/\">Gospel Dictionary<\/a> lesson on justice:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJustice\u201d is not in the Bible. Indeed, the English word \u201cjustice\u201d is not found anywhere in the New Testament of the King James Version.<\/p>\n<p>The trouble with justice begins in the Bible translation. On the one hand, there are several Greek and Hebrew words that often get translated as \u201cjustice\u201d and then then are several other English words that are used as translations for the Greek and Hebrew terms.<\/p>\n<p>Usually, translation troubles come from one direction or the other. For example, we have one English word \u201clove\u201d that is often used to translate four different Greek words for love (<em>agape, philia, eros, <\/em>and <em>storg\u0113<\/em>). Other times, there are numerous English words that are often used to translate one Greek word, such as both faith and belief being used as a translation for <em>pistis. <\/em>With the justice word family, both of these translation troubles exist.<\/p>\n<p>With justice, the two main Greek terms are <em>krisis <\/em>(2920) and <em>dikaiosun\u0113 <\/em>(1342). However, as seen previously, the best translation for <em>krisis <\/em>is judgment; not justice (see <em>Judgment<\/em>). In the passages where <em>krisis <\/em>is translated as justice, the term judgment (and specially, the concept of properly naming or identifying something) is a better translation (cf. Matt 12:18, 20; 23:23; Luke 11:42; Acts 8:33). Therefore, it seems best to always translate <em>krisis <\/em>as judgment rather than justice.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-53169\" src=\"https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/justice_gettyimages-570x428.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"570\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/justice_gettyimages-570x428.jpg 570w, https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/justice_gettyimages-1080x810.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/justice_gettyimages-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/justice_gettyimages-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/justice_gettyimages-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/justice_gettyimages.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>That leaves the <em>dikaiosun\u0113 <\/em>word family. The <em>dikaiosun\u0113<\/em> word family (including <em>dik\u0113, dikaios, dikaio\u014d<\/em>) is variously translated as justice, justification, justify, just, and righteousness and a few others. You will notice that the term righteousness and justification have no English semantic connection, and yet they are both used to translate the same Greek term, <em>dikaiosun\u0113. <\/em>As argued elsewhere in <em>The Gospel Dictionary, <\/em>it is best, when translating a single Greek term and for clarity\u2019s sake, to pick one English term and stick with it. No English reader who has little knowledge of Greek would ever imagine that a single Greek word lies behind the translation of both righteousness <em>and <\/em>justification. So it is of immense help to the English reader to pick a single English word (and its word family) as a translation for a single Greek word (and its word family).<\/p>\n<p>With <em>dikaiosun\u0113, <\/em>we have two English choices. We can choose the \u201cjust\u201d word family (justice, justification, justify) or the \u201cright\u201d word family (righteous, rectification\u2014or rightification, rectify\u2014or rightify). Since \u201crightification\u201d is not an English word, the initial inclination is to go with the \u201cjust\u201d word family. However, the Greek term <em>dikaiosun\u0113 <\/em>is most literally translated \u201cto make right.\u201d Since, as seen above, the term <em>justice <\/em>is so misunderstood and misapplied today, it seems that using the right word family is the \u201cright\u201d way to translate the <em>dikaiosun\u0113 <\/em>word family.<\/p>\n<p>The Hebrew words <em>tsedeq <\/em>(6664) and <em>misphat <\/em>(4941) have also been translated as justice, but <em>tsedeq <\/em>is best translated as \u201crighteousness\u201d and <em>misphat <\/em>as \u201cjudgment.\u201d So again, justice is not in the Bible.<\/p>\n<p>But righteousness is. When humans cry out for justice, what we really want is righteousness. We want things to be set right. And God\u2019s way of achieving righteousness is far better and far different than the human, earthly way of seeking justice. In fact, the two are usually at polar opposites of the morality spectrum. The human methods of achieving justice are often seen as unrighteous by God, while the divine methods of righteousness are often viewed by humans as unfair, unjust, and irresponsible. So it is not true, as people claim, that God is a God of love and justice. Rather, God is a God of love and righteousness, and the two are not at odds with each other.<\/p>\n<p>But justice and righteousness are at odds with each other. Human history, including biblical history, reveals that when humans call for justice, what they really want is vengeance. But God has said that vengeance is His and He will repay (Deut 32:35; Rom 12:19). And how does God exact vengeance? How does He repay people for the evil they have done? Jesus shows us how. When God sets out to repay people for the sins they have committed, He dies for them. He freely forgives them. This \u201cjustice\u201d of God does not fit any human definition or understanding of justice.<\/p>\n<p>Human justice calls for people to get what they deserve. To be punished in a similar measurement to the pain they have caused others. Divine \u201cjustice\u201d extends only love, grace, mercy, and forgiveness, all of which are the exact opposite of what people deserve. This is why we cannot call it justice. It is righteousness, but it is not justice. It is as Gandhi said, \u201cJustice that love gives is a surrender. Justice that law gives is a punishment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>None of this is to say that injustice does not occur in this world. Quite to the contrary, injustice is everywhere, even (and especially) in the political and religious programs (which often become pogroms) for justice. Our world is awash with injustice. The biblical solution to injustice, however, is not a better form of justice. In the same way that more war is never the answer to war, so also \u201cbetter justice\u201d is never the answer to injustice. Why not? Because all forms of justice lead to greater injustice. In fact, cries for \u201cjustice\u201d often hide the scapegoating mechanism. Scapegoats are never truly seen. If you are able to identify your scapegoat, he or she is not your scapegoat. People think a scapegoat truly is guilty, and therefore, killing or punishing them is not wrong, but is only justice. But scapegoating is always wrong, and scapegoating is always justified. Therefore, both scapegoating and cries for justice must be done away with.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-53168\" src=\"https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/gavel-justice-border_2x-570x321.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"570\" height=\"321\" srcset=\"https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/gavel-justice-border_2x-570x321.jpg 570w, https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/gavel-justice-border_2x-1080x608.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/gavel-justice-border_2x-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/gavel-justice-border_2x-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/gavel-justice-border_2x-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/gavel-justice-border_2x.jpg 1120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So what can we do about injustice? We can follow the way of God. God\u2019s answer to injustice is righteousness. The righteousness of God is based on forgiveness, restoration, reconciliation, and redemption (see <em>Righteousness<\/em>), terms that are not usually related to justice. It is usually not considered \u201cjustice\u201d to forgive the one who wronged you. But it is righteous. It is usually not considered \u201cjustice\u201d to reconcile with the one who hurt you, unless that other person is first forced to make reparations (often unjustly), but reconciliation is righteous. So it incorrect to say that God is a God of love and justice. He is not. God is love (1 John 4:8). God is holy (Isa 6:3). God is righteous but God is not just. And there is a vast difference.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Redeeming God podcast episode contains My thoughts on the election protest,  How to know you have eternal life
