​​Romans‬ â€12:19 & 21‬ says:“Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”
​
This serves to remind us that God is the ultimate judge. We are not. So do we fight for justice? Absolutely Yes! Do we stand up for the poor and oppressed? Absolutely we must! The way we conquer this evil is by doing good!
​
One day God will right every wrong! He HAS righted every wrong! Because of JESUS, every sin, every mistake, and every painful action has been paid for, because He PAID it with his life!
​
Jesus will return! This means that evil has an end date! The righteous anger of God WILL have its full effect! But in the meantime, as His Church, let’s follow Jesus’ example, by showing HIS love, teaching HIS mercy and HIS forgiveness, and bringing HIS healing that only HE can provide by bringing HIS word to those who are oppressed and broken because THIS is what God has shown us! We know that God is at work!
He invites his people to partner with him in that work. If you are feeling called to partner with us in this work whether it’s volunteering or giving, we have forms available on the "donate" page and the "get involved" page.
