Justice in society?

Question

Can preachers preach against sin when they are sinning?
(No-one is perfect or can be, all sin is wrong, unintentional or not)

Can lawmakers condemn people to die for crimes when they are criminals? (May not have killed someone, or physically cheated, but cheated mentally by lusting and lying with other women in their hearts etc)

Can parents punish kids for doing wrong? (Parents are imperfect, and sent imperfect examples. Why punish the kid if the parents are still doing wrong)

Where is justice? Who can judge another? (Judge not lest ye be judged)

Why are people quick to say he or she deserves to die for this crime (when they have commited as bad or worse)

Think, if you believe the bible, the woman that Jesus protected from accusers (Is any without sin? Preacher, lawmaker, parent? Let them cast the first stone)

No-one casted a stone.

HELPPPPPP!!!!

Why have justice if there is no justice? Why have laws if we can't obey? Why demand perfection if we always fall short.

WE R DOOMED

Answer 1

There is no justice in this world, only hypocrisy and double standards.

Answer 2

We live in an imperfect world. Most of our law makers are twisting the Constitution for their own agenda!
We are all sinful people with our own concepts. But our concepts are sick, ever since the fall!
However, God provided a way out from our sinful nature. Acts 2:38 says that we can be forgiven for our sins by baptism in the Name of Jesus. We go down into the water with our sinful behavior, and when we come out of the water, we are new creatures in Christ. Without the burden of sin. It is the second best High known to man. The greatest High that lasts for years is the infilling of the Holy Ghost, and we know that we have that when we speak inan unknown language! When I got it, I was floating on a cloud for Days!!!
It can be yours also. God is waiting for you. The gift is all wrapped and waiting to be delivered. It is up to you. Acts 2:38!! Jesus loves you and wants to show you how much He does!!

Answer 3

If there was no justice in the world, just think what it would b like.
so, even if the people who enforce justice on earth are not perfect, we have to go with second best.

I am a Christian and I believe that if everyone would accept God as their ruler, there would b no need for any other people to judge and rule use, because God would be our ruler.

But people have been this way since the time of the Bible. The Israelites were not happy with God as their king, they wanted to have a physical ruler/god. That is why, in the story of Moses...after the led the Israelites from Egypt, they started worshiping the golden calf, just as soon as Moses was away.

Then a bit later, they looked at other tribes and people, and they saw "Wow! those ppl have a man who rules over them, they can actually see him, we want that!" . So they complained and moaned to God " we want a man as our king, like all those other ppl"

So God said, "fine, Ill give you a king, Saul, but ull have to take what ever comes along with it". Cos God knew that no human being is perfect, that having one as king, instead of following God as king would cause a lot of trouble.But God has always given us a choice to follow Him or not, and it was what the people wanted.....

This is an example of how we humans work, we dont want to follow some invisible God, we want to see and hear. And we are still like this today! This is why other people, other sinners are in charge today.

BUT, if you do follow God. What is there to complain about? I mean, you dont do anything wrong, so you wont be judged by sinners; you dont follow the preacher in Church like a god, hes just a narrator of the Bible, you follow what the Holy sport tells you in your heart, what God tels you in the Bible. So there should be no problem letting the preacher do his job.

in my opinion, I dont need to worry about the injustices of others....of the ones in charge...because I follow God and no other.

HOWEVER this does not mean that I ignor the law, in the Bible, the Pharisees asked Jesus "If God is our ruler, then why should we pay taxes to Caesar?" they wanted to catch Jesus out. But He answered them and said " Who's face do you see on this coin? Pay the money to the man it belongs to."

In this Jesus told us to obey the law, even though God is our ruler. I follow God and if God tells me to obey the law, I obey God by obeying the law, and the sinners in charge because their sin is theirs and not mine...it will be dealt with.

Answer 4

You have a point here.
"Why have justice if there is no justice"

I think the major problem is the lack of education. That's it. Education.

Answer 5

If we wait for perfect people to dispense perfect justice, we will descend into chaos. It is unfortunate, but we have no choice.

Answer 6

let he who is without sin cast the first stone

Answer 7

Can Christians be boastfull and condescending towards others when their theology warns against pride?

Answer 8

The answer to most of your questions is yes. We do not need perfection, unattainable, good enough will do.

Answer 9

Who's "we"?
