Victory for Justice
9 I have thought deeply about all that goes on here under the sun, where people have the power to hurt each other. 10 I have seen wicked people buried with honor. Yet they were the very ones who frequented the Temple and are now praised in the same city where they committed their crimes! This, too, is meaningless. 11 When a crime is not punished quickly, people feel it is safe to do wrong. 12 But even though a person sins a hundred times and still lives a long time, I know that those who fear God will be better off. 13 The wicked will not prosper, for they do not fear God. Their days will never grow long like the evening shadows.
Ecclesiastes 8:9-13
What’s one of your supreme dislikes?
This one might be in your top three: injustice…when the wicked seem to flourish.
See those whose moral compass is set at permanent malfunction?
They seem able to repeat evil deeds and never suffer consequences.
Some even receive world honor.
At times, we feel justice has become extinct, vanished never to return.
The wisest man in world history gives his knowledge centered view on injustice:
God wins.
HE loves justice.
Righteousness and justice are the pillars of His throne.
What seemed like the greatest injustice brought justice for all.
See Jesus on the cross.
