Social justice
“Social justice may be broadly understood as the fair and compassionate distribution of the fruits of economic growth. Social justice is not possible without strong and coherent redistributive policies conceived and implemented by public agencies.”
"The UN report goes on to insist that: “Present-day believers in an absolute truth identified with virtue and justice are neither willing nor desirable companions for the defenders of social justice.”
- Translation: if you believe truth and justice are concepts independent of the agenda of the forces of progress as defined by the left, you are an enemy of social justice." JONAH GOLDBERG
| Comments |
| "Social costs"[1] can be examined in economics but aso in society itself. Society is often "An association or company of persons united together by mutual consent..." but may be merely "the people in general". |
"Social costs" in the kingdom model are easier to calculate. Since the economy is substantive and real time without usury there is little dependence on debt and therefore less "market failure". Secondly, because the power of governing remains divided within the hands of the individual under basic property rights the ideas of government intervention to regulate is already on the head of every individual people must make "rational" choices for their actions since they will pay the consequences of their action.
|
| This was not done through an invented currency which would be in violation of the warnings about the Golden calf and One purse. The monetary system of the original Common Law and the law of nature and nature's God always depends on present value or some form of Commodity money. To create an unlicensed exchange is a crime in most States. |
Then there is the matter of Social Justice which is often defined as:
|
| Early Israel and the early Church were also pure Republics, what Tacitus called Libera Res Publica, where the people were free from things public and the leaders were not rulers because they were titular. |
| They organized themselves in a network of free assemblies by Tens which was the purpose of feast gatherings like Pentecost. |
| The Temples and Altars had a purpose. |
| People covet those benefits provided by the Fathers of earth and are entangled in the yoke of bondage. |
| * What did Rome have in common with the world today? |
| * What are the two types of government welfare? |
| * Were the Levites the church in the wilderness? |
| * What did the Levites and the early Church have in common? |
Socrates (through Plato's dialogue Crito) developed the idea of a social contract, whereby people are expected to follow the rules of a society, and accept its burdens because they have accepted its benefits. This means the more benefits one receives from society the more burdens one will be expected to endure. If the benefits are provided through force by way of taxation then the burdens will be imposed by the same force through the power of the State. If the benefits are provided by way of charity through freewill offerings then the obligations to society will also be performed through freewill choice. In that simple truth, we may see why The Way of Christ sets men free and all other ways brings man back into bondage.
If "Justice is, for Plato, at once a part of human virtue and the bond, which joins man together in society" then "Justice is an order and duty of the parts of the soul, it is to the soul as health is to the body."[2] The soul of society becomes the soul of Cain. You, may at any time, choose to go the way of Cain, Nimrod, Pharaoh or Caesar which will alter your soul and the soul of society to which you cling or you may repent and go The Way of Christ seeking the kingdom of God and his righteousness through which you will be born again.
If you believe that it is okay to force your neighbor to provide for your benefit through the power of the State then by reciprocation through a continuation of that precept it is also okay for the State to impose obligations and duties upon all of society. That too is social justice.
The early Church and the early Christian society shared a common communion through fervent charity and the Eucharist of Christ. They were not only excluded from the benefits of those of those benefactors who exercised authority, those "Fathers of the earth", for conscience sake but eventually they were barred by legal constraints. The Mark of the beast is a test of the resolve of the soul for those who do not receive it but also for those who have.
Capitalism does not need to lead to a "few rich oligarchs" if the people remain generally moral. Among a basically moral people who do not covet their neighbors' good and actively care about their neighbor as much as themselves, there is no threat of an oligarchy taking control.
Socialism requires the same general moral people who care about others, but such people would have no need for socialism because they would already be sharing what they produce through systems of charity without the exercising of authority as a collective. Without a moral people who care about their neighbor's rights to their own production, a socialist system becomes a nation of tyrants where the mob takes away the rights of others and the people become weaker, with laziness and self-indulgence in their lifestyle. http://www.preparingyou.com/wiki/Socialism
Social justice supposedly assigns rights and duties in the institutions of society, which enables people to receive the basic benefits and burdens of cooperation, but in the kingdom of God the distribution is based on moral criteria in order to produce a fruitful outcome. This is a duty of Religion, and to make it Pure Religion you must distribute the true needs of the individual by the individual for the intrinsic benefit for the individual, while attending to the weightier matters including the use of good judgment and mercy with diligent and persistent faith.
But a more selfish and arrogant "social warrior" imagines the relevant institutions created often include taxation, compelled social insurance, public health, public school, and public services financed by that taxation ... and debt. They imagine that these covetous practices used to ensure fair distribution of wealth, and equal opportunity, are their salvation. Polybius makes it clear that such patterns in society corrupts society. Peter says it will make you merchandise and curse children.
In the review of the book "Human Rights versus Legal Rights: why the church must separate from the state", part two of the four-part series deals with social cost and social justice.

Is Social justice a form of public religion?
Is a belief in Social justice and those who enforce it a belief in strange gods?
Belief in God
The question "Do you Believe in God?" creates at least two more questions that must be answered first.
What do you mean by "belief"?
What do you mean by "God"?
Without a clear answer to those two questions, there may be no honestly true answer to the first.
So, everyone has a Believe about Jesus but how do we know who has a belief in Jesus, His Father and the Holy Spirit He send as a comforter to us?
How do we know them that truly believe?[3] Who are true believers?
One of the first questions that must be answered to come to an honest discussion of God and belief is "What is religion?"
Today we commonly think that religion is what we think about God or a supreme being. But that is not the original definition. Religion was ir centuries and at the time of Christ a "duty to God and our fellowman". That duty included the actions of love both for God and our neighbor and even the stranger and our enemy. For a Christian, the question should be "What is Pure Religion?"
For centuries "divine law" or "divine will" was defined as "right reason". Mankind was supposedly made in the image of God but it appears that many people have chosen to remake God in their own image or at least in their imagination. This has been done in the name of religion but again what is the meaning of Religion. This imagined God or Jesus is the essence of idolatry. It is also at the core of all the evil or wickedness or iniquity done in the name of religion. Without a willingness to critically look at the whole gospel of the kingdom the whole world may be deceived and brought under a strong delusion.
Most Atheists simply rename the gods of their life but they still believe there is a need for something greater than themselves. Socialism is the religion you get when you have no Pure Religion.
Those who are willing to use religious terms see the universe as created by someone identified as God who is even called the "Creator".[4] That "Divine Creator" built into creation a Divine pattern of "cause and effect" with uniformity throughout the observable universe.
It is clear that "God" or a "god" is someone or something greater than ourselves. If religion is how you perform your duty to that "God" or "gods" and your fellowman and pure religion is performing that duty to your fellow man through love and charity rather than the force. ear, and fealty required in the socialist State then there are a lot of modern Christians who say they believe in God but remain workers of iniquity.
Understanding why Christ commanded the His student ministers to organize the people in patterns of tens before there was to be a distribution of the loaves and fishes made available by sharing through charity may call us to a better comprehension of the importance of fervent charity in the practice of Pure Religion. That of course would be true repentance.
Some Questions
- What was the bondage of Egypt, and why were we to never go back there again?
- Have people given consent to a social compact that might enslave them, like in the days of Egypt?
- Why would the slothful be under tribute?
- Why did the Corban of the Pharisees make the word of God to none effect?
- Why did Jesus say "Call no man Father upon the earth"?
- Why did Jesus say not to be like the rulers who called themselves Benefactors?
- Why did Peter say covetous practices would make us Merchandise and curse children?
- What did Jesus list off as the Weightier matters?
- Why did Jesus command that the people sit down in Tens?
- What is Religion and what is Pure Religion?
- What was Public religion and the imperial Cult of Rome? How did it differ from Pure Religion practiced by early Christians?
- Why did the Church have a Daily ministration?
- How do the Modern Christians differ from the early Church who followed The Way of Christ?
- What were the deeds of the Nicolaitans, and why did God hate those deeds?
- What was the Christian conflict with Rome?
- Are modern Christians actually workers of iniquity?
- Do people today make covenants with the gods of this world because they love the wages of unrighteousness?
- What is the difference between the Baptism of John the Baptist and the Baptism of Herod or Constantine or Rabbinical Baptism?
- Israel was not to have a golden calf but what did that mean?
- What were the altars of earth and stone?
- What are lively stones?
- Was the Sabbath a way or a day?
More Questions
- Were those rituals of ancient societies merely mindless acts of superstition, or were they metaphors?
- What are the rituals of the Church, and do they point to The Way of Christ and God?
- Could Welfare systems of the world be Snares and Traps?
- And what does this all have to do with Nimrod, Cain and Caesar who called themselves Benefactors but exercise authority one over the other?
- What was the Mark of Cain and the Mark of God and even the Mark of the Beast?
- Did Constantine start a different Church not of Christ?
- Why did the people have to sew Breeches for the Levites?
- What was early Israel like before the Voice of the people rejected God?
- Why were they organized by Tens?
- How was the Early Church funded, and what did they use the funds for?
- Did it operate by force or Freewill offerings?
- Do all governments of the world operate according to the ways of God?
- Or do they operate according to the ways of Cain and Nimrod?
- Who were the Nicolaitans, and what did they do that included the error of Balaam, and why does God hate their deeds?
- What was Christ trying to tell us about the Fathers of the earth and who are they?
- And who is The Beloved Anarchist?
- What do you want to do about all this?
To find the answers, we must seek and strive to do what Jesus said the way He said to do it... Including attending to the Weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith which include caring for the needs of our neighbors and the widows and orphans of our society through Pure Religion in matters of health, education, and welfare. We are NOT to provide for the needy of society through the Covetous Practices and the men who call themselves benefactors but who exercise authority one over the other like the socialists do.
The Way of Christ was like neither the way of the world of Rome nor the governments of the gentiles who depend on those fathers of the earth through force, fear and fealty who deliver the people back in bondage again like they were in Egypt. Christ's ministers and true Christians do not depend upon systems of social welfare that force the contributions of the people like the corban of the Pharisees which made the word of God to none effect. Many people have been deceived to go the way of Balaam and the Nicolaitan and out of The Way of Christ and have become workers of iniquity.
The Christian conflict with Rome in the first century Church appointed by Christ was because they would not apply to the fathers of the earth for their free bread but instead relied upon a voluntary network providing a daily ministration to the needy of society through Faith, Hope, and Charity by way of freewill offerings of the people, for the people, and by the people through the perfect law of liberty in Free Assemblies according to the ancient pattern of Tuns or Tens as He commanded.
The modern Christians are in need of repentance.

- ↑ Social cost in economics may be distinguished from "private cost". ... Social cost is also considered to be the private cost plus externalities. Rational choice theory often assumes that individuals consider only the costs they themselves bear when making decisions, not the costs that may be borne by others.
