Bible Verses About Civil Rights
Justice for All
We are called to uphold justice for everyone. Justice is central to our Christian faith and leads us towards a more equitable society. The Bible teaches us to examine our hearts and our actions toward others, ensuring that we treat everyone fairly, no matter their background. We recognize that every person is created in the image of God, and thus, deserves respect and dignity. This includes standing up against oppression and fighting for those who cannot fight for themselves. We embrace the understanding that justice reflects God’s character and calls us to a higher standard in how we relate to one another.
