“Social justice is not an end. It is a means. For those of you who study history, you know that over the past few centuries the church that saw social justice as an end and not a means drifted from its original focus. It drifted from the unique saving work of Christ. It drifted from the spiritual lostness of sinners. It drifted from the authority of the Bible. It drifted from the imperative of world evangelism. We need to learn from history that we must love the world in word and deed, and in loving we shall not drift from our deeply held convictions.”
