Synopsis

If God is love, then how do we make sense of the evil we see everywhere in the world?

In What If Jesus Was Serious about Justice?, Skye Jethani explores what the Bible really says about God's restorative justice and how he punishes evil and rewards good.

Jethani examines the biblical understanding of justice as the restoration of right relationships both among people and between people and God. He considers themes of judgment and mercy in Jesus's ministry and explains Jesus's warnings about God's final judgment of those opposed to his kingdom of justice.

Listeners will emerge with a better understanding of God's love, wrath, the cross, eternity, and more. In addition, Christians will find new ways to bridge the divide in the church over the importance of personal salvation and communal justice.

4.5. A highly accessible guide to justice. Jethani carefully unpacks the biblical view of God's judgment and mercy, showing that many traditional depictions of God's wrath are extra biblical at best, unbiblical at worst. He also exposes the warped view of penal substitutionary atonement that is preva......more

Goodreads review by Mike on May 22, 2025

This is another decent entry in the series. I’ve read each of Skye’s books in this “What if” series. The first, where he applies the sermon on the mount to today, remains the best. This one was in the middle somewhere. As a daily devotional, it works well. Some of essays got a little repetitive, part......more

You need to read this if you think God is happy about all the anti-DEI rhetoric going on right now. He’s not.......more
