Believe it or not Jesus Christ was a social activist. His gospel was not offensive because it excluded some, but that it was all inclusive. His three year ministry is a well balanced account of restoration and the quest for social justice for the subjugated and down trodden in society. Social justice is based on the concepts of human rights and equality and can be defined as the way in which human rights are manifested in the everyday lives of people at every level of society. As such, the Word of God should not only prepare us for heaven, but it should also make us relevant to the marginalized and ostracized. How can we extend the sanctuary to beyond the church walls and ensure that we bring about the much sought after change in society? How can we be social activist and Christian?
