World Assembly 2023 Evening Plenary: Justice - Vinoth Ramachandra

Have you heard Vinoth Ramachandra’s thought-provoking talk about justice at World Assembly 2023?
💥 “Early Christian theologians, the Church Fathers, challenged the absolutist understandings of wealth and property that undergirded Roman law.
They taught that if I have food in my house that I don't need for my survival, but my next-door neighbour is starving, then the food in my house belongs to him and his family, and not to me. If he breaks in and takes that food, he is not stealing. It is I who commit theft – as long as I refuse to share it with them. Because the right to life trumps the right to private property.
My friends, this is not Marxism. This is traditional Christian theology which we have forgotten.”
Hear him unpack the biblical vision for justice and what that means for us. Listen to the full talk in this podcast.
