Abstract

The issue of justice in economic life is vital today. Christians and churches who are committed to a gospel-centred and holistic process of human development — embracing spiritual, physical and socio-economic well-being — ought to be confident that such a process is entirely consistent with the justice that God desires. This article argues that, unlike ordinary secular human thought, the Bible gives a coherent and harmonious conception of justice in economic life.
