Ferguson is a Gospel issue. Yes, it’s a justice issue and a race issue. But it’s a Gospel issue. Now, if you have a tamed and domesticated Gospel tuned into your particular moral litmus test issues, you won’t see this. But St. Paul did. For St. Paul, the core of the Gospel was about reconciliation – God and sinner, Jew and Greek, male and female, slave and free (Gal. 3:28). This was the necessary implication of justification by faith alone. Justification was never simply a get out of jail free card, an individualistic guilt-appeasement balm. Justification opens the gates to freedom, to reconciliation, to wholeness inside and out.
