"... with liberty and justice for all" - So ends The Pledge of Allegiance to the U.S. flag. On this Independence Day weekend, we face the question of justice from a short a story about a snake coming out of a fire and attaching to Paul's hand. The Maltese islanders in Acts 28:1-6 had a fairly simple view of justice that the gods will bring it about in a timely manner. Suffering and death must be judgment for specific sin or crime. Lack of such hardship is evidence of your goodness. But life isn't that way. Why the righteous suffer and the wicked prosper is a question of the ages, but it has clarity in God's Word. We'll have to stray a bit from our text to get there but it sends us out for answers that only God can satisfactorily address. Join us for "The Island" from Acts 28:1-6.
