Christ's message to this world to love God and love our fellow human beings are not idle suggestions. Social inequity and economic injustice are not rational or efficient or justifiable no matter what sort of pseudo-religious, mathematical gobbledygook modern-day secular authorities come up with to believe in the righteousness of their wrongfulness. And if a society, or a civilization, opts to go against their Creator's will, instruments of corrective chastisement emerge on the historical stage to hold people to account.
It's just the way it is.
God's Kingdom is near, but not in the way man plans.
"Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.
By myself I have sworn, my mouth has uttered in all integrity a word that will not be revoked: Before me every knee will bow; by me every tongue will swear.
They will say of me, 'In the LORD alone are righteousness and strength.' "All who have raged against him will come to him and be put to shame.
But in the LORD all the descendants of Israel will be found righteous and will exult.
(Isaiah 45:22-25)
