How does the gospel change what we would call unjust and oppressive structures and systems? We are often (understandably) frustrated with the social and cultural prescriptions we find in the Bible. If the only the thing Bible gave us was a prescription, then it would be hopelessly out of date for any other age. But the Bible gives us something much better. Embedded in the prescriptions for that age, are principles for every age. When we learn to see, understand, and apply the principles, we find the gospel has power to bring deep lasting change to the world.
