| Summary: | Relief from the vast debt due to racial injustice associated with slavery requires prophetic intervention and interactions concerning reparations such as Jesus took with Zacchaeus. Those interventions and interactions require that prophetic people reject “rich ruler” religon, and not view the beneficiaries of the racial injustices associated with slavery as moral monsters incapable of repentance. The issue is whether followers of Jesus trust God to do through us concerning reparations for racial injustice what God did through Jesus with Zacchaeus. |
