Amos 5:23–24: Take away the noise of your songs; I won’t listen to the melody of your harps. But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream...”If our justice ain’t right, our worship’s all wrong!” - @DJacks1123
"We can't claim to be living in a love relationship with the God of creation while refusing to love those created in the image of God. The biblical test for love of God is love of neighbor." - @DJacks1123
