There Was No One (Ephesians 6:10-20)

In other words, according to Isaiah, there was a time when God alone was seeking justice for the weak and the powerless. The author of Ephesians says that the community of the faithful, because of the example of Jesus, needs to take its place alongside God, to put on the same armor God put on all those years before in Israel—not so that we can fight our individual demons, but so that justice will no longer stand at a distance and truth will no longer stumble in the public square.

Paul says that we’re part of the divine Justice League—because justice is precisely what God desires, but what is too often nowhere to be found.
