One of the values we hold dear as the Alliance of Baptists is our shared mission to "pursue justice with and for those who are oppressed." We are a people who take the prophetic Word to heart: to "seek justice, rescue the oppressed" (Isaiah 1:17); "to do justice" (Micah 6:8); and to "hate evil and love good, and establish justice..." (Amos 5:15)
As followers of Jesus and as local congregations who bear his name, we trust deep down that God's love for us and our love for God is inextricably tied to our commitment to, and passion for justice.
