Ok. I really cannot give a definition as it was not spelled out. I was reading the Aquila Report and there was this article on a new ecumenical group with summary bullets of its core values. I will link the article further down. The social justice point was number 6; though the writer of the article place it at the front of the article. Some sees it as positive in that denominations are getting together, instead of para-church groups.

Anyway, back to social justice. I could be very wrong, but I think it is about Christians being involved in correcting societal inequities as we have with abortion and homosexual rights. Whether or not they mean through supporting governmental action I cannot say. They quote Matthew 25 as the proof text, which I do not think teaches social justice. I just see a huge problem when Christians take up trying to make society better. It seems that replaces in emphasis the gospel message itself. I realize it doesn't have to be that way, but it always does.

Here is the article - http://theaquilareport.com/christian-leaders-cross-denominational-lines/

One other small item. They use the word 'truthful' instead of 'inerrant'. I don't like that.
