Bryan Osborne’s Woke Injustice: Exposing the Unbiblical Claims of Social Justice

What does social justice really mean? As Bryan Osborne, author of Woke Injustice: A Biblical Response to Critical Race Theory, reveals, many Christians are unknowingly embracing ideas rooted in unbiblical ideologies. By equipping yourself with the truth, you can respond biblically to the claims of modern social justice movements.

In The Princess Bride, the character Inigo Montoya famously says, “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.” Similarly, today’s terms like "justice," "equity," "diversity," and "anti-racism" can sound biblical but often mean something entirely different in the context of Critical Race Theory (CRT).

CRT, an evolved form of Marxism, operates as an entire worldview that classifies everyone into categories of oppressed or oppressor based on identity factors like skin color. Unlike biblical justice, which centers on personal actions and accountability, CRT views societal structures as inherently oppressive, demanding systemic overhaul rather than individual transformation.

For example:

• Justice: In CRT, justice isn’t about fairness under God’s law. Instead, it focuses on redistributing resources and power from “oppressors” to “oppressed” groups.
• Equity: This isn’t equal opportunity but rather forced equal outcomes, often achieved through government intervention and socialism.
• Ending Racism: CRT redefines this as dismantling all societal institutions deemed “systemically racist.” As CRT proponent Ibram X. Kendi writes, “The only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination.”

CRT’s ideology fosters division, not unity. Rooted in Marxism, it perpetuates conflict by presuming oppression in all relationships and institutions. As a result, CRT not only misrepresents justice but also practices actual injustice to achieve its goals.

Christians often adopt CRT’s language and solutions, thinking they align with Scripture. But when these ideas infiltrate homes, churches, and relationships, the results are brokenness and injustice—not reconciliation.

Osborne’s Woke Injustice equips believers to see through CRT’s deceptive facade. He encourages Christians to reject unbiblical ideologies and instead pursue biblical justice, which brings true reconciliation and unity.

Key Takeaways:

• Discern Language: Understand that CRT redefines terms like “justice” and “equity” in ways that conflict with Scripture.
• Combat Division: Recognize CRT’s divisive nature and reject its solutions in favor of biblical truth.
• Equip Yourself: Learn to identify and respond to the influence of CRT in your community with wisdom and Scripture.

Bryan Osborne’s Woke Injustice is a must-read for Christians seeking to navigate today’s social justice rhetoric with clarity and biblical conviction. Equip yourself, your family, and your church to discern truth and stand firm against the unbiblical claims of CRT. In this episode of the Master Books podcast, Bryan answers questions about this topic and how to address the misinformation that arises in families and culture.
