    Basically its the concept that the Church must address the social injustices in society, its not the Gospel that we need to be saved out of our sins, but more that we must get restitution for past evils done of us,,,,
    Like for example slavery here in USA, would tend to see it as we must right all past wrongs committed against us, and not really the Gospel of Christ, but of social justice now!

    I think the Lord covered the false doctrine of Social Justice perfectly in his chat with Peter.

    Matthew 18:21-22

    21) Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?
    22) Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

    Is not our unmerited mercy and eternal life with the Master, more than we could ever deserve?
    Why is that not sufficient for these "Christians"?

    is not the cause of slavery due to sinners hearts, and so only real cure was to have a new heart, like a John Newton?
