I hear people talking about injustice all the time! The Lord Jesus experienced injustice daily and had the ability to snap His fingers and correct every injustice in the world, but He didn't! Why??
The Bible talks about a woman incessantly petitioning a judge about injustice in: Luke 18:8 "I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?"
What we don't see is God's plan to work through us in order to get others to see the error of their own ways. If everyone is beaten into correction, then the LAW rules, and there's no room for faith. If people must be abused, shamed, demoralized, and shunned because of their personal sins, then grace is not needed.
So if the world is ruled by the law when Jesus returns, then who will Jesus take with Him to Heaven? Maybe the law helps us take the focus off of our self. Singer David Crowder said it best; "Afflictions eclipsed by glory".
