Racism

We all are covered by the same Christ, we are all one in Christ. It's in the Bible, Galatians 3:26-28, "For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus."

Racism is a sin. It's in the Bible, James 2:8-9, NIV. "If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, 'Love your neighbor as yourself,' you are doing right. But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as lawbreakers."

All men have the same blood. It's in the Bible, Acts 17:26, KJV. "And has made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth."

We are not to think of ourselves more highly than others. It's in the Bible, Romans 12:3, NKJV. "For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith."

We will be judged on how we treat others, for how we treat others is how we would treat Jesus. It's in the Bible, Matthew 25:40, NKJV. "And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’"

God accepts people from every race, culture and nation. It's in the Bible, Acts 10:34,35, NIV. "Then Peter began to speak: 'I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts men from every nation who fear Him and do what is right.'"

God's place of worship is to be a gathering for all nations. It's in the Bible, Mark 11:17, NKJV. "Then He taught, saying to them, “Is it not written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations’? But you have made it a ‘den of thieves.’

The gospel is for every person in the world. It's in the Bible, Revelation 14:6, NIV. "Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth—to every nation, tribe, language and people."

In Heaven, we all will worship the Lord together. It's in the Bible, Isaiah 66:22, NIV.  "As the new heavens and the new earth that I make will endure before me," declares the LORD, "so will your name and descendants endure. From one New Moon to another and from one Sabbath to another, all mankind will come and bow down before me," says the LORD."
