John 13:35 (NKJV) 35 By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
We are to love one another.
Jesus commanded us to do so. We are to show the love of God to those around us, believer and non-believer.
Love disarms evil. It melts hardened hearts. It brings unity where there was division. And it draws people to God, instead of repelling them and pushing them away.
Proverbs 10:12 (NKJV) 12 Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all sins.
Love crosses international borders. It crosses cultural barriers. And love doesn’t see a person’s race or skin color.
We were all created equal by God Himself. It doesn’t mater where we’re from or what ethnicity we are. God expects us to love one another.
Skin color is just that; color.
It doesn’t, and shouldn’t, make us who we are. It should not dictate our preferences for friends, social status or political allegiance.
The color of our skin should not be something that we look at apart from the word of God. We are to love each other without ever looking at the color of someone’s skin.
Do you have racial prejudice inside you? Even just a tiny bit? Does the color of a person’s skin cause you to think of them a certain way, or do you simply see them through the eyes of God and love them?
This is a hard question and a very tough topic. But God wants it addressed.
So we ask you to let God examine your heart and show you if it is truly unbiased or if you’re harboring any kind of racism in it?
Love one another, regardless of the color of one’s skin.
By this the world will know that you are His disciples, if you have love for one another.
