(Gal 3:28 NKJV) 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.
Have you ever encountered racial prejudice? I live in an area of the world where racial prejudice isn’t a major thing. That’s not to say that it doesn’t happen, but it doesn’t happen to a very large degree.
Some areas of the world are worse than others. And regardless of whether it’s a small amount of prejudice or a big amount, it’s still prejudice and it’s very wrong.
Sadly, prejudice isn’t restricted to unbelieving people. There is racial prejudice INSIDE the body of Christ. This is a sin against God. He has created each and every one of us, regardless of what color our skin is or what nationality we are. If we are believers then we are all one in Christ.
There are no exceptions. God’s word is very plain about this. So if you still struggle with being prejudice against people because of the color of their skin or their racial heritage, I want to encourage you today to get before God and repent. Ask Him to forgive you and to give you a new heart for people of other races.
Don’t favor one race over another… ever. We are all created in God’s image and Jesus Christ died for the black man, the white man and the Arabian man just as much as He died for the Turkish man, the Asian man or the Jamaican man.
Love God’s people just as God loves you!
