(Galatians 6:15 NKJV) For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creation.
When we are “in Christ”, it doesn’t matter if we’re white, black, Asian, Indian, Malaysian, Hispanic, Filipino or any other race, color or ethnic background. It doesn’t matter if we’re rich, poor or somewhere in between.
When we are in Christ, we are a new creation, period. Our spiritual condition is not changed by our heritage, our family background or our ethnicity. Once we have been born again, we are just that… born again!
What we have done in our past is now washed away by the blood of Jesus. God has no concerns where we are from or who our parents are. He doesn’t stop and do a background check on us to see if we’re worthy of salvation!
As believers… followers of Christ, we NEED to set aside racial preferences. We NEED to put away discrimination, regardless of who it is against. We NEED to stop disrespecting people because of where they are from OR preferring them because of their color, race or ethnic background.
Racism is not of God. PERIOD. Racism flies in the face of our creator and mocks the One who died for us, insinuating that His death was only for a certain few “chosen” people.
If we are true followers of Christ we will NEVER let race, skin color, ethnic background or anything similar change our minds about anyone.
