We are not all White. Part 2

One of my Christian Gurus, Randy Harris, starts most of his talks by saying,  "18 to 25 year olds are not in church." They don't relate.  THEY are our kids!


We are still living and teaching as if Jesus was a "white guy" and not a Jew.  We act as if the world we live in wants to be white and wants our western values, because WE are THE Christian nation.  But we need to stop every once in a while and say, "When the world sees us do they see CHRIST?"

Our approach to subjects is still a condemnation teaching (couched in our politics!) and not from compassion and care.  The tendency is compassion counts in storms but to in giving to the poor.


WE are not all white in the Kingdom of God.  " Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens but fellow citizens with GOD's people and members of GOD's household........"  Ephesians 2:19
