Racism. It is wrong. Period.

RACISM

                                                 The way we treat people matters!
                                                   It is the testimony of our hearts. 

Acts 17:26  "...and He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation,"

Proverbs 24:23  "These also are sayings of the wise To show partiality in judgment is not good."

Ephesians 4:29-32  " Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you."

James 2:9  "But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors."

Racism is wrong. Period. 

Let's all pray this prayer from the Psalms this week. May we search our hearts and see if there is anything we do to cause a person to be less than they were intended to be by God.

Psalm 139:23-24

Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
Point out anything in me that offends you,
and lead me along the path of everlasting life.
Amen
