Bible Question:
Is God a racist? Please I ask? Can he not use whoever he decides to use or send without discrimination or tribalism? What does Jesus and Moses have in common in thier way of life. Deut17:15 refers to a king while 18:15 refers to a prophet, could they be thesame? Be careful not to condemn who the Lord has not condemed. Please i need answers, please. |
Bible Answer: Your question is best answered dirrectly from scripture. Rom 10:11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. Rom 10:12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. Gal 3:29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. Read the book of Galations. Then reread it. then read it again. As I once pondered this question and finally had my eyes opened, so will you. GB |
