Bible Note: Yeah, prejudice wasn't Jesus' message. Look at how He electrified the Samaritan woman at the well (Joh 4.5-42). But wasn't she ripe for the harvest? Not everyone has ears to hear, apparently. As He said: "No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him..." (Joh 6:44). To all religions our Christian witness has to be like Paul's: "For I determined to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified." (1 Cor 2.2) This attitude buries prejudice. I don't say that from experience, but from the desire to have this attitude someday. I don't yet have the guts for it. Colin. |
