Bible Question: WE ARE A WHITE FAMILY THAT ADOPTED A BLACK BOY. I GET A LOT OF PEOPLE SAYING IT IS WRONG. I WANT TO KNOW WHERE IN THE BIBLE IT SAYS IT IS WRONG AND THAT BLACK PEOPLE ARE NOT HUMAN BEINGS BUT ANIMALS? |
Bible Answer: Dear Marcel, I pray the following is helpful. Galatians 3:26-29: 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 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. 29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. "For ye are all one in Christ Jesus - You are all equally accepted through the Lord Jesus Christ; or you are all on the same level, and entitled to the same privileges in your Christian profession. Bond and free, male and female, Jew and Greek, are admitted to equal privileges, and are equally acceptable before God. And the church of God, no matter what may be the complexion, the country, the habits, or the rank of its members, is one. Every man, on whom is the image and the blood of Christ, is a brother to every other one who bears that image, and should be treated accordingly. What an influence would be excited in the breaking up of the distinctions of rank and caste among people; what an effect in abolishing the prejudice on account of color and country, if this were universally believed and felt!" - Albert Barnes Stand in His grace, WOS |
