Race, What is it All About?

by | Nov 1, 2020 | Sermons

11/01/2020 – Sunday Morning Service

Ephesians 2:11-22

Sermon Topics

– “What does God say about us?” and “Do we believe what God says about us is Sufficient?”
– Many issues regarding Race are because our Sociology has replaced our Theology.
– I believe in Racial Reconciliation. Why? Because I believe in the Word of God.

  1. It Begins with Disunity
    • There is BUT one Race; we all have the same ORIGINAL parents.
    • If God can reconcile that which is real, and God ordained distinctions between them; He can certainly reconcile people who have arbitrary and artificial distinctions between them.
    • Having NO hope and being WITHOUT God is far worse than anything you can imagine.
  2. It Ends with Unity
    • You, through the Blood of Jesus Christ, who used to be WAY back there, have now been brought NEAR!
    • The Blood of Jesus Christ is the only way to experience Reconciliation of ANY kind.
    • We are no longer just putting down our arms and deciding to stop fighting one another, we BECOME one another.
    • Because Blood may be thicker than water, but it is NOT stronger than the Cross.
    • The Gentiles need the Blood of Christ and the Cross of Christ to be reconciled to God, and SO DID the Jews.
    • What you have now is better than what you did not have then.
    • It is not something you and I have to Achieve; it is something you and I have to Believe!
