Equals!

For Thursday, August 6, 2020.

Galatians 3:28 NLT: “There is no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male and female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus.” 

Paul and the Holy Spirit battled over this principle with early church leaders. There was a time when ALL followers of Jesus had come out of the Jewish faith. But now the Good News was drawing Gentiles to Jesus, and early churches were full of people who knew nothing of Jewish tradition.

Paul teaches that it’s all good! Your race doesn’t matter, your previous religion doesn’t matter, your social stature doesn’t matter and your gender doesn’t matter. Paul teaches that Christ welcomes ALL believers as equals!

This is Good News! This means that EVERYONE has a shot at salvation – no exclusions! If you confess your sin and call Jesus Lord and Savior of your life, he’ll hold your reservation to spend eternity in the presence of God! Believers get to see heaven from the inside!

Blessings and safety to all today!
