CRITICAL RACE THEORY – MORE HARM THAN GOOD

Racism, discrimination, and prejudice are a sin issue, it’s not a skin issue. Dividing people up into categories based on how they look and then making them feel bad about themselves or what they perceive has been directed toward them will never truly solve the issue. It’s only a biblical worldview and the true history of the human race and the gospel that give us the answers we need!

You see, from a biblical worldview we understand every person is descended from Adam and Eve and therefore has the same ultimate problem—we’re sinners! Our Spirit was designed to be the lamp of the Lord which requires oil (Holy Spirit) to function as God intended. Adam and Eve lost the Holy Spirit when they disobeyed God and likewise all their descendants. Without the Holy Spirit, it is impossible to live a holy life pleasing to God.

The spirit of man is the lamp of the Lord, searching all his innermost parts.Proverbs 20:27

All the societal evils in this world exist because of sin, not because of diversity in skin shades! And the answer for everyone is the same: salvation through Jesus Christ. When we repent and accept Jesus as our Lord and Saviour, God forgives our sins and sends the Holy Spirit to indwell our spirit to enable us to live a holy life in relationship once again with our Heavenly Father. We are born again by the Holy Spirit.

If we want to address the issue of racism, we must start by understanding the biblical truth that we’re all one race, made in God’s image, but we’re also all sinners who desperately need our Saviour, Jesus Christ!

Oh, and if your church or group would like training on this topic from a biblical worldview, check out the small-group curriculum One Race, One Blood: A Biblical Answer to Racism available from Answers in Genesis. This curriculum starts with God’s Word and is a powerful tool for dealing with this issue.

SOLD OUT TO JESUS; NO TURNING BACK

The story of the song, “I Have Decided to Follow Jesus” is covered in the Book by Dr. P.P. Job “Why God Why“. This story is incredible and shares the results of someone 100% sold out to Jesus Christ, truly born again by the Holy Spirit. You cannot live the Christian life in your own strength. The faith expressed by this man is the faith that will be needed during the coming prophesied tribulation Christians will endure during the last seven years (Daniel 9:24-27) of Daniel’s 70 Weeks Prophecy. The time prior to Jesus’ return, first to rapture the Saints and pour out His wrath on the earth with the Trumpet and Bowl judgements. Both occur after the sixth seal at the trumpet blast that opens the seventh seal.

May everyone who hears this story be inspired to go and do likewise.

Here is a comment from a person from this tribe in North East India, Javies Phaltual:

Hi! Thanks for sharing the story behind the song. First, let me correct you. The missionaries came to North East India, not North India. I am from that region and a descendant of one of the head hunter tribes. But, thanks to the missionaries we are no more head hunters, but fishers of men. It was Watkin R. Roberts who bought the gospel to our tribe. Today, the Wales that sent out such a large group of missionaries have very few numbers of Christians and most of their young generations are lost in the bright darkness of this world. So, join me in your prayers that the gospel be revived again in Wales.
