1
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:04,900
Good morning. 
It's good to see you all were 

2
00:00:04,900 --> 00:00:10,500
here and we have a lot of young 
children here this morning as 

3
00:00:10,500 --> 00:00:12,200
well. 
So I'm looking forward to the 

4
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:16,400
competition. 
So anyway, I really appreciate 

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:21,000
their their, full-throated 
singing, and it's wonderful to 

6
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,600
hear children singing in the 
audience. 

7
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,700
It really is. 
And, and just, as parents are 

8
00:00:28,700 --> 00:00:31,000
proud to hear their children 
sing. 

9
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:35,200
So, is everyone else? 
And that's great. 

10
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:39,200
It's good to see all those who 
are here this morning this 

11
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:43,300
morning for the last couple 
months, I've been thinking about

12
00:00:43,500 --> 00:00:46,600
different lessons that are 
foundational, things that are 

13
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,200
just essential. 
And that sometimes we need to 

14
00:00:49,208 --> 00:00:52,200
resurrect, because they are so 
foundational. 

15
00:00:52,500 --> 00:00:55,900
And this morning, I want to talk
a little bit about racism. 

16
00:00:55,900 --> 00:00:59,200
Racism is something. 
It's a word that's not found in 

17
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,100
the scriptures. 
You might be surprised at that, 

18
00:01:02,100 --> 00:01:06,200
but it's a It's even a concept 
that's not really found in many 

19
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,800
places in the scriptures but I 
think we need to talk about it 

20
00:01:09,900 --> 00:01:15,100
and have an answer or be able to
give an answer for the truth 

21
00:01:15,100 --> 00:01:17,900
that lies within us. 
We need to be able to give 

22
00:01:17,900 --> 00:01:23,700
people a response for history in
the way sometimes people have 

23
00:01:23,700 --> 00:01:29,100
behaved and doctrines that come 
from men, sometimes it's really 

24
00:01:29,100 --> 00:01:32,500
amazing, what all can happen if 
you will. 

25
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,500
If you have your scriptures, I 
really want to open with two 

26
00:01:35,500 --> 00:01:39,600
passages of scripture. 
This morning one is acts the 17 

27
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,500
chapter and acts 17 and verse 
26, through 29. 

28
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:48,300
We found, we find here. 
Paul's sermon to the Athenians 

29
00:01:48,500 --> 00:01:53,200
and he is telling these people 
in Athens about the nature of 

30
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,700
God, he said I see all of your 
Idols. 

31
00:01:56,700 --> 00:01:59,600
I see, all of these God's all 
around off obvious. 

32
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:04,800
This place is very religious and
has a Lot of concern about their

33
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,600
worldview and how God fits into 
this world view. 

34
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,500
And as he begins to speak upon 
that occasion, he talks about 

35
00:02:11,500 --> 00:02:14,000
the nature of God. 
In other words, he talks about 

36
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,600
the things that they should or 
he has in common with his 

37
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,800
audience. 
He says God noticing into verse 

38
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:27,200
26 of Acts Seventeen. 
God has made from one man at 

39
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,500
that is one person Adam and Eve 
if you will mankind every nation

40
00:02:31,500 --> 00:02:34,800
of men to dwell on The face of 
the Earth and has determined 

41
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,000
their pre appointed times and 
boundaries of their dwelling. 

42
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,500
And as I began to study that 
that verse it has some 

43
00:02:42,500 --> 00:02:47,300
interesting Concepts within it. 
It's not saying that God. 

44
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,600
It's not saying that God put 
natural boundaries into place to

45
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,100
keep people in nations in 
certain areas. 

46
00:02:56,100 --> 00:03:00,200
Now that is true, especially if 
you look at the European 

47
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:04,100
continent, we find the Alps have
Divided a lot of different 

48
00:03:04,100 --> 00:03:07,700
countries and on one side of the
mountains people speak a certain

49
00:03:07,700 --> 00:03:10,400
language and on the other side 
of the mountains they speak 

50
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,600
another kind of language. 
And the same is true with 

51
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:17,100
continents that people have 
different languages and 

52
00:03:17,100 --> 00:03:21,000
different things that go on. 
But basically what he's saying 

53
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,100
here, the emphasis In this 
passage According to Hebrew 

54
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:28,400
writers is the fact that God is 
the one that put the nation's on

55
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,300
the earth? 
He's not talking necessarily 

56
00:03:30,300 --> 00:03:32,500
about the boundaries. 
He struck him out. 

57
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:36,300
He's talking about how God 
created them and put them all 

58
00:03:36,300 --> 00:03:38,700
over the world. 
So that they should seek the 

59
00:03:38,700 --> 00:03:41,700
Lord verse 27. 
See he goes on, and he talks 

60
00:03:41,700 --> 00:03:45,800
about the nature of humans about
us, and he says that they may 

61
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,300
seek the Lord in hope that they 
might grope for him and find him

62
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,000
though. 
He's not far from any one each 

63
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,500
and every one of us for in him 
we live move and have our very 

64
00:03:55,500 --> 00:04:00,000
being you know, great thinkers 
throughout history especially 

65
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,300
those who even wrote our 
Constitution have Recognize that

66
00:04:03,300 --> 00:04:07,700
we have been endowed by our 
creator with certain abilities 

67
00:04:07,700 --> 00:04:11,900
in certain motives in our lives,
life liberty, and the pursuit of

68
00:04:11,900 --> 00:04:15,600
happiness is that which is 
common amongst us and that is 

69
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,600
basically what Paul is saying 
here. 

70
00:04:17,700 --> 00:04:20,800
He says, in him, we live move 
and have our being, as some of 

71
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,600
your own poets. 
Have said he quotes human poets 

72
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,300
and he says, for we are also his
offspring. 

73
00:04:28,900 --> 00:04:31,200
In other words we are all come 
from God. 

74
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,000
God is the originator of all 
humans. 

75
00:04:34,100 --> 00:04:36,600
It says, therefore since we are 
The Offspring of God, we ought 

76
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,800
not to think the divine nature 
is like gold or silver or stone 

77
00:04:40,900 --> 00:04:43,900
or something shaped by Art and 
man's devising. 

78
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,600
Okay. 
Now he's talking about idolatry 

79
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,400
and he's going to go ahead to 
talk about the true nature of 

80
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,000
God and how that God is not an 
idol. 

81
00:04:52,300 --> 00:04:55,600
God cannot be divided into all 
of these little sections. 

82
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,500
There's a God of the night and 
of the day in a vegetables and 

83
00:04:58,500 --> 00:05:01,900
of Of fruit and different kinds 
of different gods, for all the 

84
00:05:01,900 --> 00:05:04,900
different kinds of things. 
He says, that's not God. 

85
00:05:04,900 --> 00:05:09,200
God is not made God's nature is 
not like that. 

86
00:05:09,500 --> 00:05:13,700
Well, Paul's all-encompassing 
statement here to the Athenians 

87
00:05:13,900 --> 00:05:19,300
is a gigantic world view that we
as Christians, all share that 

88
00:05:19,300 --> 00:05:23,900
God is the source of all that. 
We are all from the Divine that 

89
00:05:23,900 --> 00:05:28,100
God has created us in His image 
and such the Book of Genesis 

90
00:05:28,300 --> 00:05:31,300
says, Yes. 
But you know what racism 

91
00:05:31,300 --> 00:05:34,800
whatever it comes there. 
People are obvious that people 

92
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:39,200
are aware that we have different
colors and different 

93
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,100
conversation. 
We have different languages. 

94
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,700
And so we like to put things 
into categories, we like to 

95
00:05:46,700 --> 00:05:50,500
split them or divide them up, 
but I want you to know, it 

96
00:05:50,500 --> 00:05:54,500
doesn't come from God. 
God, when Paul talked to the 

97
00:05:54,500 --> 00:05:58,200
Athenians, he said, listen, 
God's a source of everything. 

98
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,500
He is the one who made us all 
and put us all here and he says 

99
00:06:02,500 --> 00:06:05,800
that's a something that we have 
in common are something that we 

100
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,700
share in unity. 
Well now this is a bunch of 

101
00:06:08,700 --> 00:06:15,200
labradors People will tell you 
that each of these different 

102
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:21,000
colors of labradors have 
different kinds of traits. 

103
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:26,800
But in reality they're all just 
dingy Labradors so to speak. 

104
00:06:26,900 --> 00:06:29,600
We find that there's chocolate 
and there's vanilla. 

105
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,500
And, you know, I don't know how 
many flavors you want, but the 

106
00:06:32,500 --> 00:06:35,900
whole point is, is they're all 
different kinds of with it. 

107
00:06:35,900 --> 00:06:38,000
We all know that those are the 
same dogs. 

108
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,600
We're not going to say, listen 
very carefully. 

109
00:06:41,100 --> 00:06:44,600
We're not going to say some of 
them have a soul and others, 

110
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,000
don't have a soul. 
Those are chihuahuas. 

111
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:52,200
They don't have a soul. 
Now, what we're going to say is 

112
00:06:52,700 --> 00:06:55,400
we're not going to say that we 
know that they're different 

113
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,800
colors but this doesn't mean 
they are of a different nature. 

114
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:03,000
They're all dogs. 
And so something happens 

115
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:09,000
sometimes with racism racism, 
kind of defaults kind of comes 

116
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,900
to it to a dehumanization of 
certain traits are certain 

117
00:07:12,900 --> 00:07:18,700
Trends here on the earth and it 
becomes racism, what we know of 

118
00:07:18,700 --> 00:07:22,200
as racism. 
Mm dehumanization happens. 

119
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,900
Whenever we start treating 
certain individuals or group of 

120
00:07:24,900 --> 00:07:28,200
individuals, as if they were not
human. 

121
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,000
Now, where did this idea really 
come from? 

122
00:07:31,700 --> 00:07:36,400
Believe it or not? 
It comes from the atheist. 

123
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:41,800
It comes from Eugenics, it comes
from the idea that we're not 

124
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:46,500
sure the species of everybody. 
We're not sure when someone 

125
00:07:46,500 --> 00:07:51,200
transformed from an animal into 
a human or if some are not there

126
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:55,800
yet, that's where we get some of
this idea is sometimes we treat 

127
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,900
people like they're animals and 
people have always had that 

128
00:07:58,900 --> 00:08:04,800
distinction but some people 
dehumanize other human so to 

129
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,300
speak. 
In the original origin of the 

130
00:08:08,300 --> 00:08:13,400
species, bye-bye. 
Oh, what's his name? 

131
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,800
I can't even think of his name, 
notice he says the original over

132
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,800
the name. 
The original name of the book is

133
00:08:18,900 --> 00:08:21,100
the original of species by means
of natural. 

134
00:08:21,100 --> 00:08:24,600
Selection of the preservation 
and favoured races in the 

135
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,700
struggle for Life Darwin. 
Charles Darwin, I wondered why I

136
00:08:28,707 --> 00:08:32,900
threw out his name. 
But there's some people who 

137
00:08:32,900 --> 00:08:37,100
wonder whether all the different
races, some of them have 

138
00:08:37,100 --> 00:08:40,400
developed to where they can be 
civilized, and others are 

139
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:46,500
uncivilized and even within the 
last 100 years or so. 

140
00:08:46,500 --> 00:08:50,300
We find these kinds of 
discussions going on amongst 

141
00:08:50,300 --> 00:08:54,900
people on the Earth, that's a 
form of racism, but it's not, 

142
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,800
it's not unique to us, it goes 
back. 

143
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:02,300
A long, long ways, it goes back 
to the hatred of Kind of races 

144
00:09:02,300 --> 00:09:04,900
in the in the scriptures we're 
going to talk about that. 

145
00:09:05,300 --> 00:09:09,200
But basically I want to say this
is the basic issue. 

146
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:16,000
Whereas right here are all men 
men, do all men have a soul, all

147
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:21,200
men and women are do we share 
this in common or are we going 

148
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,800
to make some or treat some like 
animals? 

149
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,500
Well let's use some terminology.
Let's talk about term and even 

150
00:09:28,500 --> 00:09:31,300
though we don't use the Bible 
doesn't use the word. 

151
00:09:32,100 --> 00:09:35,000
Racism. 
In the Scriptures, it does talk 

152
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,400
about discrimination. 
It does talk about some of this 

153
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,900
kind of thing, this kind of 
behavior. 

154
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,800
In fact, notice in the New 
Testaments, if you have your New

155
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:48,500
Testaments in Galatians, Chapter
2, and by the way, start taking 

156
00:09:48,500 --> 00:09:50,600
notes here, because we're going 
to talk about a lot of different

157
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:54,300
passages this morning. 
In Galatians, the second chapter

158
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,300
We find that because of the 
religious differences between 

159
00:09:59,300 --> 00:10:02,900
Christianity and Judaism, there 
were some who said there because

160
00:10:02,900 --> 00:10:05,300
there's no difference. 
We're going to bind circumcision

161
00:10:05,300 --> 00:10:08,100
some parts of the law. 
We're going to bind it on people

162
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,700
and others were not going to 
bind it on people. 

163
00:10:11,100 --> 00:10:14,200
Now where did this kind of 
attitude come from? 

164
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:18,400
Well it you go back to to 
Abraham and you say well the 

165
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,900
distinction was circumcision and
that's it. 

166
00:10:20,900 --> 00:10:24,200
Well that was way after God, 
first chose Adam, in fact that 

167
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,900
book that's it. 
Noted in the Book of Romans how 

168
00:10:27,900 --> 00:10:30,500
they he was justified before he 
was circumcised. 

169
00:10:31,500 --> 00:10:36,600
So this Jewish Gentile kind of 
nature God, picked Abraham while

170
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,800
he was still the Gentile, so to 
speak. 

171
00:10:39,300 --> 00:10:42,900
And he had that kind of 
recognition as being a good man.

172
00:10:43,100 --> 00:10:46,300
A man who would serve him with 
his whole heart, a man of Faith.

173
00:10:46,700 --> 00:10:50,100
A man who did what was right, 
because he knew that Idols were 

174
00:10:50,100 --> 00:10:53,600
wrong. 
But notice, he says here about 

175
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:57,300
this, false Doctrine verse 4, 
it's Galatians Chapter 2, but it

176
00:10:57,300 --> 00:11:00,000
was because of false Brethren 
secretly brought in who had 

177
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,900
sneaked to spy out our Liberty 
Pretty where we have in Christ 

178
00:11:02,900 --> 00:11:04,500
Jesus. 
In order to bring us into 

179
00:11:04,500 --> 00:11:07,000
bondage. 
He's saying, listen, there's 

180
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,400
some people here that have come 
in and they've spied it out and 

181
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,800
they want to bind the Jewish law
on people. 

182
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,500
Do to whom the law was not even 
given. 

183
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,000
They want us to bring us under 
subjection once again to that 

184
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,000
law. 
But verse 5 but we did not yield

185
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,900
to them for even an hour for 
that the truth of the Gospel 

186
00:11:26,900 --> 00:11:30,900
should remain with you but those
who are of high reputation what 

187
00:11:30,900 --> 00:11:35,200
they Our makes no difference to 
me, God shows no partiality. 

188
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,000
Interesting, The New American 
Standard deals with the idea of 

189
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:43,500
discrimination. 
And if you will this 

190
00:11:43,500 --> 00:11:47,100
discriminate discrimination 
between people, right here in 

191
00:11:47,100 --> 00:11:50,900
this very passage, he says it 
doesn't make any difference to 

192
00:11:50,900 --> 00:11:53,800
me. 
God shows no partiality verse 6.

193
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:59,500
We are those who are reputation.
Contributed nothing to me. 

194
00:11:59,700 --> 00:12:02,600
But on the contrary seeing that 
I had been entrusted with the 

195
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,300
gospel to the uncircumcised, 
just as Peter. 

196
00:12:05,300 --> 00:12:08,400
Had been to the circumcised. 
For He Who effectively worked 

197
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,500
for Peter and his apostleship to
the circumcised effectually 

198
00:12:11,500 --> 00:12:16,400
worked for me to the Gentiles 
and recognize the grace that had

199
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:22,700
been given to give gaming, 
James, and cephas and John who 

200
00:12:22,700 --> 00:12:25,900
have reputation to be pillars. 
Gave to me Barnabas the right 

201
00:12:25,900 --> 00:12:28,800
hands of Fellowship, so that we 
might go to the Gentiles and 

202
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,100
they to the circumcised. 
He basically. 

203
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:35,100
Ali is saying here listen there 
was a time whenever we had peace

204
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,800
and we had unity and everybody 
was on the same page. 

205
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,600
He said we understood that God 
had sent these guys over to 

206
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,400
evangelize the Jews and some of 
us had been sent to the Gentiles

207
00:12:46,500 --> 00:12:49,400
and but we were in peace. 
We were Harmony, we were all at 

208
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:53,100
one. 
But notice they asked us only to

209
00:12:53,100 --> 00:12:56,800
remember the poor. 
This we eagerly do, but notice 

210
00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:03,400
verse 11, Notice verse 11, but 
when cephas came to Antioch, I 

211
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,800
opposed him to his face because 
he stood to get condemned. 

212
00:13:07,100 --> 00:13:11,200
Why notice for prior to the 
coming of certain men from 

213
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,200
James? 
He used to eat with the Gentiles

214
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:20,600
but when they came he began to 
withdraw himself and hold 

215
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:25,800
himself, aloof fearing. 
The party of the circumcision 

216
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,200
and the rest of the Jews. 
Joined him in Apocrypha. 

217
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,100
See Result being that even 
Barnabas was carried away by 

218
00:13:31,100 --> 00:13:32,000
their Apocrypha. 
See. 

219
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,100
But when I saw that, they were 
not straightforward about the 

220
00:13:36,100 --> 00:13:38,600
truth of the Gospel. 
I said, to cephas in the 

221
00:13:38,608 --> 00:13:42,200
presence of all, if you being a 
Jew lived like the Gentiles and 

222
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,700
not like the Jews, how is it 
that you compelled the Gentiles 

223
00:13:44,700 --> 00:13:50,900
to live like the Jews? 
Oh, what now that is 

224
00:13:50,900 --> 00:13:54,900
discrimination and it's written 
for us and it happened. 

225
00:13:54,900 --> 00:13:58,300
Even in the church, the first 
century of the church. 

226
00:13:59,900 --> 00:14:03,600
Was it approved of God, not at 
all. 

227
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,900
Paul says, I withstood him to 
his face because he was to be 

228
00:14:06,900 --> 00:14:10,600
blamed. 
He was wrong and he was 

229
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:14,600
corrected upon this occasion 
because he wasn't behaving 

230
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:18,100
correctly. 
Now, some people are fine with, 

231
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:19,900
you know. 
Yeah, I believe every God, you 

232
00:14:19,908 --> 00:14:24,000
know, saves everybody unless 
they come to my church, Unless 

233
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,900
they come to my congregation and
then I have a problem, I tell 

234
00:14:27,900 --> 00:14:32,100
him to go have their own 
congregation. now, in my life 

235
00:14:32,100 --> 00:14:36,900
time, I've heard that There's a 
certain part of the country that

236
00:14:36,900 --> 00:14:41,100
I'm don't hold meetings in very 
often because people know who I 

237
00:14:41,100 --> 00:14:45,200
am and what I believe. 
But this we need to withstand to

238
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:50,000
their face that the truth of 
what the gospel has to say about

239
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:54,100
discrimination sometimes and 
that's happened right there 

240
00:14:54,100 --> 00:14:56,700
right there in the gospel right 
there. 

241
00:14:56,900 --> 00:15:02,000
He says God had the answer and 
you messed it up Peter You 

242
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:06,400
withdrew yourselves, you caused 
a problem between these 

243
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:11,100
different nations and such is 
not to be. 

244
00:15:11,700 --> 00:15:15,800
Well, I want us to be aware of 
some things as we continue on. 

245
00:15:16,100 --> 00:15:19,400
Not only do we use the idea of 
discrimination as being wrong 

246
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,800
for God, is not a respecter of 
persons. 

247
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,800
As the King James says, God does
not discriminate. 

248
00:15:24,900 --> 00:15:27,700
God doesn't have that kind of 
judgment. 

249
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,400
God looks upon the heart. 
When we find that in the 

250
00:15:30,408 --> 00:15:33,400
scriptures we're going to Notice
that just a little bit about the

251
00:15:33,500 --> 00:15:37,500
David King, David, but anyway, 
stereotyping happens between us 

252
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,400
stereotyping is a name that 
we're concept that we're 

253
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:46,900
familiar with its where it's 
it's too simple of a judgment. 

254
00:15:46,900 --> 00:15:50,000
And therefore, distorts the 
image of a group dictator, 

255
00:15:50,100 --> 00:15:53,400
com.com says, that's what 
stereotyping me in. 

256
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:57,500
Other words, you make something 
so simple that it becomes almost

257
00:15:57,500 --> 00:16:04,200
exaggerated and exaggerated 
Point stereotyping All Irish 

258
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:10,100
people have red hair. 
All certain people have big 

259
00:16:10,100 --> 00:16:14,700
noses. 
All other people are short, all 

260
00:16:14,700 --> 00:16:17,700
other people are tall, you know,
different kinds of the, it's 

261
00:16:17,700 --> 00:16:20,900
funny how in Africa, you can 
have all the tall ones and all 

262
00:16:20,900 --> 00:16:25,700
the short ones on the sink. 
So, but the whole point is, is 

263
00:16:25,900 --> 00:16:29,400
we like to diss make 
distinctions among ourselves 

264
00:16:30,500 --> 00:16:33,900
There's the people who you know,
can have facial hair and people 

265
00:16:33,900 --> 00:16:36,800
who don't have facial hair men 
and women. 

266
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,800
So the whole point of getting at
is what are we? 

267
00:16:40,100 --> 00:16:44,200
What are we going to do here? 
Are we going to talk about all 

268
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,500
of these things and divide 
everybody up into different 

269
00:16:46,500 --> 00:16:50,400
classes of cuteness, or or 
ugliness, or height? 

270
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,600
Or how are we going to 
differentiate between all of 

271
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,200
these people? 
We're not. 

272
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,600
And that's what we need to talk 
about here. 

273
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:01,400
How in Christ Christ is a book 
of Ian says broke down the 

274
00:17:01,408 --> 00:17:04,300
middle wall of partition, so 
making peace. 

275
00:17:05,700 --> 00:17:08,400
There's something unique about 
the world view of Christianity. 

276
00:17:08,500 --> 00:17:12,900
God is our father, and we're all
his children. 

277
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:15,900
And there's to be no 
distinctions. 

278
00:17:15,900 --> 00:17:20,000
Other than that, it's a lazy way
of trumping together all those 

279
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,099
who come from a certain class or
race. 

280
00:17:22,099 --> 00:17:24,500
And so, we begin stero. 
Piping. 

281
00:17:24,500 --> 00:17:28,900
People statements, which attempt
bike to characterize the group 

282
00:17:28,900 --> 00:17:33,900
of people by saying all such and
such are either inferior to us 

283
00:17:33,900 --> 00:17:38,700
in certain ways, or, you know, 
whatever, which leads then to 

284
00:17:38,700 --> 00:17:42,600
Prejudice an unfavorable opinion
or feeling formed beforehand or 

285
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,100
without knowledge thought. 
Or reason whenever we have 

286
00:17:46,100 --> 00:17:50,300
Prejudice, we prejudge see 
people to have certain character

287
00:17:51,100 --> 00:17:55,500
rather because of their skin 
color or height or width or 

288
00:17:55,500 --> 00:17:59,100
depth or whatever you want to 
use to try to say that. 

289
00:18:01,500 --> 00:18:04,900
When we start making these 
distinctions amongst ourselves, 

290
00:18:05,700 --> 00:18:10,800
the Bible says, we commit sin 
Whether it has to do with 

291
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:15,400
economics, rich, and poor 
weather has to do with genetics,

292
00:18:15,500 --> 00:18:19,100
male, or female. 
We find it in Christ Jesus. 

293
00:18:19,100 --> 00:18:22,400
We're all one. 
And he's not supposed to we're 

294
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,900
not supposed to be using 
stereotypes to talk about 

295
00:18:24,900 --> 00:18:28,500
whether somebody should be 
followed respected or anything 

296
00:18:28,500 --> 00:18:34,300
else that prejudice that comes 
that unfavorable potential 

297
00:18:34,500 --> 00:18:36,900
opinion. 
Prejudice comes from a closed 

298
00:18:36,900 --> 00:18:38,500
mind. 
Without any desire effort, 

299
00:18:38,500 --> 00:18:41,500
purport to learn the facts, and 
other words, we need to learn 

300
00:18:41,500 --> 00:18:45,400
the facts about a certain 
person. whenever I was young and

301
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:50,600
I'm going to date myself here, 
I'm old I listen to Martin 

302
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:56,500
Luther King. 
And his his speech about the 

303
00:18:56,500 --> 00:19:00,000
mounted talk, is still causes 
emotion with it. 

304
00:19:01,900 --> 00:19:06,500
He talked about one day whenever
he sees that a person will be 

305
00:19:06,500 --> 00:19:11,700
judged on the nature of his 
character rather than the color 

306
00:19:11,700 --> 00:19:15,100
of his skin. 
And I just applauded, it was 

307
00:19:15,100 --> 00:19:19,300
just amazing. 
Yes, he saw that day. 

308
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:24,400
They killed him for it. 
The whole point I'm getting at 

309
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:30,100
is this is God's perspective 
when we look at each other with 

310
00:19:30,100 --> 00:19:35,700
God's eyes, what do we see? 
we don't see their outer 

311
00:19:35,700 --> 00:19:40,800
characteristics, their stature, 
Their ugliness are cuteness. 

312
00:19:42,300 --> 00:19:47,400
To the Chagrin of some young 
men, you know, women God looks 

313
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,900
at the heart, he looks somewhere
else. 

314
00:19:50,500 --> 00:19:54,400
Well Where did the nation's come
from? 

315
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,600
Let's just go on. 
Where did the nation's come 

316
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,100
from? 
I'm glad we have so many young 

317
00:19:59,100 --> 00:20:03,000
people here today. 
Let's talk about this for just a

318
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,000
little bit. 
This is a picture of a real 

319
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:06,900
place. 
It doesn't show up. 

320
00:20:06,900 --> 00:20:09,100
Well, I got to pixelated, sorry 
about that. 

321
00:20:09,700 --> 00:20:12,900
I have to get a better picture. 
This is the, what's the 

322
00:20:12,900 --> 00:20:16,000
foundations of Babylon? 
The Tower of Babel. 

323
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,700
You can see it today in the 
Middle East and the in the 

324
00:20:18,700 --> 00:20:22,900
valley where it is. 
It cost you a lot of money to 

325
00:20:22,900 --> 00:20:24,800
get there but nonetheless you 
can see it. 

326
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:29,000
The Tower of Babel, something 
happened at the Tower of Babel, 

327
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:31,900
we find the languages working. 
Used. 

328
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:37,400
Now, there's all kinds of 
languages and dialects and And 

329
00:20:40,100 --> 00:20:45,100
accents within our language. 
I made rebuilt fun of Reba a 

330
00:20:45,100 --> 00:20:51,000
long time. because she came from
Texas, and when we got married, 

331
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:55,400
I said Reba Reba, my mom wants 
to hear you count to ten sheikah

332
00:20:55,400 --> 00:21:02,200
1T, 3, 4, 5, And I'd say, what 
was that five again? 

333
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:06,600
I was at five or was it five? 
She goes, it was five. 

334
00:21:10,700 --> 00:21:13,600
She still hates that to this 
day, if I asked her, what was 

335
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:18,000
that five anyway? 
The whole point is we have 

336
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,500
different accents, different 
things. 

337
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,500
And whenever he talks about 
languages, but there are common 

338
00:21:24,500 --> 00:21:27,700
things, people who study, it's 
like, nobody ever studied this. 

339
00:21:27,700 --> 00:21:32,700
Yes, we've studied this. 
There are about 100 over 100 

340
00:21:32,700 --> 00:21:36,800
different languages, but there's
there's gobs and gobs of 

341
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,400
dialects, and And and little 
intricate things but that you 

342
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,200
kind of better when you boil it 
down. 

343
00:21:43,700 --> 00:21:47,000
There's really not that much 
distinction between these but 

344
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:53,600
yet at the Tower of Babel they 
all spoke one language. 

345
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:58,700
Didn't they? 
In Genesis chapter 11, if you 

346
00:21:58,700 --> 00:22:01,700
have your Old Testament, please 
turn to Genesis chapter 11. 

347
00:22:01,700 --> 00:22:04,200
We're just going to look at a 
few passages here. 

348
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,200
In Genesis 11:1, notice what it 
says. 

349
00:22:07,500 --> 00:22:09,900
Now, the whole earth used the 
same language and the same 

350
00:22:09,900 --> 00:22:14,500
words, there you go. 
Now when was this was, this was 

351
00:22:14,500 --> 00:22:17,800
just after, after the flood 
Genesis 9:1. 

352
00:22:18,700 --> 00:22:22,600
But notice what it says here 
happened after the flood, we 

353
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:27,400
find it, you know, we're all one
in Adam and Eve as Romans 

354
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:32,000
argues, but then the world got 
big and then God had to flush 

355
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:36,400
the world with the flood. 
And and we got all of these, the

356
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:41,300
children of Noah. 
And it says the world and they 

357
00:22:41,300 --> 00:22:42,800
were all one. 
They weren't spreading out over 

358
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,300
the world. 
So they had, yes, they had. 

359
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,400
But they hadn't, they there was 
a big group of them. 

360
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,100
That hadn't. 
And here's why. 

361
00:22:51,300 --> 00:22:54,800
And at that, they journeyed 
East, they found a plain in the 

362
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:56,200
land of shinar and settled 
there. 

363
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,500
And they said, to one another 
come, let us make bricks and 

364
00:22:59,500 --> 00:23:01,500
burn them thoroughly, and use 
the brick for stone. 

365
00:23:01,500 --> 00:23:05,400
And they used Harper mortar. 
And they said, come, let us 

366
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,900
build ourselves a city and a 
tower, whose top will reach into

367
00:23:08,900 --> 00:23:12,200
into heaven and let us make 
ourselves a name. 

368
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:15,200
Otherwise, we will was scattered
abroad over the face of the old 

369
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,300
Earth and the Lord came down to 
see the city and the tower, 

370
00:23:18,300 --> 00:23:21,200
which the sons of men had built.
And the Lord said, behold. 

371
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,600
They are one people and they all
have the same language and this 

372
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,200
is what they began to do, and 
how nothing, which they purpose 

373
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,700
to do will be impossible for 
them come. 

374
00:23:29,700 --> 00:23:32,100
Let us go down and there 
confused, their languages. 

375
00:23:32,300 --> 00:23:34,900
So they will not understand one 
another in speech. 

376
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:39,600
Now, the Lord they don't think 
the Lord did this because he was

377
00:23:39,700 --> 00:23:44,600
upset at himself or or what he 
meant. 

378
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:49,200
He was upset at, man. 
For this idea of man was going 

379
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:53,600
to become God. 
There is nothing impossible for 

380
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,700
us. 
If we all stick together, if we 

381
00:23:55,700 --> 00:23:58,400
all stay together and have one 
language, we are going to be 

382
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:02,100
able to build this into heaven. 
The Hebrew is really interesting

383
00:24:02,100 --> 00:24:05,300
here and The New American 
Standard captures that 

384
00:24:05,300 --> 00:24:09,900
uniqueness by saying not unto 
heaven, but into heaven. 

385
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,500
And other words, they were 
literally going to go have war 

386
00:24:13,500 --> 00:24:17,000
with God and take over Heaven, 
become Gods themselves. 

387
00:24:17,300 --> 00:24:21,500
It was the idea that we are God 
of the world and of the cause of

388
00:24:21,500 --> 00:24:23,100
everything. 
Thing we see, we're going to be 

389
00:24:23,100 --> 00:24:27,400
gods and God says, that's not 
healthy for, man. 

390
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,100
That's not healthy. 
They're going to kill themselves

391
00:24:32,100 --> 00:24:35,200
pretty quick. 
And so he confused their 

392
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:39,400
languages verse 8. 
So the Lord scattered them 

393
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,800
abroad from over there, over the
face of the whole earth and they

394
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,800
stopped building the city. 
Therefore, the name was called 

395
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:49,700
Babel because the Lord confused 
the languages of the whole earth

396
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,100
and from there from there. 
The Lord scattered them abroad, 

397
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:54,700
over the face of the whole 
earth. 

398
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,400
If you want to know wherever all
the races came from and all over

399
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:02,700
the Earth, it's because of that.
Now did they all come from the 

400
00:25:02,700 --> 00:25:05,400
same source does? 
Does our studies does our 

401
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,500
language studies and studies 
about history? 

402
00:25:08,700 --> 00:25:13,700
Does it confirm this idea? 
Yes, the land where they had 

403
00:25:13,700 --> 00:25:19,000
settled was in that Middle 
Eastern area of Mesopotamia, 

404
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:23,700
that that we talked about among 
the Jews, and they were there in

405
00:25:23,700 --> 00:25:27,200
that, in that area. 
Now, those who are genetic the 

406
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,600
study said, well, some maybe 
it's a little bit lower into a 

407
00:25:30,700 --> 00:25:33,700
northern They're in Africa and 
other say, no, it was in the 

408
00:25:33,700 --> 00:25:35,800
Middle East. 
More room over near Babylon. 

409
00:25:36,300 --> 00:25:41,500
The fact of matter is, is where 
Eden was was between the 

410
00:25:41,500 --> 00:25:44,300
Euphrates River. 
It's a Middle East and a lot of 

411
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,900
science says, yeah, that's 
probably where all of humanity 

412
00:25:47,900 --> 00:25:51,700
really came from from there. 
And notice After the flood, 

413
00:25:51,700 --> 00:25:54,500
they're still there and notice 
what happens. 

414
00:25:54,500 --> 00:25:56,800
They're building. 
They're going to become and God 

415
00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,400
says, no and scatters them over 
the face of the whole Earth. 

416
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:05,500
Is there a genetic link between 
all of us on the earth like a 

417
00:26:05,500 --> 00:26:08,200
thankfully? 
During our generation, we find 

418
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,300
the double helix. 
We have people who have 

419
00:26:10,300 --> 00:26:13,700
discovered all these things 
started tracing things down and 

420
00:26:13,700 --> 00:26:17,600
they find out that even the 
American Indians, that they were

421
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,900
in a different continent but 
they have Asian connections, 

422
00:26:21,900 --> 00:26:27,300
they came over the land bridge. 
That was up north and what about

423
00:26:27,300 --> 00:26:29,700
the people Australia? 
Yeah, they have connections to 

424
00:26:29,700 --> 00:26:32,200
what about all? 
Of the other people in the 

425
00:26:32,208 --> 00:26:39,000
world, we all have connections. 
It all is amazingly. 

426
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,200
We're all of One people, all of 
mankind. 

427
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,600
We all came from the same place 
and then we were scattered over 

428
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,800
the face of their. 
That's where all of the things 

429
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,100
came from. 
Well, wait a minute, don't we 

430
00:26:50,100 --> 00:26:52,600
have different colored people in
different places? 

431
00:26:52,900 --> 00:26:55,000
We obviously have different 
languages. 

432
00:26:55,500 --> 00:26:56,800
Why? 
Where do we get the different 

433
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:00,900
colors in the different genetic?
Predisposition, so to speak. 

434
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,400
that comes from who you marry, 
you know and whenever you only 

435
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,600
got so many women and men into 
just a certain area you pick 

436
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:14,600
them to marry with and so you 
reinforce certain traits and we 

437
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:19,000
have certain traits amongst us 
that our unique one of the 

438
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,000
things whenever I was studying 
for this, it was really funny. 

439
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:28,000
What I found out about carita. 
Did you know that Koreans many 

440
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,700
Koreans don't smell very much 
when they sweat? 

441
00:27:31,700 --> 00:27:34,600
They they don't some of them 
don't even have sweat glands, 

442
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:38,300
very much very much, you sweat 
glands and I thought, you know 

443
00:27:38,300 --> 00:27:43,700
what I have never just 
conscientiously smelled a Korean

444
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:49,100
Yeah, but there's somebody that 
does that more power to you. 

445
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,900
Somebody goes around the world 
smelling people and I guess. 

446
00:27:54,900 --> 00:27:56,700
Well, no, they figured that. 
That's a giant. 

447
00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,000
A genetic difference, there's 
eyes difference. 

448
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:03,700
There's facial features, there's
balm has all of these different 

449
00:28:03,700 --> 00:28:07,700
things, as I point to myself, 
there's ball that the whole 

450
00:28:07,700 --> 00:28:13,200
point is, we each have different
things and that becomes whenever

451
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:16,300
we marry somebody that has those
genetic we dispositions, we 

452
00:28:16,300 --> 00:28:20,900
often develop those freezes 
positions in a certain area. 

453
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,800
But does God say there's some 
people that have different 

454
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:29,300
physical characteristics that 
are evidence of how not having a

455
00:28:29,300 --> 00:28:33,200
soul. 
No. 

456
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:40,500
We know that all men, everywhere
have a soul, I do not believe it

457
00:28:40,500 --> 00:28:45,500
is without notice that in Acts 
the eighth chapter verse 26 

458
00:28:45,700 --> 00:28:49,700
through 40. 
The Ethiopian eunuch is one of 

459
00:28:49,708 --> 00:28:52,900
the first converts mentioned in 
the scriptures. 

460
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:58,800
Now, don't tell me Ethiopians. 
Don't have a soul, whenever God 

461
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:04,000
and the Holy Spirit, picked an 
Ethiopian to write an entire a 

462
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,800
chapter almost about and his 
conversion. 

463
00:29:09,100 --> 00:29:11,100
That's Doctrine. 
That's Bible. 

464
00:29:11,900 --> 00:29:16,000
You have the Ethiopian eunuch. 
I'm not going to talk about 

465
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:17,300
eunuchs. 
So I'm gonna tell everybody 

466
00:29:17,300 --> 00:29:22,600
Ethiopians firm in the church, 
historically in Northern Africa 

467
00:29:22,700 --> 00:29:27,100
was huge. 
It was big. 

468
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,700
It was a place where 
Christianity took, foothold in 

469
00:29:30,700 --> 00:29:34,300
the world. 
And how people can develop a 

470
00:29:34,308 --> 00:29:36,500
doctor. 
I heard whenever I was a young 

471
00:29:36,500 --> 00:29:43,800
man someone in a place tell me. 
That black people don't have a 

472
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:48,100
soul. 
And I said, are you serious 

473
00:29:48,700 --> 00:29:51,300
that? 
Somebody actually believes that.

474
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:56,200
They said, yes. 
That's ridiculous. 

475
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,700
My friend. 
The Holy Spirit took care of 

476
00:29:59,700 --> 00:30:03,200
anybody that would even kind of 
come up with that idea by 

477
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:06,400
putting the Ethiopian eunuch in 
the scriptures and saying he was

478
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,900
worthy of Salvation, and God 
spent the time to send somebody 

479
00:30:09,900 --> 00:30:12,000
there to have him hear the 
truth. 

480
00:30:13,100 --> 00:30:17,400
And obey the gospel and to 
spread Christianity in that 

481
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:21,900
country. 
Jesus even suffered from racism 

482
00:30:21,900 --> 00:30:26,300
in John 1, verse 46 Nathaniel, 
said to him, can any good thing 

483
00:30:26,300 --> 00:30:28,800
come out of Nazareth? 
Where did that come from? 

484
00:30:29,300 --> 00:30:32,900
We say can anything good come 
out of fill in the blank. 

485
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:39,500
That is wrong thinking. 
This is obviously prejudiced. 

486
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:45,100
This is obviously stereotyping 
in the scriptures and God 

487
00:30:45,100 --> 00:30:48,500
condemns it in. 
John 1, verse 46, can anything 

488
00:30:48,500 --> 00:30:51,700
good. 
Philip said, come and see this 

489
00:30:51,700 --> 00:30:57,300
guy is this guy is the Messiah, 
the Messiah came out of 

490
00:30:57,300 --> 00:31:01,500
Nazareth, which wasn't a good 
place to come from. 

491
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:08,900
Evidently Because back then they
stereotypically said people from

492
00:31:08,900 --> 00:31:11,400
Nazareth, weren't worthy of 
respect. 

493
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,400
Philip said, come and see. 
You've got to see this person, 

494
00:31:16,500 --> 00:31:19,600
you've got to see you and hear 
what he says and see what he 

495
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:25,300
does, and how he is, indeed the 
Messiah, in John 14 verse 9, 

496
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:29,200
therefore the Samaritan woman. 
Now, who were Samaritans, 

497
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:35,400
Samaritans were Jewish people 
that had intermarried with the 

498
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:39,800
people around them, the other 
Gentiles and were considered by 

499
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:45,500
the pure race of Jews. 
The Hebrew of Hebrews. 

500
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:54,100
If you will. 
They were considered half-breeds

501
00:31:54,100 --> 00:31:58,300
and to be reduce respected. 
And notice this woman even 

502
00:31:58,300 --> 00:32:01,700
viewed herself that way. 
Therefore the Samaritan woman 

503
00:32:01,700 --> 00:32:04,000
said to Jesus. 
How is it that you being a Jew? 

504
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,600
Ask me for a drink since I am a 
Samaritan woman. 

505
00:32:08,100 --> 00:32:12,800
In other words, she was aware 
that there was racism way back. 

506
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:18,100
Then that there was stereotyping
And she says, how come you're 

507
00:32:18,100 --> 00:32:21,600
talking to me? 
I'm a Samaritan, you know, I'm a

508
00:32:21,608 --> 00:32:23,600
Samaritan. 
Why are you talking to me? 

509
00:32:24,300 --> 00:32:27,500
And, of course. 
Jesus went ahead, says, woman. 

510
00:32:27,500 --> 00:32:30,400
If you would have asked, I could
give you living water, you'll 

511
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:34,100
never thirst again. 
He would say she was worthy of 

512
00:32:34,100 --> 00:32:36,800
Salvation. 
And she went around guy that 

513
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:41,100
everyone around to understand 
that Jesus was different than 

514
00:32:41,100 --> 00:32:43,300
anything else that she had ever 
heard of that. 

515
00:32:43,300 --> 00:32:46,600
Jesus was speaking for the mind 
and the Heart of God. 

516
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,700
Well, what does the bible 
directly say about racism? 

517
00:32:49,700 --> 00:32:51,100
And I'm going to have to get 
down. 

518
00:32:53,500 --> 00:32:56,200
The bottom, the bottom Gospel of
Jesus Christ is the only true 

519
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,900
and Lasting solution to the 
problem of racism. 

520
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,800
Not some more human Concept in 
our land. 

521
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:06,400
There are in our country right 
now. 

522
00:33:06,500 --> 00:33:09,900
There is another world fruit 
view that's trying for 

523
00:33:09,900 --> 00:33:15,600
dominance. 
And it's trying to split us up 

524
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:20,900
into groups by our skin color 
and by our genetics and by all 

525
00:33:20,900 --> 00:33:25,700
kinds of little things that you 
can identify groups identity. 

526
00:33:25,700 --> 00:33:29,800
It's called identity politics. 
It's called this idea of where 

527
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:34,900
you can separate people buy into
two basic groups oppressor and 

528
00:33:34,900 --> 00:33:37,500
oppressed. 
And and that's what you've got 

529
00:33:37,500 --> 00:33:40,900
to be worried about is which are
you and it can happen, even in 

530
00:33:40,900 --> 00:33:45,000
homes but that's why I think the
home is got to go is because as 

531
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,000
long as the structure of male 
and female, then the Bible says,

532
00:33:48,300 --> 00:33:53,500
you know, because of the 
relationship that has got to be 

533
00:33:53,500 --> 00:33:56,300
destroyed or at least the 
Western concept of it, the home 

534
00:33:56,300 --> 00:34:01,500
needs to be restructured. 
But notice this, the gospel 

535
00:34:01,500 --> 00:34:06,000
really does have the problem 
solved in the way we are to view

536
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,400
one. 
Another Christians are to be 

537
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,900
different from the world. 
The Bible says, notice Matthew 5

538
00:34:11,900 --> 00:34:16,900
verse 14, if you're taking 
notes, Mmm. 

539
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,699
You are the light of the world. 
A city set on a hill cannot be 

540
00:34:20,699 --> 00:34:22,800
hidden. 
Nor does anyone light a lamp and

541
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:26,900
put it under a basket but on a 
life's lampstand and it gives 

542
00:34:26,900 --> 00:34:30,400
light to all their in the house.
Let your light shine before men,

543
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,500
in such a way that they may see,
your good works. 

544
00:34:32,699 --> 00:34:37,600
And glorify your father who is 
in heaven, this is a Christian 

545
00:34:38,300 --> 00:34:42,199
he is Deeds, are to be 
Authentically. 

546
00:34:42,199 --> 00:34:45,600
Offered to all, just like God's 
was. 

547
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,699
We're supposed to imitate our 
father in that when Jesus came 

548
00:34:50,699 --> 00:34:53,000
to the Earth. 
Did he come to only parts of the

549
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,500
Earth are? 
Did he come for the whole world?

550
00:34:56,199 --> 00:35:00,600
John 4:23 and 24, John. 
All these other passages that 

551
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:04,400
talk about the nature of God. 
God came to the world acts, 60 

552
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,200
God. 
All in all of these passages, 

553
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,000
Jesus came. 
Tasted death for every man. 

554
00:35:11,700 --> 00:35:16,400
Jesus came to save the world, he
names the world. 

555
00:35:17,100 --> 00:35:21,300
God, so loved the world. 
John 3:16 that he gave his only 

556
00:35:21,300 --> 00:35:24,600
begotten son. 
He named the world. 

557
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:30,000
As it metonymy, by the way, to 
suggest its contents and that's 

558
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:35,000
people us people to save all 
those who are in the world, God 

559
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:39,300
loved the world that he gave his
only begotten son for all of the

560
00:35:39,300 --> 00:35:43,000
humanity that would live on the 
surface of the planet for 

561
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,800
everybody. 
Everybody. 

562
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:49,900
Jesus came for everybody that 
Jesus was going to come and 

563
00:35:49,900 --> 00:35:54,500
bring Salvation to all these and
glorify. 

564
00:35:54,500 --> 00:35:59,100
Your father who is in heaven? 
Love is the more excellent way 

565
00:35:59,100 --> 00:36:02,700
in First Corinthians 12 verse 31
but during ladies, the desire 

566
00:36:02,700 --> 00:36:05,000
greater gifts and still, I 
showed to you a more excellent 

567
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:06,100
way. 
This way. 

568
00:36:06,100 --> 00:36:08,600
Involves love, Agape. 
Love First. 

569
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,700
Corinthians 13. 
They though I have the ability 

570
00:36:11,700 --> 00:36:14,000
to speak all kinds of tongues 
and have not love it. 

571
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,200
Profits, me nothing. 
And then he goes on down, and 

572
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:20,200
tells us about how love is 
freely given how it's selfless 

573
00:36:20,300 --> 00:36:23,900
is given without regard for the 
loved ones condition. 

574
00:36:24,900 --> 00:36:29,700
Just like the parable of the 
Good Samaritan Samaritan. 

575
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,900
This is supposed to be an 
illustration of what racism. 

576
00:36:34,700 --> 00:36:40,800
No, it's an anti-racist story. 
Here we have a Jew that's caring

577
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,600
for a Samaritan and takes care 
of Amy's. 

578
00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,200
Fell among robbers. 
And so, he takes him and takes 

579
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,000
care of him. 
Things like that. 

580
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:53,500
Jesus consistently taught 
against this kind of ideology. 

581
00:36:53,900 --> 00:36:55,400
That's what I'm trying to. 
To get at. 

582
00:36:56,100 --> 00:36:59,700
There isn't any verse that is 
expressly says racism is 

583
00:36:59,700 --> 00:37:04,300
suspenseful, but the stories the
people Jesus talked to the 

584
00:37:04,300 --> 00:37:07,900
things Jesus experienced the way
he expressed himself all. 

585
00:37:07,900 --> 00:37:13,800
Tell us God's perspective. 
And he says, I want you to love 

586
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,700
one another if I speak with the 
tongues of men and angels and 

587
00:37:16,700 --> 00:37:20,000
don't have love, I become a 
noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

588
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,000
If I have the gift of Prophecy, 
know all Mysteries and have all 

589
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,200
knowledge and have all Faith. 
So as to remove mountains and 

590
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:31,200
don't have love, I am nothing. 
That means nothing valuable in 

591
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:35,600
the eyes of God. 
Notice he goes on to say and if 

592
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:39,400
I give all my possessions to 
feed the poor and surrender, my 

593
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:44,300
body to be burned and don't have
love it, profits me nothing. 

594
00:37:46,500 --> 00:37:49,800
Love is patient. 
Love is kind. 

595
00:37:50,500 --> 00:37:55,200
Love is not jealous. 
I want to say the primary 

596
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,000
statement about the nature of 
God as God is love. 

597
00:37:59,300 --> 00:38:02,800
Love is the answer. 
Love does not brag and is not 

598
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:07,000
arrogant loved. 
In other words, love doesn't 

599
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:11,600
brag about its excellent seeds. 
Are there distinctions between 

600
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:13,500
different peoples of different 
nations? 

601
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:17,000
Yeah, some are taller. 
Some are shorter, some have this

602
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:20,200
and some have that I thought it 
was so humorous. 

603
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:26,400
I was watching a black man, 
preach about racism and he said,

604
00:38:26,700 --> 00:38:33,800
he said, I want you to know That
just because you don't have as 

605
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:35,500
much melon. 
And as I do, I want you to know.

606
00:38:35,500 --> 00:38:40,500
God loves you just as much. 
And I so appreciated that 

607
00:38:40,500 --> 00:38:45,700
statement. 
We talk about colors. 

608
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,200
Let me talk about colors because
I'm gonna get off here. 

609
00:38:48,500 --> 00:38:56,800
I knew I would colors. 
What kind of colors do we have 

610
00:38:57,200 --> 00:39:02,600
our we green and chartreuse and 
whatever other colors you want 

611
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:04,400
to come up with our? 
We have all those things. 

612
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:10,000
No, we basically have one color 
and we're different shades of 

613
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:13,800
brown. 
Some of us are dark brown and 

614
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:18,600
some of us are light brown. 
Some of us have different spots.

615
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:25,800
My brother has a thing that eats
he has a bacteria that eats all 

616
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:28,200
of his melanin. 
And so his hands. 

617
00:39:28,300 --> 00:39:32,600
He's got real white spots and 
then he's got really dark spots 

618
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,200
because he's out in the sun a 
lot. 

619
00:39:34,900 --> 00:39:41,500
And he says, I'm a rainbow Well,
I don't care what your spots 

620
00:39:41,500 --> 00:39:46,000
are. 
If you have unique little 

621
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:50,600
blemishes that their wine stains
or whatever it might be, I don't

622
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:54,400
know. 
But I'll tell you what, all men 

623
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:59,600
have underneath that. 
God made of one blood all men. 

624
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:05,600
You take blood out of a person 
and that's whenever you find out

625
00:40:05,700 --> 00:40:09,900
if they're human or not. 
Because blood you can get the 

626
00:40:09,900 --> 00:40:13,300
blood of all different kinds of 
colors of people and sometimes 

627
00:40:13,300 --> 00:40:16,800
you need that blood and it 
doesn't matter what color the 

628
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:25,600
person had that it came from. 
And so love, does not seek, its 

629
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:29,100
own is not easily provoked. 
Don't let Pride about your red 

630
00:40:29,100 --> 00:40:33,500
hair or your non-red hair, your 
kinky hair, your long, straight 

631
00:40:33,500 --> 00:40:40,800
hair, your Lack of smell 
whatever it might be. 

632
00:40:44,100 --> 00:40:48,800
That's not something that we 
should use to feel arrogant, 

633
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,500
does not seek its own, is not 
provoked, does not take into 

634
00:40:52,500 --> 00:40:56,100
account a wrong suffered does 
not rejoice in unrighteousness. 

635
00:40:56,100 --> 00:40:59,900
But rejoices in the truth Bears,
all things believes all things, 

636
00:40:59,900 --> 00:41:03,900
hopes all things endures, all 
things, and the second is like 

637
00:41:03,900 --> 00:41:05,700
an intuitive. 
You shall love your neighbor as 

638
00:41:05,700 --> 00:41:07,700
yourself. 
Love God with all our heart 

639
00:41:07,700 --> 00:41:10,000
soul, mind strength, love your 
neighbor as yourself, the Golden

640
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:13,400
Rule, we're supposed to love. 
All our neighbors that somebody 

641
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,000
outside I'd of yourself the 
Bible. 

642
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,500
Never, never tells you to love 
yourself. 

643
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:20,200
It tells you to love one. 
It assumes that you do. 

644
00:41:21,500 --> 00:41:24,200
And says you love one another 
like you love yourself. 

645
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:29,800
We know that that's a lot. 
So, he says, I want you to care 

646
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:33,400
for one another Law Office, the 
answer Jesus Christ, really did 

647
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:37,200
bring peace to mankind. 
Luke 21 verse 29. 

648
00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:39,700
Who's my neighbor but wishing to
justify himself. 

649
00:41:39,700 --> 00:41:43,300
He says he said to Jesus, who is
my neighbor, you see back, then 

650
00:41:43,300 --> 00:41:48,100
they're still fighting over it. 
Stereotyping discrimination, 

651
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,600
they wanted. 
They like it, it makes them 

652
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:53,100
proud, it makes America. 
I'm better than you. 

653
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,500
Jesus stop it. 
Will you just stop it? 

654
00:41:57,700 --> 00:42:03,100
Who's my name? 
The which of these do you think 

655
00:42:03,100 --> 00:42:05,500
proved to be a neighbor to the 
man who fell among the robbers? 

656
00:42:05,700 --> 00:42:08,400
And he said the one who showed 
Mercy to him. 

657
00:42:08,700 --> 00:42:11,600
Then Jesus said to him, go do 
the same. 

658
00:42:11,700 --> 00:42:15,400
This is that parable of the Good
Samaritan that we were talking 

659
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:19,200
about. 
This is how God wants us to have

660
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,400
our worldview. 
I want you to know. 

661
00:42:22,100 --> 00:42:27,200
God says I want you to care 
about everyone regardless of 

662
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:31,100
their genetic family. 
Everyone is our neighbor and 

663
00:42:31,100 --> 00:42:33,200
God's eyes. 
Everyone is deserving of Love, 

664
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:37,000
including those who have been, 
we have been taught to hate and 

665
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:41,100
those who have been taught to 
hate us in Matthew 5, but I say 

666
00:42:41,100 --> 00:42:45,100
to you love your enemies. 
Now, he gets really specific. 

667
00:42:45,100 --> 00:42:47,700
I don't know who you consider to
be enemies, but Whoever they 

668
00:42:47,700 --> 00:42:49,600
are. 
Here's your command. 

669
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,000
Love your enemies. 
Bless them that curse, you do 

670
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,400
good to them. 
That hate, you pray for them 

671
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,900
which despitefully use you and 
persecute you. 

672
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:04,100
That's right. you know, in the 
early church racism between Jews

673
00:43:04,100 --> 00:43:06,700
and Gentiles in the first 
century, we've already noticed 

674
00:43:06,700 --> 00:43:13,100
the book the entire book of 
Galatians But the hatred between

675
00:43:13,100 --> 00:43:17,200
the Jews and the Gentiles is 
specifically mentioned. 

676
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:21,700
So clearly in the scriptures 
that there can be no doubt that 

677
00:43:21,700 --> 00:43:24,500
all Christians ought to share 
the same perspective. 

678
00:43:25,300 --> 00:43:28,500
And after there had been much 
debate, Peter stood up and said 

679
00:43:28,500 --> 00:43:32,900
to them brother and, you know, 
in the early days, God made a 

680
00:43:32,900 --> 00:43:34,400
choice among you that by my 
mouth. 

681
00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:38,300
The Gentiles would hear the word
of the gospel and believe. 

682
00:43:41,100 --> 00:43:44,100
And God, who knows the heart. 
Testified to them, giving them 

683
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:47,700
the Holy Spirit. 
Just as he did, to us acts 10 

684
00:43:47,700 --> 00:43:51,700
acts 11, notice, he could going 
on in here in Acts 15, it's 

685
00:43:51,700 --> 00:43:55,500
repeated again. 
Three times. 

686
00:43:56,600 --> 00:44:03,300
Notice just as he did to us and 
he made no distinctions between 

687
00:44:03,300 --> 00:44:07,700
us and Them cleansing their 
hearts by faith. 

688
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:15,100
There That's why that's why 
there should absolutely be no 

689
00:44:15,100 --> 00:44:19,500
racism in the Lord's church. 
Now, there may be racism in some

690
00:44:19,500 --> 00:44:23,000
Churches but it should not be in
the Lord's church. 

691
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:26,200
We should not make those kinds 
of distinctions amongst 

692
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:33,600
ourselves. now, that doesn't 
mean because there used to be I 

693
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:35,900
get to claim victim status. 
No. 

694
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,300
I'll tell you, whenever it comes
to enslavement, every people in 

695
00:44:41,300 --> 00:44:43,900
the world have been enslaved by 
somebody who dominated them. 

696
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:49,300
Africans took slaves of other 
Africans whenever they dominated

697
00:44:49,300 --> 00:44:52,800
them in the scriptures. 
Whenever a Wars, even look at 

698
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:55,800
Goliath David and Goliath. 
If we went, then you get to be 

699
00:44:55,800 --> 00:45:00,700
our slaves. 
That's the way they did it back.

700
00:45:00,700 --> 00:45:03,000
Then, when a war would go 
dominated land, you would take 

701
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:06,600
those feel asleep, everybody 
practice slavery back then God 

702
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:11,500
didn't Jesus Christ came and 
changed the perspective of 

703
00:45:11,500 --> 00:45:14,400
everyone in the world. 
The effect of Jesus Christ on 

704
00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:18,400
this world is amazing and people
don't give God credit. 

705
00:45:24,700 --> 00:45:27,600
Notice what Peter says in Acts 
10 opening his mouth. 

706
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:30,200
Peter said, I most certainly 
understand now that God is not 

707
00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:35,100
one to show partiality, but in 
every what? 

708
00:45:35,700 --> 00:45:43,100
Every 435, yeah, every nation 
the man who fears him and does 

709
00:45:43,100 --> 00:45:46,100
what is right is welcomed to 
him. 

710
00:45:47,900 --> 00:45:55,800
That's a significant statement 
and acts 10 verse 35 in every 

711
00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:58,200
nation he who fears him and 
does. 

712
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,100
What is right, is welcome to 
you. 

713
00:46:01,100 --> 00:46:05,500
That's how God designed us to 
bring Unity is for everybody to 

714
00:46:05,500 --> 00:46:09,200
acknowledge our creator. 
And Obey him. 

715
00:46:09,900 --> 00:46:13,900
He became the author of Eternal 
salvation unto all them, that 

716
00:46:13,900 --> 00:46:19,000
obey him, Hebrews 5 and verse 9.
Oh everyone. 

717
00:46:19,500 --> 00:46:23,500
We don't have to question. 
If you address as father, the 

718
00:46:23,500 --> 00:46:26,700
one who impartially judges 
according to each one's work, 

719
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:31,500
its individual. 
This is God's concept where I 

720
00:46:31,500 --> 00:46:34,100
got to be saved as a race. 
We're not going to be saved as 

721
00:46:34,100 --> 00:46:37,300
any other group other than the 
church. 

722
00:46:39,700 --> 00:46:43,800
Not some human Arrangement, not 
some human category. 

723
00:46:46,700 --> 00:46:49,600
Not some intersectionality 
identification. 

724
00:46:54,800 --> 00:47:00,800
God says each one's work 
according to conduct yourself 

725
00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:04,200
during fear the time of during 
your time of your stay on the 

726
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,700
earth. 
Let's look at Romans 1 verse 14.

727
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:11,200
I am under obligation, both to 
the Greeks, and to The 

728
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:14,200
Barbarians, both to the wise and
to the foolish. 

729
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:17,700
So for my part, I am eager to 
preach the gospel to you who are

730
00:47:17,700 --> 00:47:21,800
at Rome for notice for I'm not 
ashamed. 

731
00:47:22,900 --> 00:47:26,700
Of the gospel. 
For it is the power of God to 

732
00:47:26,700 --> 00:47:36,900
for salvation to everyone, who 
believes to the Jew first and 

733
00:47:36,900 --> 00:47:39,800
also to the Greek. 
What is he trying to say here? 

734
00:47:40,700 --> 00:47:44,900
He's trying to say stop looking 
that these nationalities. 

735
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:48,200
Stop looking at races and 
recognize the from God's 

736
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:51,300
perspective. 
All he wants people to do is 

737
00:47:51,300 --> 00:47:56,000
obey the gospel. 
And the Lord will add him to the

738
00:47:56,600 --> 00:48:00,300
family of God. 
Spiritually for God is a spirit,

739
00:48:00,300 --> 00:48:03,400
John 4, 23 and 24. 
Whenever were made in the image 

740
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:06,800
of God. 
For there is no partiality with 

741
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:10,900
God. 
No partiality James to James to 

742
00:48:10,900 --> 00:48:13,100
my brother, and do not hold the 
Faith of Our glorious. 

743
00:48:13,100 --> 00:48:16,000
Lord Jesus Christ with an 
attitude of personal favoritism.

744
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,300
New American Standard says, 
notice my brother's do not show 

745
00:48:19,300 --> 00:48:21,200
partiality, as you hold the 
Faith of Our Lord. 

746
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:24,200
Jesus Christ, the lord of Glory 
English Standard Version. 

747
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:30,700
The Bible says no partiality. 
There's something unique about 

748
00:48:30,700 --> 00:48:36,800
the Christian mindset. 
And that is a weird to have no 

749
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:38,500
partiality. 
I'm going to get really I'm 

750
00:48:38,500 --> 00:48:41,400
going to get into your business.
You ready? 

751
00:48:47,500 --> 00:48:48,700
Glenn. 
Have you ever married the 

752
00:48:48,700 --> 00:48:52,600
interracially married people? 
Yes, right here in Oklahoma 

753
00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:58,400
City. 
Is that something that's talked 

754
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:00,200
about the God? 
Is that all right with God, 

755
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:03,100
first of all, why are you even 
asking the question? 

756
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:07,700
Do you have to have a pre-check 
on the race race of somebody 

757
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:11,600
before you can marry them? 
Make sure they're not. 

758
00:49:13,100 --> 00:49:17,300
Hispanic, or Some other race or 
whatever, you know. 

759
00:49:19,700 --> 00:49:21,900
I don't know, I don't know my 
children, I don't know. 

760
00:49:21,900 --> 00:49:24,000
I want to be able to speak their
language, so I don't know if I 

761
00:49:24,008 --> 00:49:25,900
should marry Joseph banished 
person or not. 

762
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:34,100
I don't know if the thinking of 
some people You may be slightly 

763
00:49:34,100 --> 00:49:37,700
different. 
Are there may be a whole 

764
00:49:37,700 --> 00:49:42,300
spectrum of difference and God 
doesn't care. 

765
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:53,400
God doesn't care. 
That some of these as you might 

766
00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:56,300
not be able to say that not so 
that's unfortunate. 

767
00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:00,200
Because during the time of 
Christ, I think God and the Holy

768
00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:02,800
Spirit work, really hard to make
sure that never happened. 

769
00:50:05,500 --> 00:50:07,600
God wants to know if you're 
headed to the same place. 

770
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:10,400
If you have the same father, if 
you have the same inheritance, 

771
00:50:10,500 --> 00:50:12,900
all he wants all people to come 
to know him. 

772
00:50:13,900 --> 00:50:16,500
But my friends there is no 
partiality and we should not 

773
00:50:16,500 --> 00:50:18,900
hold the Faith of Our Lord. 
Jesus Christ. 

774
00:50:19,500 --> 00:50:24,300
Lord Of Glory with partiality. 
It's not a problem. 

775
00:50:25,100 --> 00:50:32,600
It's not a problem with God. 
First Samuel, 16 verse 7. 

776
00:50:32,900 --> 00:50:34,800
But the Lord God said to Samuel 
do not. 

777
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:38,300
Look at his appearance nor the 
height of his stature because I 

778
00:50:38,300 --> 00:50:40,500
have rejected him for God sees, 
not as man. 

779
00:50:40,500 --> 00:50:47,100
Sees for God sees not as man 
sees That's a pretty poured 

780
00:50:47,100 --> 00:50:50,600
statement for man. 
Looks at the outward appearance,

781
00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:57,400
but the Lord looks at the heart.
God was saying this Samuel about

782
00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:02,200
David. 
James 29, but if you show, 

783
00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:05,000
partiality, you're committing 
sin and convinced by the law as 

784
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,500
transgressors. 
Notice the new King James. 

785
00:51:07,500 --> 00:51:10,400
But if you show partiality, you 
were committing sin and 

786
00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:13,900
convicted by the law as 
transgressors, my friends, it's 

787
00:51:13,900 --> 00:51:17,700
a sin to have racism in our 
hearts. 

788
00:51:17,900 --> 00:51:22,400
It just is however, you are 
fulfilling the Royal law corny 

789
00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:23,900
to scriptures. 
You shall love your neighbor as 

790
00:51:23,908 --> 00:51:26,500
yourself. 
You are doing well. 

791
00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:32,900
But if you show partiality verse
9, you are committing sin and 

792
00:51:32,900 --> 00:51:34,500
are convicted by the block. 
That's the preface. 

793
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:39,800
That's just that, that's the 
verse just before this verse You

794
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:45,000
shall love your neighbor as 
yourself, my friends, there's no

795
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:48,400
place for this. 
The unity of the human race, 

796
00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:54,100
anyone made of one man, every 
nation of mankind to live on the

797
00:51:54,100 --> 00:51:57,000
surf, on the face of the Earth, 
having determined their 

798
00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:59,000
appointed times in the 
boundaries of their habitation. 

799
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:03,100
He made us all into this into 
this way. 

800
00:52:03,100 --> 00:52:05,900
We have overlooked the times of 
ignorance God is now declaring. 

801
00:52:05,900 --> 00:52:08,200
That all people everywhere 
should repent. 

802
00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:12,700
God will It's the whole world to
repair that acts 17:30, he wants

803
00:52:12,700 --> 00:52:15,000
everybody to hear the gospel and
be saved. 

804
00:52:15,100 --> 00:52:18,000
That's why we go into the whole 
world and preach the gospel 

805
00:52:18,300 --> 00:52:20,800
because he has fixed a day in 
which he will judge the world in

806
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:23,300
righteousness through that man. 
He is appointed, having 

807
00:52:23,300 --> 00:52:26,200
furnished proof to all men by 
raising him from dead. 

808
00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:30,300
There's the thing God wants us 
to go into a whole world. 

809
00:52:35,500 --> 00:52:39,100
Even though Christians are to 
exposed to accept diversity in 

810
00:52:39,100 --> 00:52:41,900
culture and race, it doesn't 
mean that we're supposed to 

811
00:52:41,900 --> 00:52:45,400
accept diversity in religion and
immorality. 

812
00:52:46,500 --> 00:52:48,400
No we can still say something is
right? 

813
00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:53,100
And something is wrong but 
racism is a sin of Pride. 

814
00:52:53,100 --> 00:52:58,000
Race makes no difference to God 
instead of focusing on the 

815
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,000
differences in the color of our 
skin, maybe we would all be 

816
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:04,100
served to concentrate on our 
similarities. 

817
00:53:04,100 --> 00:53:08,100
We are human made in the image 
of God and we're all in need of 

818
00:53:08,100 --> 00:53:13,400
in savior, we all have something
in common, the image of God, the

819
00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:16,400
image of God, God created man in
his own. 

820
00:53:16,408 --> 00:53:18,400
His own image in the image of 
God created. 

821
00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:22,400
He them male and female and 
female created, he them, God 

822
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:27,100
made us spiritual and a 
spiritual solution, is the only 

823
00:53:27,100 --> 00:53:29,100
solution to the problem of 
racism. 

824
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:33,500
Listen to this passage, I want 
you to write down This is 

825
00:53:33,500 --> 00:53:37,600
important significant passage 
First Corinthians, 12 verse 13. 

826
00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:42,000
We're all baptized by one spirit
that word baptized by one 

827
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:45,000
Spirit, or in one Spirit are /. 
Take of one Spirit. 

828
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:48,500
It all means that we share in 
the blessings that come from the

829
00:53:48,500 --> 00:53:52,100
one spirit of God. 
Whether Jews or Gentiles slaver,

830
00:53:52,100 --> 00:53:56,900
free, and we were all given the 
one Spirit to drink is a very 

831
00:53:56,900 --> 00:53:58,600
good translation of this 
passage. 

832
00:53:58,900 --> 00:54:01,600
We're all given to one Spirits 
drink First Corinthians, 12 

833
00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:05,700
verse 13, where We're all 
baptized, we're all to form. 

834
00:54:05,700 --> 00:54:08,900
The one body. 
This is God's desire. 

835
00:54:09,500 --> 00:54:15,300
This is how God looks at things.
Prove it Revelation there are 

836
00:54:15,300 --> 00:54:19,300
last verse Revelation 7 verse 9 
through 10. 

837
00:54:20,100 --> 00:54:22,900
And after these things, I looked
and behold a great multitude 

838
00:54:23,100 --> 00:54:33,600
which could not count from every
nation And all Prides and people

839
00:54:34,100 --> 00:54:38,600
and tongues standing Before the 
Throne and before the lamb 

840
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:43,600
clothed in white robes and Palms
breach of branches were in their

841
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:48,900
hands and they cried out with a 
loud voice saying salvation to 

842
00:54:48,900 --> 00:54:53,200
our God who sits on the throne 
and unto the lamb.
