diminished world view

Wednesday February 20^th, Romans 10: 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." In God’s view there are no second class citizens, no one deserving of “minimum” wage, no one to be denied the right of marriage, no don’t ask or tell, no one we can indiscriminately drop bombs on or hope the drones aim correctly, no one who is an “other.”  For Christ there is no difference. All are richly blessed, all are our brothers and sisters, our children and grandchildren and all are called to the kingdom.  Some respond in ways that are different than our ways and we can debate the merits of these ways, but to deny that we all are all the children of God is sheer folly and the ones making that claim are the one who suffer with its diminished world view and diminished kingdom view.
