PASTOR TIM JUPP

DEI; A CLEAR CUT CASE

This story is the turning point of ‘The Acts of The Apostles’.                                              No human being is common or unclean. Nobody is to be spurned, shunned, rejected, despised because of his ethnic origin or race or culture or physical traits or social restraints. All of us have a history and all come to the foot of the cross the same way! Repentance of prejudice is not easy or quick but is necessary for individual and ecclesiastical health.

Billy Graham famously said, "Christianity is not a white man's religion and don't let anyone tell you it's white or black. Christ belongs to all people."

"At once this changed the views of the apostles and of the early Christians; gave them new, large, and liberal conceptions of the gospel; broke down all their long-cherished prejudices; taught them to look upon all men as their brethren; and impressed their hearts with the truth, never after to be eradicated."
