Featured What is the Christian theological response to racism?

What you have judged about George Floyd is an accusation from hell.
The lie is all yours.

 

You don't trust him?

 

He had a violent felony record.
He had Meth in his system.
He was being arrested for another crime.
Facts. Not lies.
Keep on having your temper tantrum. Whatever you do, dont list any facts. Simply continue with your name calling and groundless blustering.
Show me how you have decided I judged Floyd based on race. I readily admit I judged him, but race was not a factor in my judgment.

 

All I ever see is "White, non hispanic".

 

First, we need to define terms.

Race is based on appearance.
Ethnicity on culture.
Nationality on citizenship.

This SAT prep website has a useful table at the top for the dictionary definitions.

Race vs. Ethnicity vs. Nationality: All You Need to Know

Race does exist, but honestly the bible does not really use it to divide up people groups like we do in America.

Adam is everyone's forebear, to include Eve. His very name in Hebrew makes him a kind of representative of mankind. Now do his children vary in appearance, yes. Race is real, as you say, so is ethnicity because of the sin at Babel, and so is nationality thanks to people like Nimrod.

The bible mentions a holy nation called Israel descended from Abraham and the Patriarchs. However, in Christ we find Jew and Gentile united by faith in Jesus Christ as children of God Himself. Irrespective of race, culture, biological forebears, or nation.

 

No, it's a fourth category. I'm sorry if I did not make that clear. The biblical three may better be,

Ethnicity, Nationality, and for lack of a better term I'll call it "Heritage." Heritage is based on our forebears, since God's wisdom blesses the offspring of the righteous in addition to the righteous themselves. Abraham and the Patriarchs are prime examples.

 

I've shown you. Your heart is too hard and your pride is too great for you to repent. God will break you and then you will see. "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised."

 

You have done nothing but spew rhetoric and make false accusations.

 

If your tongue were a grinding wheel, I would love to borrow it to sharpen my lawnmower blades. It would be a whole lot quicker than my usual filing!!!
(But then if I were not real careful, I would grind the blade to scrap pronto!!)

Seriously, do ever read what you post??
Seriously II, do you believe what you post??

 

Seriously, do you ever repent when you see sin in your life? Racism is sin. Paul called out Peter for his wicked form of racism against Gentiles. I will call out Christians who are openly being racists on the Baptist Board. I have no problem making people uncomfortable when they display the sinfulness of racism.

 

You obviously just respond haphazardly, so, AFAIC this puts you in a category of a couple of others that never answer, but just give snarky replies, ergo don't bother responding to this one, as you are now on "IGNORE"!
