There is absolutely no room for prejudice in the life of a Christian. It's that simple. It destroys relationships and causes pain. Most people think of being prejudice, as pertaining only to race, but it actually encompasses gender, social class, age, nationality, or disability as well. It's an unreasonable way of thinking that leads to attitudes and actions that motivate you to do things that you otherwise, would never do. How sad that people are judged by the color of their skin, the way they speak, the country they belong to, or the sins of their ancestors. Prejudice is alive and well in virtually every nation. No country is exempt. If only we could see others as Jesus sees. In God's eyes, all are created equal; there is no one person or groups of people that are superior or better than another. God doesn't love anyone more or less because of his age, color of skin, or social class. I encourage you to read each of the texts below, and you will see that the Bible makes it very clear that all are created equal, and we are to love all our fellow man. There is only one way to end prejudice, and that is to ask God to give you love in your heart for everyone, replacing contempt with compassion and hatred with love. Stomp out prejudice. One act of kindness at a time.
1 Samuel 16:7 KJV - But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for [the LORD seeth] not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.
John 7:24 KJV - Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
Romans 2:11 KJV - For there is no respect of persons with God.
1 John 4:19-20 KJV - We love him, because he first loved us. If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
