<i>Veritas est Immortalis</i>: NO Racial Divisions in the Church!!!

Veritas est Immortalis

"If the Church is not in possession of truth, truth as an understanding that corresponds exactly to what is in reality, and...exactly to what is in the will and character of God, then it has been left speechless. It has nothing to say" (David Wells). But never forget: "Divine Truth is immortal, and though it may long be bound, scourged, crowned with thorns, crucified and laid in a grave, yet on the third day it will rise again victoriously and will reign and triumph eternally" (Hubmaier).

NO Racial Divisions in the Church!!!

Please read this excellent exposition of Ephesians 2:11-22 by Senior Pastor of First Baptist Church of Grand Cayman, Thabiti Anyabwile.

I loved this part:

"And this passage promises far greater unity than we might imagine. It speaks directly to unity across racial and ethnic lines. This should make us zealous in our pursuit of multi-ethnic unity in the church. It tells us plainly that racism is completely incompatible with following Jesus. The two are oil and water, mutually exclusive. I wonder if the cross holds out far more power than we actually preach and emphasize."
