Racism

I believe there is plenty of discrimination and prejudice to spread around. But I believe that racism is a sin against God Himself. I am a caucasian woman, and yet I have seen more injustice done to people of color than I have seen done to women. Racism is slowly dying, thank the Lord God, but not as fast as it should be dying.

When will some people stop believing that African-American people are not souls belonging to God? Just as people believe there is a living God and that they, themselves belong to Him, so do people of color; just the color of one's skin makes absolutely no difference in the mind of God, not that I know the mind of God, but I know that God is a loving and approachable God and it is beyond my belief that He would discriminate amongst His children, whom have great faith in Him and the salvation of His Son Jesus Christ.

Injustice through the form of racism is still rampant in our society today and it makes me feel frightened as this is pure ignorance, and ignorance is a frightening thing, it lends itself to become judgemental, and then leads to unjust action, which causes great suffering.

I pray with all my might that God sees the injustice both of the racism in caucasian society and in the African-American society, and I pray to God to remove it from the hearts of all men living in the earth today. A very lofty prayer, but never-the-less, God has the Power to eradicate racism of all kinds.

Can you see that by eradicating racism, most of the trouble of the entire world would be resolved? Racism against the tribes of the Jewish People, racism against the Arab Nations, racism against the Catholic Religion, racism against true Islam and the beauty of the Quran, racism against the Bible and Christianity, I could go on and on.

What peace there wold be in the world, what a wonderous and beautiful world this would be to live in once again, reverting back to as close to Eden as is possible.

People must believe that this 'thing' called racism is a tool of satan, the adversary. A tool he uses to gather to himself souls that would otherwise belong to the Almighty God and the battle rages on in the Heavens and on earth, until the Day in Jesus Christ comes again with new name and a purpose that we believers know as the Rapture.

We believers pray with much intense fervor, that we are welcomed into the arms of my Lord on that day of days and I want more than ANYTHING ELSE to be counted among His sheep, and lead straight into the Kingdom of God!
