No Jew nor Greek

For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. – Galatians 3.27-29

Our little church is made up of all kinds of folks. We are black and brown and white. We are from Ireland, the US, England, Angola, Romania, South Africa, Poland, the Philippines, Nigeria, Moldova, and I think that is all. You would think that it would be a place of great diversity. How can people from so many backgrounds in such a small church have anything in common?

It’s because we have the one thing in common that really matters. In Chist all those barriers are broken down. Nothing divides us – not race nnor colour nor nationality nor social status nor wealth or poverty, not any other thing makes a difference in the body of Christ, We find perfect unity in our diversity.

It’s not just our church. Its every member of the body of Christ all over the world. No matter where we go we can have family fellowship when we meet other believers.

None of us are better or worse than any other because of who we are or where we came from. We are all one as the body of Christ and cannot be divided any more than our body can.
