Diversity & Tolerance

Diversity and tolerance are hot topics in societal circles these days.  I think God delights in the plethora of differences His human creatures possess. John the Revelator wrote: "...I looked, and there was a great number of people, so many that no one could count them. They were from every nation, tribe, people, and language of the earth...."  Here the Book of Revelation describes the final gathering of God’s people, all are different. Human differences are to be celebrated, tolerated, and incorporated in our goal of being “one” in our maker. However, when diversity is misused or distorted; when it becomes a political slogan; when it's treated as sacred; when diversity itself is revered rather than the One who created diversity, then it's time to reexamine our fervor. Is your motive for tolerance and diversity motivate by love, forgiveness and grace or selfishness and hatred? Going a little deeper this Sunday. Peace...Pastor Keith
