Are you down with diversity? In other words, are you a fan or okay with diversity? Sadly, many people have given in to the notion that their race is the superior race and should reign supreme over all others.
This way of thinking gives birth to a very dangerous weapon used by the devil – racism. Racism is built on the foundation of hatred and contempt for others. When fully developed and embraced, it separates us as a nation and fosters an “Us versus Them” mentality. At its core, murder results.
Racism seeks to destroy God’s command mentioned in Matthew 22:38, “…Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.” It is in direct violation of this command. Is that really what we want?
Note 2 self: God is the author of diversity. He created everything. Everywhere we look we see His fondness for diversity. So clearly, God endorses it. For those who believe in God and yet hates his brother because he looks different, I have one question for you. Do you really think there is a separation in heaven for the various races of people? Everything that is in me says NO! We are all God’s people. He loves us all. In heaven, we will all be one big happy family.
So to the question, are you down with diversity? I am, what about you?
Blessings to you all, my friends.
