*TODAY'S TEXT*
James 2:1-9
*MESSAGE*
My uncle once visited us and demanded water being my favourite uncle, I served him water in a special cup without hesitation. Then he asked me if l could use that special cup for any other person whom I didn't know. No, I said. His message was that I should treat everybody equally. This is the golden rule formula; treat others the way you want to be treated. The objective is to show kindness to everyone.
Most times we see discrimination among believers, especially when it comes to do with sharing of food or items. Discrimination is never done concerning honour but a show of belittling an individual or group of people who you do not like or are not from your place or your class. Such is not an attitude of a child of God.
Today, God is calling us to treat people equally. Be accommodative and accessible, as such more souls can be won into the kingdom of God. Don't discriminate. We are all created in the image of God. Paul said There is neither Jews nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you, are all one in Christ". With this understanding, believers can live by the golden rule.
