NO JEW; NO GENTILES
Main text: Galatians 3:13-14 ‘ Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the Law, being made a curse for us; for it is written cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree. That the blessings of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ: that we might receive the promise of the spirit through faith”.
Acts 10:45 – “And they of the circumcision, which believed were astonished, as many as come also was poured out the gift of Holy Spirit.
The Jews are those who came from Abraham’s bossom. The Gentiles are seen as sinners, unbelievers, publican, and the uncircumcised but today, we are the adopted people to Abraham as seen from the main text. Jesus Christ had redeemed us from slavery, from the curse of the Law and we are the adopted sons/daughters of Abraham.
‘Alleluia’. We are now free, so no Jews and no Gentiles. The book of Matthew 9;10-12 affirmed it all, when Jesus Christ sat at meat in the house of Matthew, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with Him and His disciples. And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto the disciples of Jesus, why eateth your master with publicans and sinners?
When Jesus heard that, He said to them, “They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick” in Matthew 9:12. Jesus Christ further said that He had not come to call the righteous, but sinner to repentance.
Beloved of God, don’t condemn yourself and don’t be intimidated due to your past. Only trust in our Lord Jesus Christ, accept Him as your personal Lord and savior and He will see you through, Amen.
Prayer: O Lord God, let my prayers come to you as a memorial and be accepted unto you like that of Cornelius Amen.
