Risen Church Nc

Racism is a choice weapon of the enemy because of how great an offense and affront it is to God. We all are made in His image, and our different colors reflects the many shades of His Radiant Glory. Hatred of any kind is an offense to God, but hatred towards any aspect of His glorious image is perhaps the most vile offense. That's what makes racism so repugnant and intolerable to God. It seeks to spread hatred to the most possible people, based on a lowest common denominator, using God's glorious reflection as a weapon. Herein is why Christians must speak up: Because only Christianity can bring an end to racism. Only the Gospel can bring true reconciliation. It is ultimately God’s image that has been disgraced in racism, and Jesus alone restores humanity to our Creator’s image.
