Anytime we acknowledge our differences we reinforce the divide. We must stop putting labels on people. Labels limit. No more “us” and “them.” No more “you people.” When we do this we create a chasm between people. When we rename or call someone something other than our brother/sister or neighbor, we give ourselves biblical permission not to love them.
It’s no longer a line that we must cross but becomes a hole that we must jump over. If we want to end racism, prejudice, bias, and discrimination we must stop digging away at the common ground that we should stand on.
This change requires us to build bridges, for some of us to stand in the gap. To be in the middle. That means some us may get stepped on in the process, but calling someone brother or sister is biblical, because when you get saved you don’t just get a Father, you get a family.
Step🚶🏽♂️3: Acknowledge me as your “brother” or “sister.”
About this Plan
What’s reconciliation? It’s “the restoration of friendly relations.” Biblically it is the restoration of right relationship. It’s all about relationships. It’s God’s desire for us to be restored to right relationship with Him, and reconciliation is that process. That is the Gospel, that Jesus reconciled us back to the Father.
