Since our struggle is not against flesh and blood but against the evil that pollutes our hearts our only hope is a spiritual solution—regeneration. The rioting and looting that is happening in our cities is proof positive that any policy or program designed to right societal wrongs will fail unless it recognizes humanity’s inherit sinfulness and accounts for it. Only God can eradicate the evil that lives in our hearts. Only God deliver us from racism that is tearing our country apart. Only God can deliver us from the violence that is destroying our cities. Only God can make us one race in Christ Jesus.
“There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.”
— Galatians 3:28 (NIV)
Lord Jesus, transforms us, make us a new creation, a holy nation. In Your holy name I pray. Amen.
