Everything else is window dressing; distinctions without a difference.CRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03231394164372721485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-90873519338912153832014-01-29T19:13:41.151-05:002014-01-29T19:13:41.151-05:00It's tiresome of have guys like Randy and Leon...<i>It's tiresome of have guys like Randy and Leon presume to lecture white Christians on the history of race relations when they themselves seem to be pretty ignorant of the actual history.</i><br /><br />It may not just be that white Christians naturally tend to surround themselves with other white Christians. Since, black Christians probably also naturally tend to surround themselves with other black Christians. Same with any other ethnic group. It's just natural that when you go to church, you want to be ministered to by other like-minded and like-cultured people. I suspect that many people feel that all week long at work they've had to struggle with their differences with co-workers and that going to church shouldn't be another place where one has to struggle with conflicts and differences. Rather it should be a place of rest and familial-like acceptance. I'm all for inter-ethnic and inter-cultural churches. But that's not the only kind that's permissible. During the first century, the Gentiles Christians weren't required to adopt the Jewish Messianic culture and vice versa. The REAL PROBLEM is not segregation in the churches, it's lack of proper doctrine. Only once the doctrine is corrected will people's heart be corrected too. Which includes a right attitude toward other ethnic and cultural groups along with one's own.ANNOYED PINOYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00714774340084597206noreply@blogger.com
