Only Peace and Unity
To advocate for diversity is to do nothing but to promote
segregation. It builds walls and labels people. Animosity thrives due to the
friction between factions that diversity creates.
Diversity advocating is a power struggle. It is an attempt
for one group to gain advantage and control over another.
“But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are
made nigh by the blood of Christ. For he is our peace, who hath made both one,
and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us” (Ephesians
2:13-14)
Jesus Christ is our peace, the tranquility of soul we so
desperately seek. Through Christ the wall of hatred that diversity creates and
promotes is knocked down. With Jesus Christ the wall of division is no more.
The nearer to Christ we get, the closer to each other we become. Think of a
triangle with Jesus as the top point and you and I as the two base points. As
we rise towards Jesus the distance between you and I gets less and less.
Eventually when each of us is in Jesus and Jesus is in you and me, we then
become one together in the unity of Christ.
There is no division, diversity or the strife it creates in
Jesus. Only peace and unity.
