NO DISTINCTION
Today's reading:  Acts 15-16

"He made no distinction between us and them, for he also cleansed their hearts through faith."  Acts 15:9 NLT

One can read the Bible, especially the front half, and feel kind of, well--left out.

As non-Jewish people, we realize we're not a part of His chosen people.  We're from the 'wrong side of the tracks'.  We've got the wrong kind of blood running through our veins.

That is until you get to the new Testament.

Jesus died for us!

The un-Jews.

The ones originally scorned and considered unclean.

The ones lacking the Abrahamic DNA.

The ones who wouldn't have been allowed into the Temple!

He makes no distinction between us and them--'For God so loved the world...'!
