“And He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place,”
Acts 17:26 (one human race)
We can’t understand the brokenness we encounter in and around us without acknowledging that sin genuinely exists. And we are 100% deceived if we think healing happens anywhere other than the cross. So when it comes to the sin of arrogance/pride (which promotes racism), why would we look to any other source for help… but the Gospel alone? Friends, we need God’s wisdom and perspective in all things…especially in regards to Justice. With this in view, God’s Word (the Bible) is essential!
Chantel Monique Duson, co-founder of The Center for Biblical Unity, wants to be a part the healing process. She is working tirelessly as to help others both view and pursue Justice God’s way…Biblically. Reconciliation happens through transformed hearts, and changed hearts result when the Gospel replaces secular wisdom. Again, we need God’s help!
And He gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes.
Ephesians 4:11-14 (discernment)
Per Monique, the mission of The Center for Biblical Unity is “to use Scripture to define terms like humanity, race, love, and justice. We also want to bring practical tools for clergy and lay people to walk out the ideals of racial unity and biblical justice.” She explains that “in a culture polarized by race, and where conversations about race often lead to division, strife, and blame, the Center For Biblical Unity exists to lead respectful and Bible-centered conversations on race, unity, and justice.”
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
Galatians 3:28 (one family in Christ Jesus)
Friends, please consider watching the video above as well as following both Monique Duson and The Center for Biblical Unity on social media, YouTube, or via TCBU’s website: https://www.centerforbiblicalunity.com/resources Keep praying fervently, live in God’s Word, and dive into Gospel-driven community… With God’s help, we will witness true transformation occur.
Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.”
Ephesians 4:15-16
