     | 2,416 views

    Prejudice causes us to treat others as inferior which is inappropriate for a Christian. The Holy Spirit does not discriminate. God is no respecter of person. Jesus mingled with sinners. For the next of kin to reject Ruth because he did not want to stain his honor was prejudicial.

And that appeared to be the right message for a hurt and frightened world. Love is all you need. It’s all ...read more
