The first man over the berm gives other men the courage to join the charge.
The first man to speak the truth publicly gives other men the courage to do the same.

There is absolutely no (good) reason we should be using “Gentile” in English; we should look to Luther’s German translation and simply use the words we already have in English for this Greek term (εθνος) — nation and heathen.
‘So that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles [sic], so that we might receive the promised Spirit through faith.’ (ESV)
‘That the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles [sic] in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.’ (NKJV)
‘Auf daß der Segen Abrahams unter die Heiden käme in Christo Jesu und wir also den verheißenen Geist empfingen durch den Glauben.’
‘Ut in gentibus benedictio Abrahae fieret in Christo Iesu ut pollicitationem Spiritus accipiamus per fidem.’
‘ἵνα εἰς τὰ ἔθνη ἡ εὐλογία τοῦ Ἀβραὰμ γένηται ἐν ⸉Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ⸊, ἵνα τὴν ⸀ἐπαγγελίαν τοῦ πνεύματος λάβωμεν διὰ τῆς πίστεως.’

Luther did not make this error when translating into German.

“Racism must be taught.” is a true statement.
The part they do not want you to realize is that it is most often taught by exposure to other races.

You could produce wine from the same land for a billion years and never drink the same bottle twice.
God has already given us a taste of eternity here in time.

Sometimes there are no truly good solutions to problems. If you, in a fit of madness, hacked off your foot, I cannot give you advice that will regrow your foot, but I can tell you to get a prosthetic or hop.

The church should draw one’s eyes heavenward, and this is no less true of the building than it is of dogma, doctrine, and praxis.
Ugly church buildings are an affront.
