ALL OF US ARE "ONE BLOOD" ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE

We are inundated with the idea that there are different races surrounding the globe. And the different skin colors indicate them. The going misinformation is that these people are innately different from each other.

The Bible, as it does, informs us.  “And He has made all nations of men of one blood to dwell on all the face of the earth…” Acts 17:26,27.

All people are “one blood” with no race identifiable.  “For the life of the flesh is in the blood.” Give a dying person a blood transfusion of the same blood type and the person has hope.  Donated blood never “looks” at skin color: it gives the dying person life. Leviticus 17:11.

God gave us, His highest creation, mankind, “one blood”.  We are not “races” of people with greater or lesser value.  Every person ever born comes from Adam and Eve and is created in the image of God.  Every doctrine in the Bible that gives us hope and comfort and the gift of God which is eternal life through Jesus Christ our LORD, is for every person ever created:  all having the same intrinsic value: created in the image of God.

Even in the Law of Moses when the laws for servants were instituted, the differences in the lives and abilities of people were confronted.  A man who loses everything had hope. “And if your brother has become poor, and his hand has failed with you, then you shall help him; yes, even if he is a stranger or a tenant, so that he may live with you.” Leviticus 25:35.

The cure for America is the same as it has always been. “For all the Law is fulfilled in one word, even in this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’” Galatians 5:14.
