The Wisdom's Call v. Racism and Patriotism

Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.”(Luke 21:10). This is the ultimate truth. What is different between nationalism, patriotism and racism? There is nothing wrong for one race to love or being loved more by or to its own race. Naturally people love their own family more than loving others. So it’s just normal that a person may love his or her own race more when compared to others, but of course not to God. The Lord’s teachings in Romans 12 and 1 Corinthians 13 are the solution I trust. We are required to love each other and to hate evil, not a person. “But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. …” (Matthew 5:39) A racist or racism is not an evil if not by hate and discrimination. By love the racist, nationalist and patriot can exist and live together, but these all will be ruined by hate. So let’s promote love and preach the gospel of Christ in praising God. “I have given you authority to … overcome all the power of the enemy.”(Luke 10:19) Thanks be to God in Jesus’s name.

Proverbs 8:12-17

12“I, wisdom, dwell together with prudence;

I possess knowledge and discretion.

13To fear the Lord is to hate evil;

I hate pride and arrogance,

evil behavior and perverse speech.

14Counsel and sound judgment are mine;

I have insight, I have power.

15By me kings reign

and rulers issue decrees that are just;

16by me princes govern,

and nobles—all who rule on earth.

17I love those who love me,

and those who seek me find me.

Romans 6:3-4

Dead to Sin, Alive in Christ

3Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 4We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.

Revelation14:6-13

The Three Angels

6Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth—to every nation, tribe, language and people. 7He said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea and the springs of water.”

8A second angel followed and said, “ ‘Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great,’ which made all the nations drink the maddening wine of her adulteries.”

9A third angel followed them and said in a loud voice: “If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives its mark on their forehead or on their hand, 10they, too, will drink the wine of God’s fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. 11And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.” 12This calls for patient endurance on the part of the people of God who keep his commands and remain faithful to Jesus.

13Then I heard a voice from heaven say, “Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.”

“Yes,” says the Spirit, “they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them.”
