The Problems of Prejudice
Oct 8, 2023 • Dr. Jeff Schwarzentraub
Pastor Jeff emphasized the transformative power of faith in Jesus Christ, highlighting that true believers experience radical life changes, including the shedding of prejudices and biases. He challenged the congregation to recognize that personal favoritism is a sin that disrupts the unity God desires among His people, urging them to treat everyone equally as creations made in God's image. Through the teachings in the Book of James, Pastor Jeff affirmed that love—modeled by Jesus—is essential in overcoming prejudice and demonstrating genuine faith. The call to action is to show mercy and love to all, reflecting Christ's compassion, while also remaining steadfast in truth and convictions.
