Ethnic Harmony 2020 North Campus Seminar
Ethnic harmony is a controversial issue in our culture, and the Bible says a lot about it.
In the Ethnic Harmony Seminar at the North Campus on Saturday, January 18, 9am–Noon, I plan to focus on understanding and applying what the Bible says about ethnicity by unpacking eight propositions:
-
God created every human in his image.
-
Humans in the Bible’s storyline are multiethnic.
-
God’s global plan to save sinners includes people from every ethnic group.
-
God approves of interethnic marriage.
-
God’s people must love their neighbors across ethnic lines.
-
The church—both Jewish and Gentile Christians—must maintain the unity (including ethnic harmony) that Christ powerfully created.
-
The church should pursue ethnic diversity.
-
The church should love justice, which entails treating all ethnicities justly and encouraging its members to pursue justice in society.
We plan to end with Q&A, for which two brothers plan to join me: Steven Lee and Lewis Guest IV.
Hope to see you there!
