“In this new life it doesn’t matter if you are a Greek or a Jew, circumcised or not. It doesn’t matter if you speak a different language or even if you are a Scythian. It doesn’t matter if you are a slave or free. Christ is all that matters, and He is in all of you.” Colossians 3:11 (ERV)
Christ is equally available to all of us and when you choose to accept Jesus Christ as your Saviour, your life begins anew. And in this new life, Christ is all that matters.
Colossians 3:11 clearly points out that when living as a follower of Christ, one’s nationality, or race, or physical appearance, or social status or education is unimportant. Too often, even after receiving Christ as Saviour, we quibble about many things that, in the big scheme of things, really do not matter. So much emphasis is placed upon those things, that we lose sight of what is really important and meaningful.
As followers of Christ we are to place our unbridled attention upon Him and living a renewed life recreated in His image because, when all is said and done Christ is all that matters.
Amen†
