I've lived all over the U.S., from California to New Jersey, South Carolina to North Dakota. I've lived 8 years overseas together with traveled inwards scores of unusual countries. And I've learned that most people shout out upward their county, region, race, civilization or subculture are the best.
This is fine unless it divides us, makes us experience superior, makes us insensitive to others, or makes us prideful.
God's household unit of measurement is our most of import heritage together with His household unit of measurement is multi-cultural, multi-racial, together with multi-denominational.
If heritage, family, income, education, country, race, or civilization makes us experience superior, we're grieving the Holy Spirit. (See Ephesians 4:29-32 & James 2:1-9)
"Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, together with self-control" are to a greater extent than of import to God than culture, race, linguistic communication or heritage (Galatians 5:22-23).
We must surrender anything together with everything that pulls us from dear for God together with others. And this way carefully thinking most the things nosotros tell together with practice inwards calorie-free of the Golden Rule.
Why? Because Jesus is our truthful home, family, together with heritage.
