instructing us to love and respect one another

regardless of skin color, but HE was also warning us
against unforgiveness. When HE said, whoever calls his
brother “Raca”, HE was warning us against holding such

enmity in our hearts that could lead us to falsely speak
words against another person with intent to scorn them

with stinging or degrading humiliation. This is one of the
original Ten Commandment sins; namely, bearing false

witness.

A person who spitefully or falsely scorns another with

words they do not deserve risks committing this sin.
Thus, calling someone “racist” (to gain a political edge,

or advance some social agenda) is a sin that CHRIST tells
us will lead to hell-fire judgement. In fact, no faithful

Christian should allow oneself to even gloat when
hearing another person or group undeservingly being

called or labeled as “racist”, simply to degrade the victim
or gain political leverage! This is among the most

degrading terms that one can call another person today.

The time is urgent for faithful Christians to unite with

one accord. We must live Martin Luther King Jr.’s

“Dream” ; our skin colors have no bearing on individual
character. Under this dream, we rely on the
reconciliation that CHRIST has given to pour comfort and

healing on the wounds of the “racial” transgressions
