(And We Are All God’s People)

“How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!” - Psalm 133:1

This verse invites us to consider two central questions. Who are God’s people?  How do we live together? 

In the first creation story included in the Hebrew Scriptures, we discover that all humanity is created in God’s image. In the second we are described as descendants from the same family. 

Jesus urged us to love our neighbors as ourselves. When asked for clarity, he went on to describe our neighbors in such a way that no one was excluded. 

When the early Jesus followers baptized, they declared that the divisions of race and religion, class and status, and gender were no more. They were one in Christ. 

I’m not sure how we as God’s children will ever figure out how to live in unity until we come to understand that we are all God’s children.
