Papa, I am thinking this
The reason the terms white privilege and police brutality are all over the media now is because the word racism no longer sufficiently whips up enough violence. White privilege and police brutality are now the hot buttons to stir hatred, and the agenda of the political machine. I think this continuous stream of hot button words are additionally used hoping to cower millions of people into shame and guilt for acts they did not commit nor for which they can atone or erase. I think brutality exists both within and beyond the organizations of law enforcement. I think corruption is abounding and I am afraid for this Nation.
if You know this is not true, please correct me and show me what is true. If any of this thinking is founded in truth I am asking You to intervene on our behalf. I know we as a people do not deserve Your mercy or grace but I am asking please grace us with Your intervention and with conviction and repentance I pray.

DISCRIMINATION
Racism is NOT going to be stopped in America as we are presently responding because racism is a symptom; it is not the cause of the chaos and hate we are experiencing.
The measures thus far being taken are not even a band-aid on the massive hemorrhaging. After the election perhaps there will be a lull but I am not counting on that and even if there is there will be a regrouping. I hope my hope is sound and that there are more people who know the truth than we are shown by the media.
In my world black on white and white on black hate is rarely seen by these eyes of mine – the last time I remember an incident of either was the day after the election of the first term of President Obama. It occurred in the parking lot of Walmart provoked only by the paleness of my skin. I remember it because it is in sharp contrast to my daily experience. I am in awe and grateful!
It’s like this, ALL could have a similar living style because GOD is no respecter of persons.
Albeit, His Way must be chosen (daily) and few do that.
The road to hell, chaos, hatred, discrimination, and every other complaint and demand we are hearing are SYMPTOMS; not the cause of what we are seeing.
DISCRIMINATION toward GOD is the cause. The customary word is SIN.
When we let GOD deal with our SIN we are healed and healed people don’t have the symptom of racism. And if you don’t believe me take it up GOD; listen to Him and He will enlighten you.
Acts 10:34 (KJV) 34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: Matthew 7:12-14 (NASB) 12 “In everything, therefore, treat people the same way you want them to treat you, for this is the Law and the Prophets. 13 “Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. 14 For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it. source
ANYONE
Have Christians strayed from Scripture?
Have Christians adopted the world’s ways of addressing human maladies and injustices?
When Yeshua walked the sands of Judea in His GODMAN body the Romans were cruel and dictatorial, intoxicated with power. They beat, killed, and taxed the Jews to poverty and that was just for starters. Yet in Scripture, I find no recordings of Yeshua organizing groups to march in the streets with signs and angry shouts; nor kill Roman officers, loot, or burn Roman businesses. (No. I am not saying Christians are doing the latter.) Neither have I found it recorded that He instructed His disciples to do so. There was that time Peter got heated and afraid and sliced off a man’s ear and Yeshua immediately put it back and instructed Peter otherwise. (Check it out at Luke 22:49-51 and John 18:10-11) The Bible tells me Jesus went about preaching His Gospel, feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and fellowshipping with A N Y O N E who wanted His company.
How are we stacking up?
