Dear Editor,
Most people want to make the world a better place, but they use their standard of good which in reality is far from good.
Righteousness is the perfect holiness of Christ. It is an essential attribute of the character of God; quite literally meaning “One who is right”. Think of it as the polar opposite of sin. To commit sin is to go against God’s design for our lives, therefore righteousness is the only living standard that is acceptable for us to stand before the Father. The wages of sin is death, but in the path of righteousness is life, and in its pathway, there is no death. Proverbs 12:28
This goes across all races. When it comes to a subject or matter people look at the person’s color before listening and observing or analyzing the facts.
This is very immature thinking and surprisingly many so-called Christians think like that. Some people think in this manner: If you disagree with something I believe in and you are of a different color you must be a bigot, a racist. That is the victim mentality. Those people have an inferiority complex.
That mentality leaves no room for reasoning and debating. We have to defend good and righteousness, not color.
If you observe politics especially in the USA a group of people will vote loyal to a political party even though that party has done nothing to help their communities in 75 years, because they are brainwashed that the other party is racist.
Some people you can deceive easily by acting like them and telling them you like their color of skin, try speaking like them, when the reality you could care less about them. When your values are not of righteousness you can be deceived easily. Small-minded people see color first before observing the truth and wrong or right. But superior thinking which is righteousness observes the truth of the facts and if something is wrong or right. They look at color last. Color of skin does not decide if you are a good or bad person and education does not decide if you are a good or bad person. Only a righteous character pleasing to God the father of Jesus decides what good is.
The conclusion always defends righteousness, not the color of skin.
