In The Name Of Love
Today marks the 40th anniversary of the death of the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., and we want to pause for a moment to remember Dr. King and the civil rights battle that he undertook before he was felled by an assassin's bullet on April 4, 1968, in Memphis, Tennessee.
When I think of Dr. King, I am reminded of two verses:
Revelation 7:9 (NIV) - "I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people, and language."
Galatians 3:28 (NIV) - "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."
Heaven will be a rainbow of colors, featuring people from every nation, race, and ethnicity, and all because of the fact that we are all one in Christ Jesus. Such Christ-centered unity was the hallmark of Dr. King, and it is what he fought and died for, all in the name of love.
