Col 3:10-11 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
KJV
When one speaks of freedom or liberty in Christ, who is that freedom for? For whom did Jesus Christ die to make free? What race, what class of people? Is it men or is it women, young or old, for whom did Jesus die to make free from sin’s bondage and hell? What race of people did Jesus give His life for and what race is excluded? I find in verse eleven that Christ died for all. Jesus did not give His life for any one race but for all. Jesus did not give His life for rich but not poor, poor but not rich, young but not old, old but not young, men but not woman, woman but not men, Jesus gave His life for all that all might have life and liberty in Him. The divide in our nation today is not of God and should be bridged by the gospel of Jesus Christ. Find for me in the Bible that one race of people Jesus Christ did not die for and then you could make a case for exclusion of one people or race. But you will not find that in the Bible and we should be able by the grace of God to bridge all gaps between all peoples. The only way to make this possible is to put on that new man, that man created in Christ Jesus.
