When the real gospel is preached and men come to Christ, we're all brothers. So you don't need all this talk about better race relations. You can't create it by forcing people together. Only the gospel of the grace of God makes a man a brother of mine, and when he does, doesn't make much difference about his skin at all. That's not the important thing. Then we need to recognize as Martin Luther put it, “God creates out of nothing. Therefore, until a man is nothing, God can make nothing out of him.” And that is the message that should go out and the only message that can affect a sin-sick world at the present time.

Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.
