All One In ChristThroughout the world many Christians

come from different countries, cultures and

walks of life and yet we are all united under

the forgiving power of Jesus. In Romans

10:4, Paul highlights how through the belief

in Christ all are saved and cloaked under

the righteousness of the Lord.

“Christ is the end of the law so that there may berighteousness for everyone who believes”.

God sent Jesus, His Son, so that salvation was

made available to all nations and through our

commitment to Christ we

became brothers and sisters

in the Lord despite our dif-

ferences. In Romans 10:12-

13 Paul argues that al-though there may be earthly

differences between believ-

ers, the heavenly nature of

Jesus does not see these

differences but views be-

lievers equally no matter

what their background.

“For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile-the same Lord is Lord of all and richly

blesses all who call on him, for, “Everyone whocalls on the name of the Lord will be saved”.

Recently I was reading „The Heavenly Man‟ the true story of Liu Zhenying or Brother Yun

as he is known by his Christian friends, a Chi-

nese Christian who was called to the Lord

from a poor

village in He-

nan Province to preach the gospel despite the

persecution he faced from the authorities.

Not only did this testimony provide an in-

sight into Christian life in a different coun-

tries but it also emphasises the commonalityin the blessing and power of Christ across

the world.

Although Brother Yun encountered a differ-

ent experience in coming to Christ, all

throughout the book rather than focusing on

his sufferings for following

Jesus, he spoke about the

redeeming power and for-

giving nature of Jesus Christand how through the assis-

tance of Christians both

within and outside of China

more souls are becoming

members of God’s heavenly

family.

In encountering the testimo-

nies of Christians around the world, we as a

family in Christ can learn and be encouraged

through observing the power of God and his

miraculous works in bringing people such as

Brother Yun to the saving arms of Jesus.

“May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face shine upon us, that your ways be

known on earth, your salvation among all na-

tions” Psalm 67:1-3.
