Greetings to you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ who united the divisions.
God said that everyone who believes and accepts Jesus can become a child of God. Jn 1:12
Jews were not to associate for anything with Non-Jewish (Gentiles). They were also commanded not to marry or have any relationship with them. Deu 7: 3, Exo 34:15-16
While, Jesus Christ fulfilled the law (given to Israelites) on the cross. (10+603=613 commandments given through law of Moses). He completed the law and established/signed the New Testament / New Command / New Agreement for everyone in the world, including Israelites. Rom 10: 4, Jer 31:31, 2 Cor 3: 6; Heb 8:6-13, 9:15, 10:16-17, 12:24, 13:20
We are living under that new age / Testament / New Covenant period.
It reminds us everytime when we partake grape juice at the Lord's Supper. 1 Cor 11:25
Thus, it is a betrayal of God's command to see the difference between (mostly in India) the upper caste, lower caste, my caste, my sect even - in defiance of the Lord's command to accept all in the New Testament age which does not show any difference! Matt 28: 19-20
It is as like as disregarding the crucifixion of the Lord as trivial, if that does not made any difference after becoming Christian. It’s an utter betrayal of the crucified Christ by anyone who identifies himself with any race in the guise of Christianity! Matt. 28: 19-20, Eph. 2: 14-16
Anyone is baptised, he(she) becomes a *Christian*.
Its nonsense and ignorance if you identify yourself as;
BC Christian,
SC / ST Christian,
Nadar Christian,
Mudaliar Christian,
Pillai Christian,
Parayar Christian,
Vanniyar Christian,
Etc along with numerous divisions in your name, in society and in the marriage bond. Gal. 3:28, Isa. 65: 5, Luke 7: 29-30.
If caste is important;
Identify your caste alone… not to defame Christ.
No caste discrimination can be identified within Christianity.
*Caste definition is Hinduism*.
If caste is necessary then why do you need Christ?
We put on Christ when we are baptized. Gal. 3:27.
We are part of the body of Christ. Acts 2:47, Rom. 12: 5
How can anyone be a part of the body of Christ and identify himself as a Gentile or a sect?
The body of the Most High God;
For meager government concessions
Or for worldly honor
For blood hysteria
For racism
In the guise of being a Christian
If you require to identify yourself;
Beware that at the gates of heaven the eternity will be lost.
Abandon the caste identity and convert to *Christianity*.
Disguised preachers should come out from this first this bondage.
Eternal honor and victory are given by Christ *not your caste or race*.
Anyone who sees us must see Christ. Not your caste !! Col. 3:11, Gal. 3:16, 2:20
Truth (Reality) will come out automatically when disguise is removed.
