World Evangelization Day 139
Members of the denominational body have always squabbled over their differences. One of the earliest church controversies concerned the difference between Jewish and Gentile Christians. Some Gentiles were eating meat offered to idols and were criticized by the Jewish Christians who wanted them to keep all the Law's ceremonies and regulations.
In another instance we read that, "The Grecian Jews among them complained against the Hebraic Jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food."1 The two earliest denominations squabbled over solutions to these issues and remind us of their recent counterparts.Christ himself breaks down the wall which divides Jews and Gentiles. He brings both together in one Body. Denominations need to know that in Jesus, "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."2
1Acts 6.1 2Galatians 3.28.
