All the Same
I was watching a disaster movie called “Volcano” in which there is a volcanic eruption in the city of Los Angeles. As in all disaster movies there are deaths, injuries, people banding together to help each other, and there is also your usual share of mean people. By the end of this movie everyone is covered with volcanic ash. A policeman is carrying around a little boy as they search for the little fellow’s mother. The policeman asks him what she looks like, and he says, “Look at their faces—they all look the same.” The camera pans the crowd, showing people of various races covered with volcanic ash. Everyone was the same color. Jesus commands us to “go and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19). All colors. They all look the same to Jesus.
