Since I have used this Bible passage as an example of how the Lord God has positively influenced my overeating, this doesn't necessarily reflect the whole meaning of the verse. Debbie

Excluding Others From Joy

Romans 10: 12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Sometimes, I'm saddened when I hear how others are very judgmental. There was a time I would eat over things like this. I would get so frustrated that some feel that they are superior to people who have less money, not as nice clothes, don't have the same ethnicity, don't have the newest smart phone, as many likes, not as nice jobs...and the list can go on indefinitely!

The BIG thing is, what does Christ say about this. Jesus doesn't look at us by our ethnicity, family background, clothing, cars, phones, likes, etc. He doesn't call those people rich who have lots of money in the banks or have impressive jobs, etc.

We are told through this Bible verse that Jesus considers all rich in what really matters regardless of those of any ethnicity, income, etc. who call upon the Lord and they shall be saved! He doesn't want us excluding others from the joy of Salvation with Him.

 Since I am applying these Bible Verses to my life, it may not convey the whole meaning of the verses. Debbie
