Why is Christianity not a “white man’s religion?” Provide a Scripture passage to support your answer.

Christianity is not a white man’s religion because in Genesis 1:27 we are told, “So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.” Inside, we all bear the image of God, and it does not matter what we look like on the outside. Jesus was a Jew, and many people would not call Him a white man. Also, Christianity isn’t just a religion for men. God created men and women. In Genesis 1: 28 we read, “God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it.””

When you look at Peter’s interaction with the Roman centurion in Acts 10 & 11, you have a clear demonstration of how Christianity is not just for one set of people. It is a big hinge point in the New Testament that shows how Christianity is not just for the Jewish people, it is for everyone. In fact, it is so important, that the information is repeated three times over the course of around 60 verses.
