In Romans 10:4, Paul highlights how through the beliefin Christ all are saved and cloaked under the righteousness of the Lord. “Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes”.God sent Jesus, His Son, so that salvation was made available to all nations and through our commitment to Christ we became brothers and sisters in the Lord despite our dif- ferences. In Romans 10:12- 13 Paul argues that al- though there may be earthly differences between believ- ers, the heavenly nature ofJesus does not see these differences but views be- lievers equally no matter what their background. “For there is no difference between Jew andGentile-the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved”. Recently I was reading „The Heavenly Man‟ the true story of Liu Zhenying or Brother Yun as he is known by his Christian friends, a Chi- nese Christian who was called to the Lord from a poor village in He- nan Province to preach the gospel despite the persecution he faced from the authorities. Not only did this testimony provide an in- sight into Christian life in a different coun- tries but it also emphasises the commonality in the blessing and power of Christ across the world. Although Brother Yun encountered a differ- ent experience in coming to Christ, all throughout the book rather than focusing on his sufferings for following Jesus, he spoke about the redeeming power and for- giving nature of Jesus Christ and how through the assis- tance of Christians both within and outside of China more souls are becoming members of God’s heavenly family. In encountering the testimo- nies of Christians around the world, we as a family in Christ can learn and be encouraged through observing the power of God and his miraculous works in bringing people such as Brother Yun to the saving arms of Jesus. “May God be gracious to us and bless us andmake his face shine upon us, that your ways be known on earth, your salvation among all na- tions” Psalm 67:1-3.
