SCRIPTURE

"where there cannot be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondman, freeman; but Christ is all, and in all." — Colossians 3:11 (ASV)

Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.

Whenever you hear certain very wise brothers say, "Such-and-such a promise in the Bible is for Israel, not for the Gentiles," do not be misled in the least by their assertion; but just quote this text to them: There is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all. These distinctions all vanish once we come to Christ; we are one in him, and every promise to believers is good to all who are in Christ Jesus, for Christ is all, and in all.
