It may seem irreverent to compare Jesus to a chicken. But Jesus does in fact describe himself this way. He says he is like a mother hen longing to gather her chicks under her wings. Jesus has so much compassion on his people that he will be stopped by nothing in his mission save his people. Nothing will stop him from advancing the Kingdom of God.
There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus (Galatians 3:28). Which communion, as God offereth opportunity, is to be extended unto all those who, in every place, call upon the name of the Lord Jesus (Westminster Confession of Faith, Chapter 26, Section.2). Ethnic diversity. Racial reconciliation. Social injustice. Gender equity. Rights for the disabled. It may sound like the political agenda of the left, but these phrases describe important themes from the Bible. The New Testament places race, class, and gender in the context of the good news about Jesus Christ.
