People need not just to accept but also to grow in relationship with God. God's grace and love constantly prompts and seeks to transform people, and so they should continually seek and pray to grow in holiness and love.
Christians should be dedicated to the holy responsibility and privilege of loving people of all races and ethnicities in religious communities.
