Always a good thing, I find, when in preparing my sermon, or the more so, when delivering it, I am preaching to myself.   So this morning, as I reached my final reflection, on Galatians 3: 28 - 29, our 16th reading of the day!!!

What, I said, if we move beyond the implied dualism of the age in which it was written and try to find a principle for out own time?  What if we said...

In Christ race vanishes

In Christ status vanishes

In Christ gender vanishes

Just a thought.
