And since I’m living in Detroit and much more aware of this issue…why is Africa NOT listed as a continent? It is listed separately, but so is the middle east. Yet, the middle east IS listed as a continent.

If only I had a tape recorder each time I heard a racist remark from Korean missionaries over the years. One missionary freely and repeatedly used the N word to describe an African mission report. When we told him it was wrong to use that word in a public meeting (or anywhere else for that matter) he spent several minutes explaining the meaning of that word…

The interesting thing to me in the UBF 1 Timothy diagram is that they have people going out the windows of the house, only to fall into the flames or onto a bomb. This is an underlying issue with UBF that does still exist: teaching that anyone outside UBF is just flaming the fire of meaningless chatter or the poison of bitter roots.
