Mosaic Church Of Clayton

"God is going out of God’s way here to show the extent of who is invited. God could have sent anyone to the farthest reaches, God could have ignored the farthest reaches. God chooses a dark, black person who is not a man, but also not not a man, a person who had no power on their own, or even personhood, to be the one who has an encounter with Jesus and shares that with the Nubian people. God is going out of God’s way to make a point here, a point that God makes throughout the gospels, Acts and the letters of the New Testament, by furthering the kingdom through the foreigner, the one of the outside of the Jewish tradition, the women, the ones without power."
