@amerika I would argue it's intentions, going back to Scripture.
Like let's look at the #OldTestament because of how being a #Christian just meant being a member of the Jewish theocracy. #Abraham had faith in God, and that was accounted to him as righteousness. #Rahab was "grafted in" despite having been from an entirely different culture, because she snuck the spies from #Israel into her house and trusted in God from what she had heard of Him.
