The wisdom that is from above is . . . full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. — James 3:17

 Prejudice towards some races can develop early in human life. Until they hear or observe adults making inaccurate claims about people of other races, children are colorblind. Prejudices quickly grow themselves as weeds with extensive root systems. It's difficult to get rid of them. 

Discrimination in employment and housing can be reduced with the help of laws. But no law can make people's hearts free of prejudice. A thorough examination of what Jesus' death on the cross accomplished is the only definite way to end it. We can obtain wisdom from there that is "full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy" (Jas. 3:17). 

Why is the ground there so level? The heinousness of our crimes, the heinous price that Jesus suffered to atone for them, and His love for us

Why is the ground there so level? Our sins are terrible, and Jesus paid a terrible price to atone for them. He also loves everyone. Prejudice cannot grow on soil that came from that place. 

At the base of the cross, we can all fall to our knees. 

Look up to the cross to avoid looking down on other people. Lord, please pardon me for my prejudice. Please take away its subtle lie. Please remind me that You sent Your Son to die for everyone.
