Privileges give us advantage over others. Receiving special treatment can mean much especially when one is quite tired of harassed. But it can also be quite dangerous. There lurks in being privileged the danger of undue sense of entitlement. the end result of this undue sense of entitlement is the withdrawal of the privilege. Such is the lesson of the readings in the Bible period Israel's pride results in the privilege being transferred to others more worthy period this is the meaning of the parable of the two sons of the Gospel. In Zephaniah 3:1-2, 9-13, it prophesizes the blessing of the pagans, non-Israwlites. And that prophecy includes us!
With privilege comes responsibility. John the Baptist prophesized right, that when the Lord would come the wicked-those who refuse to repent-shall get their Just desserts. Those who repent are those whom Jesus earlier referred to as the "least in the Kingdom of God"
