Greetings my
dearly Beloved Brethren,
It is for
certain that if we believe in the Bible and love God we should be able to see
great Revelations. Therefore beloved, if Jesus Christ the Savior of humankind
as willed by the Father wanted us to embrace
a certain race pride where is it in the Word? THE SEED OF ABRAHAM EXTENDS TO
ALL OF HUMANKIND THAT ACCEPTS JESUS CHRIST.
We confess that we will put nothing before
God. "Is that right?" Then why do we come proclaiming the Black
Messiah. He is the Messiah of all humankind that embrace Him thus let the
record speak for itself. Is there any
sympathy for your White brothers? The record of humankind shows that White
Supremacy has had a ringing affect among most White people. Thus most if not
all of these people that profess to be Christians are stunned with the message
of a Black Messiah.
The White
Messiah has caused many Blacks to lose touch with reality. Is this also true
with the notation of a Black Messiah among the White community?
On a further
note Black people are not the only people rejected. The Word teaches that the
greatest rejection is among the Truth-Seekers. They maybe any hue, color, race
are ethnic line.
LET IT BE
WRITTEN THE FREEDOMJOURNAL IS NOT SOLELY REJECTED BECAUSE WE ARE BLACK. WE ARE
REJECTED BECAUSE WE STAND ON TRUTH. AND WE MAKE CLEAR THAT THE TRUTH WE SPEAK
OF COMES FROM GOD.
Peace and Love,
Carl Patton
writing for the FreedomJournal September 29, 2002 in the year of our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ.
RACE AND GOD (BLACK NOR WHITE)
PART 7: THE BIBLE AND THE DESCRIPTION OF JESUS
In the name of Jehovah God, Master of the universe,
Ruler of the earth.
As the seeds of
rebellion to God were sown there came about a backlash that has a fury that is
parallel to the original seeds of rebellion and disobedience. Here we see a
primary word used in the previous statement in rebellion.
"What do
you mean by rebellion FreedomJournal?"
"Well Truth
you failed to mention that the use of rebellion involves additional words to
form the phrase, "rebellion to God." There is a rebellion to God when
you distort and use scripture to allegedly justify exploitation of other human
beings. For example Preachers that use aspects of the Old Law and make changes
to suit the Old, New and contemporary lust for money through Tithing rebel
against God. Also the captains of the slave ships and the plantation masters
that used the Bible to justify slavery rebelled against God."
For the record
and for the wise. The FreedomJournal has placed some thought into the theories
regarding the merger of the right and the left. Moving from right to left and
left to right opposing views at some point often merge and form parallel
positions. Thus, we find certain agreement but for different reasons. Ingrained
in the previous brief depiction of the merger of radical left with conservative
right we see the merging of White and Black Supremacy around the issues of
White Jesus and Black Jesus.
However, please
allow us to delve into this question at the crux. Since those that ascribe to a
Black Jesus use the Bible to justify their conclusions what does the Bible
reveal about this question?
"Pardon the
intrusion FreedomJournal but we beg you to take your time and explain what is found
in the scriptures as clearly as possible."
In the first
chapter of the last Book of the Bible we find several scriptures that implore
some of our brethren to cry out for a Black Jesus. However we note that a clear
understanding of the purpose of the Book of Revelation should shed considerable
light on our understanding of the questions before us.
The verses most
often noted to identify Jesus as Black are as follows:
Rev. 1: 14.
"His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his
eyes were as a flame of fire;"
1:15. And his
feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the
sound of many waters."
Before we note
further meaning to these two verses, we will mention several verses prior to
the 14th and 15th verses.
"Wait one
minute my brother. Would you please tell us something about the symbols and
things in the Book of Revelation that often confuse many people?"
Truth we are
grateful for your question. It is for sure that many people are confused about
Revelation and have a limited understanding of the purpose of the Book. God
directed John to write a Book (Revelation) with symbols that would rest in
harmony with the facts of religion, history, politics etc. The symbols reveal
facts regarding authentic history. Revelation is filled with predictions and
prophecy noted in symbols. For the
record the symbolic part of the Book of Revelation is included in chapters 4
through 20. The first 3 chapters and the 2 remaining chapters at the close of
the Book are similar to the rest of the New Testament Books. Now to get a firm
and basic understanding of our primary scriptures, we will begin with verse 1.
Rev. 1:1. The
Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants
things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his
angel unto his servant John:
The Revelation
is from Jesus Christ who was sent by God the Father. The Revelation would come
to pass and also be in the future. John was one of the 12 Apostles the Revelation
was sent to him and the bearer was an angel sent by the Lord. Please make note
of the existence of an angel bearing the Revelation as we move to our verses
that some think describe the Son of God Jesus Christ.
Rev. 1:2.
"Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ,
and of all things that he saw."
Who is a pronoun
that is concerning John the writer of this Book? John (bare record) reveals
that he is making a record of what he saw. What he saw was according to the testimony
of Jesus Christ. What Christ revealed
through an angel is the Word of God and the Father gave Christ this
authority. Remember brethren an angel is
rendering the message to John. Christ has made the ascension to be with the
Father in heaven during this time of the Christian Dispensation.
Rev. 1:3.
"Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this
prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at
hand."
One is blessed
by reading the Book of Revelation. However there are three significant terms
that the reader is advised to embrace in reading this Book. Reading the
prophecy renders a blessing and happiness. Also, one must hear the words and
give heed to their meaning. The reader must also keep it and observe the
Revelation. The time is at hand as the historical record unfolds.
