1 | where do blacks come from? | Bible general Archive 1 | nbservices@emaxxis.com | 3368 | ||
"For the sake of keeping the family happy, two people of different races should refrain from marriage, though it is not a sin." Why would you not marry just to keep the family happy ?!?! Would you not accept Christ because your family is atheist or jewish or buddhist ? The same logic applies. "Interracial marriage" is not a sin but racism and prejudice is. So what if the family is unhappy that is their problem. When two become one, your relatives take a back seat to your new family. Maybe you meant in the US it is easier if 2 of the same color/"race" marry, because of the racist climate. | ||||||
2 | Why not Jesus' words in Red? | Bible general Archive 1 | nbservices@emaxxis.com | 3003 | ||
This is one explanation that I heard. By offsetting Jesus's words in red, it seems like the words of other people or even the rest of the Bible is unimportant. I understand their rational, because the words of Peter, Solomon, Jacob, and Pontius Pilate are just as important as the words of Jesus. Without them, we wouldn't have the complete revelation of God's Word. What is said by an unbeliever in the Bible is just as important as what is said by a believer. | ||||||
3 | What unmarried sexual acts are sinful? | Bible general Archive 1 | nbservices@emaxxis.com | 2522 | ||
The latter of half of Romans 1 would be good scriptural reference. Here's some food from thought that I learned from my Assistant Pastor in my church's premarital class. The problem is everybody is either trying to FIND OUT WHAT THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH, or they don't care. We were instructed if you wouldn't do it with your Grandma or Grandpa or your daughter or son, then don't do it. Here's the explanation: you can kiss somebody and YOU CAN KISS SOMEBODY !! What is your intent or what feeling are you trying to get from the act(passion)? Would you kiss your grandma/pa the same as your potential mate ?!?! You can kiss your potential mate the same as you would your grandparents without being repulsed. | ||||||
4 | where do blacks come from? | Bible general Archive 1 | nbservices@emaxxis.com | 2998 | ||
I would like to be clear that in NO way do I think one color of people is better than another, that's why I ended my previous post with Galatians 3. What I do feel is of importance when witnessing, is that my Black brothers and sisters need to know that they are not an afterthought in the mind of God! Satan has used racism, especially in America, to portray Christianity as a white man's religion. I've had many people tell me that. So many of our brothers and sisters have been tricked into other religions, especially the Nation of Islam, with this lie. Also, we see pictures based on scenes in the Bible, that are based on the drawings of Michealangelo. Which, there is nothing wrong, because that is one man's rendering and I wouldn't expect anything else. If I was a artist I might be tempted to draw everybody Black, because that's what I am. Therefore, I can see why Michealangelo drew everybody as Italians. Yet, our young brothers and sisters, especially in the inner city, see these faces and don't see themselves as part of God's plan. They see movies and tv shows based horribly on the Bible and see no actors of color, and if there are they are the Egyptian slaves. So they flock to false teachers, with black militant or feel good positive thinking messages. Yes race is not important, that's why God didn't discuss it. It's not essential to salvation. In fact the classification of seperating people, by color(race) is less than a 1000 yrs old. But to ignore, trivialize, or spiritualize the answer, when dealing with an unbeliever is a missed opportunity. | ||||||

Just ran across this site and had to give a response. Sorry, I'm in a hurry and don't have all the specific, biblical references handy, but will, in another post, if necessary. I believe a better question might be "Where do those that are not Black come from ?" Unbiased secular science has already backed up what we all know, that all human life came from "A Woman". It is a scientific fact that a gene called "melanon" sp?, is responsible for the color of a persons skin. The more melanon you have, the darker you are. Albinoes are the result of a severe to total lack of this gene. It is also a fact that 2 parents with little melanon, CANNOT have a child that has more melanon !! Unless, there is a recessive gene- a gene that skips a generation or 2. In this case the only way that 2 parents could have a darker child is if a grandparent or great grandparent was of a darker color than the parents. Although, 2 parents with "lots" of melanon can have children of varying shades, even albinoes. BTW, there are blacks that are classified as albinoes. Simply put, Adam and Eve couldn't of been "white", based on proven science and the Bible. Racism has stated that blacks came from the curse of Noah on Ham, but if you read the actual text in context, the curse has nothing to do with skin color, since Noah had to be a person of color. Gen 9:25 "Cursed be Canaan; A servant of servants He shall be to his brethren." If you read through verse 27 you will see that Ham's son Canaan and Canaan's offspring, those nations would be servants to the nations that would come from the brothers of Ham. "For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus." |
