Wicked Sayings: Ignorance is Bliss

James 3:8 “But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.” One of the most harmful sayings that is widely believed is that ignorance is bliss.

Bethink Themselves

Tomorrow night (3/14/2022) is an example of why we should continually seek our history, beyond the month of February.

Bethink Themselves Flyer

There are many things that are tied to our identity, such as repentance and our salvation. Colossians 1:26 “Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:” Who we are is truly a mystery to the masses, because it was purposely hidden and prevented from being forwarded to future …

MLK: The Dreamer

Martin Luther King Jr. is regarded as the quintessential leader of civil rights for so called Blacks. His legacy is used in American propaganda although the FBI considered him a radical. There are many things we could learn about his life but we must consider his influence on our people through a Biblical perspective. As a minister or reverend, was …

In the Beginning …

Years ago, (in this post) we discussed how Black History Month has become a propaganda tool for governments and corporations to keep our people in ignorance. The above quote from Dr. Carter G. Woodson is so true; when a race has no history the life of such is little regarded. Zechariah 11:5 “Whose possessors slay them, and hold themselves not …

Sabbath Your Minds: Fasting in Babylon

It is a great thing to know your history because in the past it was prophecies. Now we could appreciate the fact that it was fulfilled. In ancient Babylon our forefathers learned their lesson quick and decided to turn back to the heavenly Father.

Why our people Hate their History?

When the Bible is mentioned the first thing you think is; a religious book. However it is more than that, for the past few days we have shared lessons that demonstrate Deuteronomy 28 is our history. For the 4th Day of Deuteronomy 28 we have to ask ourselves, why any other time our people are not interested in their history? …

Learn Your History

When tragic deaths of oppression happen, those affected seek for answers. Isaiah 60:2 “For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.” Unfortunately there is gross darkness upon our people therefore they do not receive answers. Moreover their actions remain the same receiving the same results. No judgment and no justice.
See, Isaiah 59:6-10 and Isaiah 50:2.

plantation-police-296x300The pictured Police badge (above) shows the origins of this profession. It’s main purpose was to enforce the laws of slavery. The majority of our people are unaware of this fact therefore they are surprised by the brutality shown today by Police. A depiction of slavery in films show this fact; like the video below from the TV show “Underground”. But if we listen to some entertainers like Snoop Dogg or Nick Cannon some of our people that do not pick up books will never learn this.

 

Proverbs 19:2 “Also, that the soul be without knowledge, it is not good…” Hence when entertainers who are not properly educated teach our people to be ignorant about their history and their solution is to stand next to those that oppress them or march. They are leading you to that which is not good. It is fact that a person that is ignorant of their history will commit the same mistakes as their ancestors. Pick up the Bible and you will see that this has happened to us as a people! In other cultures instead of omitting the degrading atrocities suffered, they use them to educate themselves and others. This could be very empowering because it will give direction and hope as the podcast lesson explains. Once we learn that this is nothing new; Ecclesiastes 3:15 “That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.” Then we will be able to speak clearly of the time periods that we reigned as Kings and Queens and aspire to return there. Shalam!
