Unfortunately, because of sin that is expressed in the form of racism, many truths about God's Forever-Living Word have either been withheld or undiscovered by all colors of people on earth and with particular lack in America.
I myself, can truely attest to the fact that as I moved through childhood in America, and participated in going to church, both predominantly white and black churches, that never was I educated on how Black people fill and are littered all throughout the pages of God's Word.
Now when I say God's Word, there is only one source on earth for God's Word, and that is; The Holy Bible. Some Occults, whose members are destined to believe a lie because of their own sin and pleasure in unrighteousness (muslims, nation of islam, jehovah's witnessess, krishnas, mormons, buddhists.. etc.) would have a person believe their text is the same as God's Word. Yet God said in 1 Corinthians 14: 33 : For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. When I go to an occult text like the q'uran and find that the god of the q'uran says things opposite The God of the Bible, then I know that the god of the q'uran is not the same god as the God of the Bible because the God of the Bible is not confused. Nor will he ever be. Glory to His name, Jesus Christ & The Holy Ghost.
Now that the foundation for this page has been revealed to you, let's take a look at some of my more favorite accounts in God's Word of Black people. I am not one to be hung up on the color of an individual of the human race, because God has no respect of persons and as a true Christian, neither do I. But when racist people rise up and attempt to distort God's Word, one must follow what God commanded in 1 Thessalonians 5: 21 - Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. The KKK claims that God is a God of and for white people only.... let's see if that is true.
The Hall of Blacks
1. Jethro - Moses' Father in Law /scripture: Exodus 18th chp., Numbers 12th chp.
But to make things worse for racists which claim to be Christians... God said in Exodus 18:12 - And Jethro, Moses' father in law, took a burnt offering and sacrifices for God: and Aaron came, and all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses' father in law before God.
Jethro blessed God and believed in God, therefore the Hebrews and Jethro were on one accord and they went together before God and God honored them. They weren't concerned that Jethro was Black.. Moses' had married his daughter and Moses was the man of God. In fact, the Hebrews accepted them as their own. The only people that have racist attitudes are sinners. The Bible says that the wages of sin is death. Unfortunately, there are alot of whites and others, who have died spiritually already.
Jethro was significant because God allowed Jethro to have the idea of the appointment of judges. A black man, is responsible for this idea as it pertains to the way that the Hebrews institutionalized this practice, from God, through Jethro.. a Black individual. I lie not, read the 18th chapter of Exodus in the King James Version and see it for yourself.. in print
2. Zipporah - Moses' wife - The Daughter of Jethro and an Ethiopian /scripture: Exodus 2:16-25, Numbers the 12th chapter
That goes for us today, yet extends all the way back to Adam. To believe and live by God's Word is to be obedient to God. Zipporah was the daughter of Jethro. You discover this by reading the Exodus the 2nd chapter. Numbers the 12th chapter let's us know that Moses' wife was an Ethiopian, but this chapter also shows us how God treats those who would speak against his people and how God considers racism just like any other sin... as sin.
God made Miriam, Moses' sister a leper and God's anger was ignited by her sinful words and actions. You don't have to take my word for it... simply take God's and read His Print.
3. Zephaniah - The Black Prophet of God - Author of the Book of Zephaniah /scripture: Zephaniah the 1st chapter
When you meet someone who doesn't follow these commandments of God, they are not a Christian... no matter what they say becaue the Bible says Let God be true and every man a liar. Meaning that the only thing that can be trusted and believed in is God Himself. How do you hear God? By his Word. Zephaniah prophesied concerning the matters to which God gave him utterance and Zephaniah states in the first verse of the first chapter that he is black. Black people must ask themselves this... Why is it that God would put these things in His Word? The Answer: God knows all things which will transpire throughout the course of time.
God's Word says that Jesus Christ the same yesterday today and forever, meaning that God doesn't change and knows everything for all time. Blacks have to know that God knew that we would encounter racism and experience trials and troubles at the hands of many people. He knew how whites would lie about being Christians in the 60's and yet do nothing to speak out about how God is no respecter of persons.. and to be one is to commit sin. God knew all of that. That is why God gives us those long genealogies in the Bible and speaks of Blacks and Ethiopians and cared enough about Blacks to have one write one of the Books of the Bible. All you have to do is meditate on His Word day and night like he commanded for you to do in Joshua the 1st chapter and you will begin to see these things and be able to tell the truth about God and His Word
