1. God?
2. Jesus?
3. Angels?
4. Saints?

Do you tell your black children they look like angels? With white wings or black wings?

How many black people have led your church? I don't mean the building in your village. I mean the head of your church in the world.

How many black saints or angels do you know? Which founders of your church are black? Are any of the books or doctrines of your religion written by blacks?

Visit their houses & its a white picture of Jesus you see hanging on their walls. Likewisewhen they close their eyes & pray its a white image of their saviour. That they see

This is the type of thread from the religion section that should make the frontpage.Unfortunately,all i ever see are Mickey Mouse threads like "Is using MTN cheat browse a sin?" or "god footstep found in SA."It seems the moderators in this section possess the intellectual thinking abilities of mentally unstable three year olds.Absolute nonsense!!!"Give a Nigerian little power and he/she will turn into a little Adolf Hitler dictator."

It must be shame that is preventing black christians from commenting on this thread. But I wonder what they are ashamed of. Their race or that of their god?

It is the shame that they see a white person when they imagine God and angels that is bothering them. That is why they cannot comment.

IMAGES I SEE ARE NOT RELEVANT. WHAT IMAGES ARE IN THE BIBLE ? SCRIPTURE DO SAY DO NOT LEAN INTO THY OWN UNDERSTANDING. WITH THAT BEING SAID THIS IS WHAT THE BIBLE SHOWS ME

GOD - BLACK MAN
JESUS - BLACK MAN
JEWS - BLACK MEN
ANGELS - BOTH BLACK AND WHITE. ANGEL ONLY MEANS MESSENGER SO THERE ARE WHITE ANGELS OF DEATH TOO. HOWEVER THE MAIN ANGELS AND SAINTS ( THE ELECT, 144,000 ) ARE BLACK

You know I have said it several times, if Jesus was to make the error and come back in black skin, wearing Agbada, Okpu Agu or any traditional attire, Nigerian christians will lynch him before his holy feet even touches the ground.

He must have blond hair, blue eyes, and must wear silk white attire.

WHAT IS THE BLACK AND WHITE THING ALL ABOUT. When it comes to Christianity, God does not have anything to do with color. Whwhatever your your colour is nothing before God. What God wants and His will is for all to draw to Him through His son Jesus and become saved.

What God are you talking about?
Yahweh did not want his people to marry outside. In fact he commanded them not to do that. As a matter of fact, some of his people left their wives and children.
Did Jesus come to teach something other that what Yahweh commanded?

Well firstly the God I know is Jesus nd nothing more. Jesus is my God. Jesus is not an image, status, or mary. He is God and we believe Him by faith. ncerning marriage, and what Jesus said about it is that it is between a man and a woman. And they have to stick together till death do them part.


Matthew 19:4-6, 9 KJV
And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, [5] And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? [6] Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. [9] And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

What is the colour of a soul? Something with no physical properties? What colour is the air? Can you tell if certain air has been breathed by a black person or white person?

Peoples souls were created in the beginning but made a little lower than the angels. Angels were made before people, before there was even an earth, before there was something called race. The question of God and colour in my mind is like asking do they take their coffee with or without milk in heaven. Coffee is an earthly thing, so are our bodies.

God specifically says that no image should be made of him.

God doesnt belong to a certain people, he chose to show/reveal himself to the Israelites.The Israelites belonged to God, as do the descendants of edom, canaan, ishmael etc.

God is not our friend and as such shows no favouritism based on race etc. He shows favour to those that obey his commands. Jews who didnt obey were punished but God heard the prayer of Cornelius a Gentile man because he was Holy before God.

Firstly there wasn't just a question, there were 10 in all.

My post addressed the first 4.

Secondly there is no way to answer your questions directly without looking ridiculous which is why I chose to render them moot.

How can anyone answer "How many black Saints or Angels do you know" when angels are neither black nor white. They are Angels.

You should have just said thank you for the enlightenment and modified your question appropriately in order to avoid looking the way you do now.

bro can you elaborate on this statement "ARABS ARE ISHMAELITES NOT ISRAELITES".

weren't the ishmaelites the "bad seeds"?

hey!

guys go to google and look up "black jesus".
it's interesting that even the black artists have made his image
which depicts someone from the Kush region.

jesus as a black man ( as seen on google)
