[quote author=Dtruthspeaker post=90120732] Your NIV, CSB, NLT, ESV are Deceiving you in saying "slaves" (Evil) not "Servants" (Regular and Ordinary Free Persons whom you see everyday) which is what KJV says. Curiously no KJV. Slavery means Complete Ownership and Possession of Fellow Souls like you. And it is against the Most High Law that One Soul can Not and Should Not Posses the Soul of Another, as if he were a laptop or car. Both the Wicked Soul Possessing and the Soul being Possessed are the Property of the Most High. Eg Toyota Sequoia can not Possess and shall Never be able to Possess Toyota Yaris, not to talk of Kia Picanto. That is the Law and all who are in breach of it SHALL ANSWER TO THEIR 1 Like |

bright007:You actually are reacting with a shallow objection bright007:Brilliant historians will let you know that the introduction of the Trans Atlantic Slave to America was incidental. Slavery, as a matter of fact was accidentally introduced into the US. The first 20 odd slaves arrived in Virginia there, in late August 1619, after two British pirates, the Treasurer and the White Lion, intercepted the ship transporting them to Vera Cruz, on the coast of Mexico by Portuguese slave traders. They climbed on board hoping to find bounty of gold, but what they met were slaves. These the pirates seized and sold them off as booty of war and/or traded them off for victuals (i.e. food and drinks) from the Governor and Cape Merchant of Jamestown, who bought them to work on the tobacco fields. Many plantation owners were able to increase their fortunes by selling tobacco to the world, European, Africans and all. Those accidental first 20 odd slaves that arrived at Jamestown became an eye-opener to a solution to the decreasing supply of cheap tobacco labor and dwindling influx of indentured servants willing to migrate from England to work in the tobacco fields in America. The eye-opener was to exploit the already fledging Trans Atlantic Slave trade and join the Belgian, Portuguese et cetera big boys in the game to boost the tobacco economy with buying and acquiring slave labour to plant, cultivate, harvest, cure and package tobacco in its extremely labor intensive process bright007:"Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”" - Genesis 1:28 Slavery and/or subjugation was never part of God's original from the beginning plan. As evidently seen in Genesis 1:28 above, God blessed man to have dominion over the fish, birds and over every living thing that moves on the earth, but not over each other or a fellow human being bright007:""If any Israelites, male or female, sell themselves to you as slaves, you are to release them after they have served you for six years. When the seventh year comes, you must let them go free." - Deuteronomy 15:12 "“If one of your fellow Israelites falls into poverty and is forced to sell himself to you, do not treat him as a slave." - Leviticus 25:39 "Masters, be fair and just in the way you treat your slaves. Remember that you too have a Master in heaven." - Colossians 4:1 The circumstance of human being becoming a slave (e.g. prisoner of war, abduction, poverty et cetera) more than not, prolly is as a result of coming out something he/she couldn't control, and so hopefully such in that position, would wish they're serving God fearing masters bright007:Slavery is a reality of life. Nothing to put a solid defence about, except for say, it happens because we live in an imperfect and fallen world Daejoyoung:Slavery, just as like prostitution, is as ancient as time. Slavery is a symptom of an underlying problem. Sort out the underlying problem will take care of the slavery issue and that is what Jesus came to do and die for. Jesus Christ, did not politicise, so you'll hear him say something like: "Give unto Caesar what is Caesar and to God the things that are God's" (i.e. Matthew 22:21) The Romans dominated the Israelites, the Kingdom of Judah, Judah, yet He will decried them nor praise them. It is the same with slavery, He obviously knows slavery is about and thriving so, but then His saying of "... Love your neighbor as yourself. ..." (i.e. Mark 12:31) is an indication of, if you happen to be into slavery, realise that you are not allowed to mistreat slaves bright007:Pure, true and religion that has no fault, something that Did won't be able to find fault(s) with is about empathy, compassion and humaneness If humans are really being religious, in the purest and truest sense of the original meaning of the world, there wouldn't be slavery. Fyi, God created human beings to be and become like Him in character, attributes, behaviour et cetera Daejoyoung:Movie buffs, would have one time or the other watched Spartacus. He showed the Romans pepper, but the Romans in the end had the upper hand and squashed the slave revolt. bright007:[img]https://s3/images/ObamaMuttley.gif[/img] What if God ever condemned slavery in the bible? Do you then think God condemning slavery in the bible would have put an end to slavery ni, hmm? Even if God do ever condemn slavery in the bible, He is not going to force any from not participating in it bright007:Oh o. You want God to install love into every human being so that they robotically love each other and have no feeling in them to want to take a fellow human being as slaves. If you were to be God on that very day of creation. How would you have created man. How would you proof to me that your created man would be better than what man currently is and is going through, hmmm, lmao? bright007:All you've so far portrayed, is saying you can and could have done a better work about creation of human beings than God has. Admit this is correct. There are quite a varied of things God didn't tell people not to do. When I give my kids their own personal rooms in my house, I didn't unnecessarily tell them to lay or not lay their beds. Why not?. It is because it is their rooms, and as they lay their beds, so they'll lie in it. bright007:It is you, who is forming hollier than thou upandan the thread with your sanctimonious self. You are trying to get me open up a can of worms here. OK, no problem lmao. My dear friend, what you don't know just like in America, in Britain, when slavery was abolished, slave owners were compensated monetarily for releasing the slave (i.e. Compensated emancipation) Nathan Mayer Rothschild and his brother-in-law Moses Montefiore loaned the British government, the equivalent of £17bn in today's money for doing this, but do you know that, the money borrowed wasn’t paid off until just recently 5 years ago, in 2015, lmao, meaning that living British citizens just finished paying off to ending the slave trade. The Roman who were in power during the time when God as Jesus was on earth should have had the political will to have done similar, after it was man who was given dominion to rule the earth, it is not God. God had created earth, put man on it, and let it in man's hands to be in charge, lmao. bright007:So what, if he does? Havent you heard that, every myth has a modicum of truth in them ni, hmm? Besides, when the truth, seemingly is bitter to hear and often difficult to bear, then employing myth, lol, makes the medicine go down easier, lol Dtruthspeaker:Don't mind her Dtruthspeaker:[img]https://s7/images/RubHandsWaiting.gif[/img] I would like her to bring it on too, so she could be had for breakfast/lunch/dinner, lmao 2 Likes 1 Share |

donjazet: wow....I'm just stumbling on ds now since 2017...I never knew u were such a talented writer... I wish I had depth like u... anyways to give my little answer to ur questions,,, d reason Africans are more obsessed with d Gospel more than d whites is d same reason Israel rejected Jesus as their Messiah.... d idea of God is so dat d Gospel can keep spreading....d Gospel is not an inheritance to be hoarded but to be spread,,,in the fullness of time,, d Gospel will go back to d origin,, it will be accepted by d Jews and all d western countries dat are avoiding it now...it is d wisdom of God to keep it longer in Africa bkos we don't have where to pass it to...also in Genesis 1:26 God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth dat was d original idea of God for man,,to develop d earth and not just religion....there are alot of other complexities on why God created man...I cant explain dat here,,i will drop a video link where u can get clearer understanding,,,but in a broader sense God actually wanted to create more Gods like himself to rule over d multiverses and universe as it were,,and daz not possible unless they are subjected through pain(evil)... for God to create other God's pain must be introduced into d system,, those that can overcome dat pain bcome Gods...now d challenge was for how will pain be introduced into d system,,pain in ds sense will represent evil,, but God can't afflict men with pain(evil),, den Lucifer shows up and sins against God,,wen Lucifer sin he became d medium by which men can receive pain to prepare dem to be God's.... I won't say more than I have said...I will kindly urge u to watch d video below,,, I'm not doing an advertisement,,I've seen a lot of ignorant folks rant online and I pass by dem,,but I will like u to be more enlightened,,, I'm only trying to get people who are interested in knowledge to learn... its a 2hr video,, I will advise u start from 1hr 27min of d video where he talked about d mystery of God's will,,wch is in allowing evil and not resisting evil... I will stop here,, if u have any questions,, I'm all ears https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwwivjlI-lo |

donjazet: Real intellectuals don't speak about race rather they are open minded. Your write-up is flawed due to your conclusion about Africans. The problem is not about any book or slavery, it's a global phenomenon but Africans are most affected because our leaders were chosen by those who wants to exploit our land. |
