Many historians and artist have falsely depicted the ethnic appearance of Christ. This seems like a very simple subject to disprove with the scriptures; however our people’s minds are clouded with lies, and the false image of Christ is etched / engraved in their minds that they are completely blinded to the truth written in the Holy Bible. They will read in the Bible of the description of Christ and will reject what is written.

They continue to worship and accepted the false image of Christ and be taught LIES, read John 4:23-24.


THE BIBLICAL IMAGE OF CHRIST


Proverbs 14:5: “A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will utter lies.”
The faithful witnesses were the disciples, who gave a true description of Christ. But rather than accept what is written in the scriptures, many now argue that no one ever saw Christ, however the Bible says…

1 Corinthians 15:5: “And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:”
1 Corinthians 15:6: “After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.”
1 Corinthians 15:7: “After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.”
1 Corinthians 15:8: “And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.”

Therefore, with all those witnesses that saw Christ after He resurrected, they testified that He had a fleshly body with an ethnic appearance. One of those faithful witnesses was the Apostle John who was instructed to write what he saw in a book, read Revelation 1:11.

Revelation 1:13: “And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.”
Revelation 1:14: “His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;”
Revelation 1:15: “And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.”

Upon seeing Christ; John describes the hair on his head and face being white like wool. He then describes Christ’s eyes (the white part) as being red according to the prophecy. Genesis 49:12: “His eyes shall be red with wine, and his teeth white with milk.” Then John describes the color of Christ’s feet is like brass (golden brown), as if they were burned in a furnace (meaning very dark) and his voice was loud like the roaring waters.

Skeptics try to argue that COLOR is not in the Bible or historically and biblically it does not matter when it relates to Christ’s ethnic appearance, however the prophet Daniel saw a vision of the Israelites’ Messiah; Jesus.

Daniel 10:5: “Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz:”
Daniel 10:6: “His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.”

Please notice that Daniel has the same exact description of Christ as the Apostle John and stresses the color of his arms and feet!

Paul warned the Church of Corinth not to be tricked and their minds corrupted with LIES, from the simplicity in Christ – because His word is easy to understand. He continues to explain that if anyone comes preaching “another Jesus” or “another spirit” or “another gospel” which has never been taught by any of God’s servants, they are to “bear with them” by correcting them in the scriptures.

2 Corinthians 11:3: “But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.”

Let’s examine that verse historically. How did Satan/the serpent trick Eve? He lied and twisted the Words of the Lord to get Eve to disobey God.
Genesis 3:2: “And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:” Genesis 3:3: ” But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, lest ye die.” Genesis 3:4: “And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die.” Genesis 3:5: “For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.”

So likewise today, that same deceitful spirit tricks many of us to reject God’s laws and testimonies. Saying “Ye shall not surely die. God is all love, don’t worry. Disobey it’s okay.”

2 Corinthians 11:4: “For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.”

1 John 4:1: ” Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.”
1 John 4:2: “Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:”
1 John 4:3: “ And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.”

Today, Blacks, Hispanics and Native Americans (the Israelites) have accepted another Jesus, who is Caucasian. To go along with this false image of Christ is a false doctrine, which contradicts the Old and New Testament “You don’t have to keep the commandments anymore; Just love your brother.”
These false teachings about this “other Jesus” have corrupted the minds of our people creating self-hate among them. Leviticus 19:11 commands us not to lie and Proverbs 12:17: “He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.” The truth about Christ, his appearance, his true doctrine, who he came to die for etc., has not been taught to the Blacks, Hispanics and Native Americans!

John 8:31: “Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;”
John 8:32: “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

The Israelites (Blacks, Hispanics and Native Americans and the rest scattered in the Earth) are still in bondage under the other nations, bound in sins, and will never be free until they begin to accept the simplicity in Christ Jesus.
John 14:15: “If ye love me, keep my commandments.” So knowing the ethnic origin of Christ is not enough to free us from broken families, drug addiction, Black on Black crimes, racial injustice, imprisonment, teenage pregnancy or AIDS but rather the keeping of the commandments as Israelites.

Blessings and Peace unto you. Shalom[/center]

ARE IMAGES WRONG?

Now that the Most High has revealed to us that Christ is a Blackman of the tribe of Judah there is a swarm of hatred coming from some of our Spanish speaking brothers who are waking up to the truth that they are Israelites but have a deep rooted hatred against the kingdom of Judah.

Isaiah 11:

v13- The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah……

Here is their stupid and unlearned grievance “Don’t show black people as the people of the Bible especially Christ the King.”

Why? “ummm ummm because the Bible says NOoooooo images. So any image of Christ, the Angels, and the Israelites is a sin” LOL Notice in the world when they worshipped the devil image of the beast they were fine but now in the truth when they realize the true image of Christ they are envious. Question, do you have images on your money? Yes

Mark 12:

v16- And they brought it. And he saith unto them, whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar’s.

Do you have images in your bible dictionaries? Yes. Do you have Photographs? Yes. So, what’s the problem? Some of them hate black people. They attempt to twist and pervert Deuteronomy 4:15 but won’t read verse 19 that gives the explanation. Let’s take a walk thru the scriptures about images

NO WORSHIPPING IMAGES

Deuteronomy 4:

v15- Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no manner of similitude on the day that the LORD spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire:

v16- Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,

v17- The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air,

v18- The likeness of anything that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth:

v19- And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the LORD thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.

That’s the point, The Most High doesn’t want images to worship. Now many of our people are evil stubborn and filled with hate so let’s see if the Most High instructed our forefathers to create images for Israel.

Did the Most High Tell Moses To Have Images

Exodus 25:

v18- And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.[19] And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: even of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof. [20] And the cherubims shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their faces shall look one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubims.

HEY THE IMAGES OF ANGELS HAD FACES HMMMmmm!





Numbers 21:[9]

V9- And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived.

Golden Angels with wings and faces.
Brass serpent
Did the Most High Tell Solomon To Have Images

2 Chronicles 3:

v10- And in the most holy house he made two cherubims of image work and overlaid them with gold.



1 Kings 7:

v25- It stood upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east: and the sea was set above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward.

1 Kings 7:

v-29 And on the borders that were between the ledges were lions, oxen, and cherubims: and upon the ledges there was a base above: and beneath the lions and oxen were certain additions made of thin work.

V36- For on the plates of the ledges thereof, and on the borders thereof, he graved cherubims, lions, and palm trees, according to the proportion of everyone, and additions round about.



1 Kings 10:

19 The throne had six steps, and the top of the throne was round behind: and there were stays on either side on the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the stays.

V20- And twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other upon the six steps: there was not the like made in any kingdom (hey he made images of beasts too hhhmmm)

Two giant gold angels
12 Oxen
12 lions
Palm trees


So did the Most High forget his own laws of no graven images?

NO evil Edomites purposely mislead So-called Blacks and Hispanics with this forgetting the point is not to worship the images. Some foolish Israelites hold this doctrine of devils.

Hosea 3:

v4- For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an image, and without an ephod, and without teraphim:

When did we abide without an image? I thought these dumb people said we did not have images. We obviously had images and our images were taken from us. For example, in

1 Maccabees 3:

v48- And laid open the book of the law, wherein the heathen had sought to paint the likeness of their images.

Proving we even had images in our bibles, but the Greeks put their images there instead. Iconoclasm-destroying black art by whitewashing them.

Hosea 10:

v1- Israel is an empty vine, he bringeth forth fruit unto himself: according to the multitude of his fruit he hath increased the altars; according to the goodness of his land they have made goodly images.

V2- Their heart is divided; now shall they be found faulty: he shall break down their altars, he shall spoil their images.

Proving Israel always had images but when we sinned the Most High made us slaves to the nations and took away our images.

But we are returning now in righteousness now according to prophecy.

Hosea 3:

v5- Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king (Christ see Luke 1:32); and shall fear the LORD and his goodness in the latter days.
