WHAT IS THE COLOR OF GOD?

The sky has beautiful colors above us, yet no one knows the color of God

"Do not stare at me because I am dark, because I am darkened by the sun. My mother's sons were angry with me and made me take care of the vineyards; my own vineyard I had to neglect." 

This Biblical quotation can be traced at Song of Solomon 1:6.

Even though the Bible is said to be inspired by men of God, it is likely that before the white missionaries reached on the continent of Africa, most of the contents in the Holy Book have been changed to favor a particular race just to dominate another race.

Because there are some verses in the Bible that put readers into very deep thinking, wondering how could this appear in the Holy Book. 

According to the Bible in Genesis 1:27, "So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them."

While the same Bible tells us at Ephesians 6:5, "Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ."

So if God created man in his own image, then who are the earthly masters and who are the slaves? There should be neither earthly masters nor slaves, even though all of us can't be equal because of different professions and academic backgrounds.

I can work for you and being paid for the services I am rendering to you. That doesn't make me a slave. Thus, creating barriers and denying the rights and freedom of people to be slaves, were evil plans of man. This doesn't come from God.

Many have reasons to believe that the Bible was tampered with, the fact that when Jesus came on earth to fulfill the mission His father gave him, there wasn't any camera. Jesus came decades before the birth of modern technology.

Isaiah described Jesus as "For he grew up before him like a young plant, and like a root out of the dry ground; he had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him."

And also Daniel the prophet, described Jesus by saying "I lifted up my eyes and looked, and behold, a man clothed in linen, with a belt of fine gold from Uphaz around his waist. His body was like beryl, his face like the appearance of lightning, his eyes like flaming torches, his arms and legs like the gleam of burnished bronze, and the sound of his words like the sound of a multitude."

So who among the men inspired by God, his disciples, or his followers had a camera to take a photograph of Jesus for us to see him today in the Holy Bible of a man with long hair and blue eyes? 

Fortunately or unfortunately, the invincible photographer took the picture of the devil, and the color was black. 

These are some of the reasons many have lost faith in Christianity today because there are certain things in the Bible that aren't accurate. They were changed by deceitful people to dominate another race, unfortunately, that race is the black people today.

The reason Africa alone is the continent among the seven continents that has suffered all kinds of cruelties, including slavery, colonial brutality, Apartheid, and biological weapons of HIV-Aids, Ebola, and other man-made diseases.

Nobody can ever claim of seeing the face of God, even the great prophets and those that had communication with the Almighty, including Moses, couldn't stare into the eyes of God because the holy book has made clear to us at John 4:24, "God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth."

Why does the world suffer violence today over racial problems because of your ignorance, pride, greed, and lack of understanding? Why should people become subjects of oppression and domination because of the color of his or her skin?

After death, according to Ecclesiastes 12:7, "the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit or the soul returns to God who gave it." 

Therefore, those white people killing blacks because of racial prejudice, are just wasting their time. Firstly, no one lives forever, and secondly, killing a black man is not a full task of eliminating him from the surface of this earth.

If they don't want to see the face of the black man again, then both his body and the spirit must be destroyed completely. The latter is what they can't destroy because the spirit belongs to God. That means white killers, you have been defeated by the black man.

The Fear Of Death Hunting Homosexuals In Africa

Homosexuality is not part of the African culture, but they are now listening to the external voice: First traditional Gay marriage in South Africa.

Homosexuality, men having sexual intercourse, is an abominable act in many parts of Africa. Africa, a continent of different tribes and clans, doesn’t approve of many things that they consider taboo.


Thus, someone caught in a homosexual act instantly faces severe punishment, beatings, and lynchings, many times leading to death.

                             

Since homosexuality is a crime in African countries that don’t permit it, those involved in such acts hide it from the sight of the public, but the homosexual movements in Europe and America today, fighting for recognition, have inspired or encouraged African homosexuals to make their voice heard.

                           

Thus, the social vice which is less popular in Africa is now becoming famous in many African countries, turning the countries into an unnerving place to live in, because church leaders and many organizations against this practice, wouldn’t like to embrace this type of culture, they call it ‘Evil’, to add to their own culture.

                         

At times, I do ask myself time and time again, do Europeans or Americans think Africa will readily accept whatever they are interested in? Africa had nothing to do with Christianity before the white missionaries ever went there. 

They thought Africans to follow the Bible or the gospel. Well, later the truth was discovered. The reason wasn’t to let Africans know about Christianity but to loot.

                       

Fortunately, many parts of Africa derived interest in the Bible and studied it thoroughly, therefore living by its teachings. An African Christian, explaining his point to defend his hate against homosexuality, would take one deep step into the Bible. 

Two of such scriptures confirming that homosexuality is an evil act can be read in 1st Timothy, Chapter 10, and 1st Corinthians, Chapter 6, verse 9.

                     

The question is: Why are Europeans and other Gay Rights Organizations now fighting for the practice of homosexuality to be recognized in Africa, when they had already been there with the Holy Bible, a book telling Africans how evil the practice of homosexuality is?” 

The teachings of the Holy Bible can’t be reversed, so I am afraid to say that Africa can never change its mind or opinion on the negative aspects of homosexuality.

                       

Africa is already overwhelmed by many diseases, such as AIDS, Ebola, malaria, and others. It, therefore, makes sense when they don’t want that practice. 

Europeans, Advanced Countries, and some Civil rights organizations are the first people whose voices are heard whenever there is a bad situation in Africa, but whenever there is an epidemic, the response to contain the situation never comes or is very slow.

                     

Aids has taken thousands of Africans to their untimely grave since the early eighties, but some rich people who were affected during that period in America are still living. 

Many believe that after Africa’s survival of Aids, Ebola, and other deadly diseases, America and Europe are destined to ruin the continent with homosexuality, just to continue to kill Africans, when any epidemic erupts.

                     

Africa has learned a lot from their misfortunes, which is the reason it is fighting against homosexuality today. Unfortunately, the path Uganda has taken to deal with this issue is totally out of course. The proposal for the death penalty for homosexuals is sheer madness. Violence against homosexuals is not an option or a solution.

                   

According to many homosexuals, they were born with it. Who feels it, knows it. Do men bear to love men? That’s really a hard concept to accept. 

The more I think about this issue, the more I get confused. African leaders must find a way to deal with the rise of homosexuality in Africa because death is not an option to eradicate or stop homosexuality in Africa.
