God is black?

There were two friends, one died then a few years later the other one
They met again in heaven and started talking
The second said "You know I've always wondered whether God is white or black"
Well said his friend, why don't you ask him - once a week you can go up to the throne and ask anything you want
So that's what he did. The day came and he walked up a flight of marble stairs towards the throne
He was blinded by the incredible light and couldn't see God's form
"Err.. God?" he asked
"YES....."
"I really want to know - are you white or black?"
"I AM WHAT I AM"
"So which one was that?"
"I AM WHAT I AM"
He went back to his friend and said "God's white"
After explaining what happened his friend say - What? He didn't say he was white what are you talking about?
Well, he explained - If he was black he'd have said "I IS WHAT I IS BABY!"

No offence intended :)

Catholics have asked, Do you think that the Catholic Church is mentioned in the Bible, and the answer is, "Definitely, Yes!", and as such, the Roman Catholic Church is identified in Daniel & Revelation.

Why Do Protestants Keep Sunday? - Roman Catholic (reprint, Challenge To Protestants)




The Catholic sect/denomination is not mentioned in the Bible.

Catholiscim has another written authority that they call Devine .Law of the fathers (CCC) It makes all things written in the law and the prophets without effect.

In that way no man can serve two teaching masters . In a attempt to usurp the authority of sola scriptura they list what they call Sacred Tradition first and then the word of God (sola scriptura)

" 80 # "Sacred Tradition and Sacred Scripture, then, are bound closely together, and communicate one with the other. For both of them, flowing out from the same divine well-spring, come together in some fashion to form one thing, and move towards the same goal."

Therefore making gods in the likeness of men .And not men in the likeness of God not seen.

I know what they teach. And I know all the pagan rituals are not pleasing to God. That isn't my point.
They affirm Jesus as God. You can't get away from that or pretend it isn't true. So that is our common ground. The starting point to any reconciliation. I'm not suggesting reconciliation to rituals and dogma for a moment. But at some point Protestants have to lay down their arms. That point is Jesus Christ.

We believe in one God,
the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
and of all that is, seen and unseen.
We believe in Jesus Christ,
his only Son, our Lord.We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
one in Being with the Father.
Through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation,
he came down from heaven:He was conceived by the
power of the Holy Spirit
and born of the Virgin Mary.
by the power of the Holy Spirit
he was born of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended into hell.
For our sake he was crucified
under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered died and was buried.
On the third day he rose again.
On the third day he rose again
in fulfillment of the Scriptures
that is not what you believe collectively that is a statement. and Just because one affirms a BIBLICAL THUTH doesn't mean they are saved. one is not saved but a lofty Creed many creeds are very good yet Creeds do not save you. and I am not protestant it is us vs them RCC vs protestant it is Jesus the only way. Or are traditions of men created to flees the flock.

Though I will probably take a look at some of your videos, I don't need to. I know God and the Israelites were black. Adam was formed from the "dust" of the "ground," for P.ete's sake. And for you to claim He was light as a rebuttal to Him not being black, is racist. Because God's skin is black doesn't mean He can't be the light if the world. It's obvious you're confused. Black skin does not equate to darkness, one of Satan's teachings, no doubt.
it is racist to assume Jesus has to be black for you to accept him. there is no proof Jesus was " Black" we don't know. a person of color yes most likely. However, you do not become the chosen people of God because of your skin color. You have an identity crisis and a slave mentality. You have to make it about skin color to give your life meaning it is sad. just like having white people say BLM to ensure one's life means something like white has to affirm those who are black matter. They Matter because God made all peoples.

What hatred? You're the ones expressing the hatred. You hate the fact that God is black. And telling the truth that God is black is not hatred.
Guy there is no proof God is black no more there is HE is white LOL . There is nothing in the word of God that says " Jesus the Lord who is black" or white. You are a racist or you are supportive of and an unbiblical statement that God is black.

.
Rom 12:16a . . Live in harmony with each other.

It isn't necessary to be in 100% agreement with others on everything in
order to comply with that command. But it is necessary to practice courtesy,
tolerance, patience, and tact, i.e. make every effort to avoid feuding, one
upmanship, and debating. The opposite of harmony is dissonance, which can
be defined as a mingling of sounds that strike the ear harshly, e.g. sour
notes.

For some people, every disagreement is an act of war to be won at any cost.
That's not harmony, that's militant. It's far and away better for Christians to
be diplomatic rather than be right all the time.

2Cor 12:19-20 . . For I am afraid that when I come I may not find you as I
want you to be, and you may not find me as you want me to be. I fear that
there may be quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, factions, slander,
gossip, arrogance and disorder.

1Thess 5:11 . . Therefore encourage one another, and build each other up,
just as in fact you are doing.

Building up is just the opposite of tearing down. Christians in Galatia were
busy doing just that.

Gal 5:15 . . But if you bite and devour one another, take heed that you be
not consumed one of another!

Biting and devouring one another describes cannibals and carnivorous
beasts.

You said that people who concern themselves with Christ"s and Israelites' race are not racists. Which leaves room for interpretation.
That's a lie. I said concerning yourself with Christ and Israel's race is not racist.

Can anyone not see what has happened to this thread, and there is a person that is manipulation the direction away from the subject of the OP? What is that being allowed to happen? One must ask themselves. If this person were really interested in engaging in a theological, historical or even logical discussion, they would have brought up their ideology in their own thread and OP, instead of hijacking someone else's and merely disparaging people in it.
Don't get mad at me because I get a lot of responses to my responses. I simply made a point and now everybody is addressing it.

Then why do you promote ridiculous and unbiblical ideas similar to theirs?
The only thing we have in common is knowing and professing that God and the Israelites are black. I believe [know] in the new testament and the new Israel, where God's house will be a house of prayer for all people. Isn't that what the scriptures say?

God is a Spirit thus color is immaterial. And Jesus of Nazareth was definitely not black. Brown would be correct.

So this bizarre notion of Jesus being black has absolutely no merit. Other than for black racists.

None of this has any relationship to the OP.
Racist is your reaction to the fact, plus you haven't posted anything proving He's not black. You just saying so does not cut it.

you have not posted anything prove HE is black LOL the argument is meaningless. We do not know. Was Jesus a European white I think because of geographical location, Historical narrative, and culture of the indigenous people of that time the answer is most likely no. However, can we say he was Black? No. Nor high yeller, or light-skinned or dark-skinned as many American blacks refer to those in The United States.

You're a moderator and you can't write? That don't make sense to me. Or are you mocking my writing skills? You know what they say about people who can't address the topics.

Which is wacky, indefensible, and (as to the Israelites), irrelevant.

That says nothing about the colour of God or of the Israelites.

it is not my fault you display ignorance and try to pass it off on my ability to write. You are being foolish now deflecting with your response to me. The topic(s) has been addressed in the all my comments before this post.

You made the assertion that He is black. It is your responsibility to provide evidence to support your assertion. This is not a courtroom; nobody is obligated to prove you wrong; we can just ignore your assertion as a deluded opinion.
