Why I can’t join the Black Hebrew Israelites
An ugly package
It’s unfortunate that this one truth of black origin is proclaimed mostly by people who lack the Spirit of God. In their pride, many Black Hebrew Israelites have condemned other races and pretty much turned a lot of black people, including black Christians from receiving anything they have to say.
What the devil has done is packaged truth in such an ugly vessel that no one will receive it and thus keeping it hidden from the masses of blacks who may stay ignorant to their true nationality. Without knowing their identity, it may be difficult for them to unify and repent. Thankfully, there are sound Christian pastors who are getting the revelation and telling the truth.
Judgement
While many gentile nations took advantage of the slave trade and joined the Europeans in kicking Israel while she was down, and continue to benefit from the systems put in place to keep the yoke of bondage on the Israelite, they will be judged even though God allowed their wicked deeds to go unpunished for so long.
While slavery/servitude is allowed by God, there are laws that state how you are to treat a slave. To say that the rulers of this country went a little overboard is a huge understatement. The bottom line is: God saw it all and it will be judged. In the old testament, there’s many cases of God allowing one nation to punish Israel and then turning around and judging that same nation for the harsh mistreatment of Israel.
Finally, when they tell you to bless Israel so God can bless you, perhaps you should start praying for the ghettos of American cities.
Thank you so much for writing this article. I take comfort knowing that I am not alone in my perspective and belief on these subjects. However, I do have a problem with christian churches who go out of their way to break the law as if to prove their trust in Christ. In exchange, they unknowingly adopt pagan christology practices given to them by the gentiles. To me, the laws written in the old testament are not your only tools for salvation (we must also accept the Gospels of Christ), but the laws are also your forgotten culture, holiday traditions, history, and agreement our ancestor’s made with the Most High. The true Israelites have been christianized for several hundreds years, yet we are still suffering under the curses. It makes me think that somewhere or somehow we are missing something. Christian need to just read he bible and stop follow the gentile’s misinterpretation of Apostle Paul, and know that we are still accountable to the law, minus the sacrificial laws. FYI, if you find a christian church you can stomach or a non-cultish Israelite church, let me know. I’m forced to fly solo until then, a Nazarite.
Hi Kendra. Thanks for your comment. What do you mean by “However, I do have a problem with christian churches who go out of their way to break the law as if to prove their trust in Christ.” How are christian churches proving their trust in Christ by breaking the law? And by law I believe you mean the 10 commandments and the Mosaic law (minus the sacrificial laws). Please clarify.
Christology has evolved significantly since the 4th century. I have attached this link which outlines some of these changes. I am not affiliated with this source, but the chart is a quick reference. http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/False%20Religions/Roman%20Catholicism/catholic_heresies-a_list.htm. Although many protestant churches may not like to admit, they stem from the Catholic church due to the protestant reformation. Be it popes or pastors, christian church leaders profess to be led by the holy spirit which has been erroneously blamed for directing the faith into numerous directions. Depending on which christian church you attend, the elders pick and choose which old testaments laws are to be followed and how. For example, Saturday Sabbaths, Feast Days, and the dietary laws are null and void but tithing 10 percent of your earned wages is not. If you research the Jewish Inquisitions since 70 AD, many hebrew practices especially those not innate to Roman culture were deemed anti-christ. It mattered not if you accepted the Gospels of Christ, keeping hebrew traditions could get one labeled as a Judaizer, hence persecution. Following Saturday Sabbaths, Feast Days, Circumcision (physical), dietary laws easily led to prison and death. Today, your faith in Christ is called into question if you adhere to the laws especially those not supported by that particular church. I believe that Apostle Paul was stressing to the people that keeping the laws and rejecting Christ would not lead to salvation. Yet accepting Christ without adherence to laws does not lead to salvation either. Christ stated that if you love him, keep his commandments which is the law. Many christians will disregard the laws because we are covered by grace, incapable of always keeping the laws, and profess to love the Lord. Yet how? Our goal is to be a disciple of Christ and that means being like him, a keeper of the law. FYI, my personal opinion is that there is really no Mosaic Law, but Christ Law. The laws were given by the Most High through Moses, but Moses did not create them on his own.
Kendra,
So are you basically saying that we must keep the laws of God in order to be saved? I would agree, but only in the context of living by the Spirit of God. Through his power and only his power are we able (John 15:5). As the scriptures say, the righteousness of the law is fulfilled in us when we walk after the Spirit of God.
Therefore the focus shouldn’t be on the “rules” but the relationship with the Most High through Jesus Christ, in the Holy Spirit; And through this relationship he teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and live upright lives (Titus 2:11-12 NIV). Better yet, he transforms us.
If we attempt to keep the laws in our flesh, we will fail, just like the ancient Israelites and many of the modern Israelites do today.
All this talk about the law, but no submission to Holy Spirit and no power to keep it is pointless and ends in death. If we follow the Spirit of God we automatically fulfill the law and will find ourselves walking in righteousness with God without even “trying.”
Nice read. I believe in keeping The Most High’s laws, statues and commandments as we are told to keep as a sign that we are with Him. I denounced paganism, heathenistic ways and misinterpetations. These laws are not grevious and it feels wonderful to have an underdtanding of The Ancient of Days, His Son, and The Holy Spirit, how they operate and what is expected of us. I’ve always tried to do right, but we all fall short. There’s about 613 laws, but following those first Ten keeps us in line with the rest.
I’ve came upon His truth two years ago and I am a witness to seeing The Lord come through as He said he would…calling on the right name, or shall I say title because His name is sacred. I refer to him as Ahayah Asher Ahayah because that is the title given to Moses when he asked “Who shall I say sent me”. Ahayah Asher Ahayah is ancient Hebrew meaning ‘I Am That I Am’. Ancient Hebrew is the language of The Creator. I use the term ancient because the modern spoken Hebrew is a mixture of other languages including Yiddish. I know those claiming to be Jew-ish are mere Romans. The 12 tribes make up the nation of Israel wjo wete carried out of the lands in Israel. Blacks in America fit those curses in Deuteronomy. That slavery was prophesied by Christ himself as a warning if the people disobeyed God and started following the ways of the other nations. The tribes are still fitting those curses, as a whole, its never been about individuality. The Most High didn’t want us dealing with religions, but the “protected way of life” mapped out for us in that bible. The bible is the only book that’s timeless and can chart our story from the beginning to ptesrnt, to the end. All prophesies happen in the order they are written. This world do what they do but long as we be obedient to the word, we don’t have to worry about the crafty councils taken against His people. There is comfort in knowing just how much His love is important to us. For the love of God is to keep his commandments.
I don’t bother with the Israelite camps that condemns and cuss at people, although the scripts quoted be correct, their actions ate not righteous. God is no respector of persons. He gives us His Holy Days, Feast days and Sabbaths to keep, which we enjoy. Fellowships are awesome! Although it is war time when we wake out of our “sleep”, we are covered by grace. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but with principalities and powers in this earth. Its spiritual. The arguing among who’s right or wrong is confusion, the bible points out all iniquities, and many try to avoid the books of our forefathers yet claim they are servants. A true servant should never be upset or afraid to look to the book for answers, warnings and instructions on survival. He commands us to survive, but in His righteousness. There is such a thing of living a righteous life, one must pray to become of it. Ask and you shall reveive. Funny thing how this world plans things against God’s people, but they always forgot to take council with Him and ask what He thinks about their plans. Keep in mind that things happen to His people because of the rebellious state we are in as a nation. The apocryphal books can minister to you of the many times when the people were obedient and were UNTOUCHABLE when the other nations rose against them. How angels were sent to fight before everyone’s eyes, and some battles when the enemy saw those angels descending from the heavenly realm, they tucked tail and ran off screaming “they got their god with them, he is more powerful!” That apocrypha opens full understanding and has everything to do with the spiritual influence of Our Father. Don’t believe Rome, they didn’t want us to know and took them out the bible.
If you question, why now that this knowledge is out among the people, its because Jacob has been forgiven and salvation is now at hand for us to cling to and get right.
Ive enjoyed reading this blog and I pray for all our strength in The Lord. He’ll never leave nor forsake us. Amen (translate -So Be it) Much love to all my people, Jew and Gentiles alike. Let’s get ready for our Kingdom <3
We are not under the Law of Moses today. Jesus came to fulfil the Law. He did this when He died on the cross and His blood rent the temple in two. Jesus is the mediator of a New Covenant (Hebrews 7-9). Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law by being made a curse for us (Galatians 3:13). The Law has been done away with. There certainly are moral teachings in the Law in which we should abide, such as not to murder, commit adultery, steal, etc. These teachings are found in the New Testament (Matthew 19:18).
The Law says that we should not lie, steal, covet, or commit adultery. Jesus said that if you look at a woman with lust, you have committed adultery with her already in your heart. Since we cannot keep those Laws, we are guilty before God. The Law was never intended to make us perfect before God. It was to show us our sinfulness and show us our need for Christ (Galatians 3:25, Romans 3:20). The issue is a heart issue. As Jeremiah says, God will write a New Covenant on our hearts (Jeremiah 31:31-34).
Hello Ella,
May I offer a suggestion? Start reading the New Testament beginning with Matthew, and read and write down only the words of Christ written in red in some bibles. The words of Christ is the best response to your post. Now, we can either follow the instructions of Christ or depend on man’s misinterpretation of Apostle Paul.
In my prior response, I attempted to respond to your question and clarify how christian churches today break the laws. I am not sure if my comments were received or understood. Anyway, regarding the Holy Spirit, let it be clear that accepting the Gospels of Christ (keeping his commandments), and submission to the Holy Spirit are mandatory for salvation. However, this does not give you an open pass to break the laws and follow pagan practices. But when in Rome, I guess we do as the Romans. Our introduction to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit was through the gentile’s eyes. Prior to Christ, the invitation was open to the gentiles to be adopted into the Israelite faith. But for some reason, they did not want to do that. Adherence to the laws deterred them possibly, who knows? The gentile’s interpretation of the gospel allowed them to profess a belief in Christ, create christology, obtain salvation, yet maintain many of their pagan customs. But where does that leave us, the scattered children of Israel and the gentiles who are seeking the truth? Do we continue to accept the religious beliefs of our oppressors as stated in the Book of Deuteronomy 28:64. If we do not follow the laws, become spiritually circumcised, and return to righteous living, we will never remove the curses regardless if you profess a belief in Christ. I can’t mention how many website are pushing these doctrines of Grace, Once Saved Always Saved, and Laws leading to Death. Why is there so much resistance to following the laws? Sure we may stumble, but the point is that we must keep trying. If the law is nothing, then sin is nothing. Then what is the point? If we could not follow the laws as ancient Israelite and we are not required as Christians, all may appear hopeless as it’s been for the past 500 plus years. But the scriptures state otherwise, and I know that we will be delivered from the curses as it is written: “And in those days the children shall begin to study the laws and seek the commandments, and to return to the path of righteousness.”
For the most part, I am in agreement with you. But, I have to part ways regarding your last statement about “…walking in righteousness with God without even ‘trying.'” All of these christian denominations are a result of people who believe that they are automatically fulfilled with the law and walking in righteousness. The Holy Spirit has been so widely misused by the those professing to know Christ that we needs some kind of standard to rule out false teachings. If by chance the standard was based on the laws, where would that leave christianity today?
Walking in righteous without trying does not apply to all in Christ. In fact, gold is tested in fire, and God purges and scorns those whom he loves. To be a disciple of Christ, you may face separation from and/or hate your family, friends and even your own life. That does not sound like something that is accomplished without even trying. At least, not for me. It is true that sins of the flesh are easier to resist as you flee from sin. The psychological and spiritual attacks come next which are a lot harder to deal with than fleshy temptation. However, those attacks can be overcome by believing and following Christ, relying on the Holy Spirit, and patience and waiting for the dawning a brand new day. Peace unto you.
Hi Kendra,
My response to your previous comment didn’t make it into my last response. Sorry about that. I did understand what you meant after your clarification. And I agree: mainstream Christianity is derived from Roman Catholicism which are the perverted teachings of Jesus.
What I mean by pleasing God “without even trying” is simply yielding to the Holy Spirit to do the work. The follower of Jesus’ job is to yield to God, because without his power we can do nothing. When you TRY in your flesh, you fail, but when you yield to the power of the Spirit, you are successful.
The reason why professed Christians fail is not because they didn’t try hard enough, it’s because they didn’t yield to the Spirit of God. The only effort on our part is to yield and this is hard because the flesh wants to obey God without God’s power. The flesh is independent and doesn’t want to yield to God. What I want to make clear and deter people from doing is going back under the law apart from the Spirit of God—attempting to fulfill the laws of God apart from the leading and power of the Spirit of God. Without the Spirit of God we can do nothing. This is the main problem with the Black Hebrew Israelites—a bunch of angry, discriminatory, powerless-over-sin, men and women void of the Spirit of God.
Let me be also clear that anyone who practices sin and thinks grace is a license to sin will not inherit eternal life. This, the scriptures are clear on, so I hope you didn’t think I was advocating that.
Kendra, you definitely have the Holy Spirit guiding your understanding! I view this the same as you. Churches teaching that we are under grace and basically saying it’s okay to sin -just don’t forget to repent. Its like they are using The Son to sin against The Father. This method is so wrong because many foget to repent or die without a chance to confess their sin. Sin means the transgression of the laws. Christ says, ” Repent, and sin no more.” Paul clearly explains, (if only they would keep reading to the end of that chapter), Grace comes from keeping the laws. Back then sin equals death. Christ came and, not changed but alteted that by bringing salvation to the people, meaning long as you are keeping the laws, you are under Grace. Should you happen to sin, you may repent that sin with intentions of not repeating that sin. The sin is forgiven and wiped away from your record. Grace is given so you won’t die from the sin committed. (The other law Christ altered was the daily sacrifice because Christ was the last sacrifice).
Also, in agreement, temptations. We certainly can run from sin. Temptation is something else. Every time we give in to a tempting spirit, we take on about seven more with the initial, thus, making it harder to fight whicj is wjy so many battles are lost. The best way, in my opinion, to overcome temptation isto bring it to The Most High in sincerity. He is a deliverer and healer. But one must want that change. He said, seek me first and all will be added unto you.
We are living in Revelations, many have researched truth and the movement of Coming back to The Lord by way of Christ is on the move. Revelations means to reveal and Our Father is all about revealing -tell the truth and shame the devil. Our Saviour is of service for He indeed served His people.
The Christ preached about in churches, especially those in mainstream and the Christ I read of in that 1611 are two different people. The one I read about spoke with authority, did not play arounf when it came to doing The Father’s bidding. He was perfect, kept every law and did so to prove that we may not be perfect, but what is required is not hard to follow. Dietary, Civil and Moral laws he kept. The New Testament was not written when Christ walked the earth, therefore he taught out of the Old Testament and said he did not come to change not one dot in the Laws of the prophetd, but to fulfill… as in do them. He certainly couldn’t have spoken soft when he had to speak to a multitude. He did call people out on their iniquities. There was nothing small or weak about Him. He was bold yet humble. He taught to the Pharisees and Saducees, even as a child. The Lord knew the masses would be mislead which is why after Christ’s death, God broke the temple indicating that the way back to Him. Too many lies and safe sermons keeps his peope asleep with that watered-down knowledge.. These church leaders have read the Bible enough to make the pages crumble, they see the truth buy still will choose not to share what thus said The Lord. Have people saying grace over abominal foods as if Christ really is going to bless swine on anybody’s plate to nourish the body. Wont tell you the real image of Christ written in the bible looks nothing like the one you see hoisted everywhere. Starting with color of skin, color and texture of hair hair. We find out there were no letyer “j” in ancient Hebrew alphabet, yet they are still calling on Hey Zeus. They are doing all of this blasphemy in the church houses, tsk, tsk. One must wonder how they go to church, call on and praise that name but leave and still be just the very same as they came. Took out the fear of The Father. Saying his name repeatedly for no reason, He hates that, but winks at our ignorance. If people don’t seek Him or ignore/reject Him, he just may turn them over to a reprobated mind. A reprobated mine isn’t someone you see talking to themselves, but its when He allows you to continue doing what you’re doing and believe its the right thing, self-destruction. I warn people about this a lot when I’m in my each-one-teach-one mode. i have a big heart and care too much so those who had an ear, I let them hear. Not all accept, but that’s alright. The reward isn’t promised to anyone nor is everybody seeking righteousness in their life.
Hundreds of millions of Black people have be murdered ever since, we enlightened those barbaric Europeans. I don’t not believe for one minute, that God/Goddess has nothing better to do with it’s time, than to plan and execute the persecution of Black people for an aggrieved wrong. There have been a lot of Black people who have returned to the fold of God/Goddess, but are still catching hell. Just recently, a white man murdered nine Black people in Charleston, in of all places, a Church, the house of God. The way how Black people approach the bible, makes it a foolish book, with foolish promises for foolish people. But in that book, there is liberation, our approach is all wrong. You can go to your enemy, to find liberation. We Black people are being mis - educated by white people on all sides, to keep us in a position of inferiority. After that shooting in Charleston and the treatment of Black people around the world I ask myself what the hell does God/Goddess want? I think religion is just a creation by frightened people on this disgusting decaying planet, to help them deal with their insignificance in the whole big picture that is the Universe. The Creator/Creatress has given Black people what they need to overcome, but they are too damn lazy to do what needs to be done, and it is simply, to look within ourselves. If we cannot find God/Goddess within ourselves, we’ll never find him/her outside of ourselves. We pray and beg for what we have already been given, but we do it because we think we are connecting to God/Goddess, through that activity.
Sankofah, believe what you want. I believe the Spirit of God empowering man is the solution.
All praises to the most high, I’m a bit perpkexed by the teaching of some of my Israelite brothers. It seems that they regard the law higher than the finished works of Christ. They also believe that speaking in tongues has ceased in which I strongly would disagree. I believe whole heartedly I am a Israelite sister who have the gift of the holy ghost. My saviour has watched over me and has blessed my family tremendously. He is leading me to the truth thank you for your article, as it speaks certain truths to my spirit.
Amen, Wendy.
To the Sacred Namers:
Did Jesus ask people to believe only in his name only or WHO he was? It’s not just about knowing the correct pronunciation of the name but the person behind it. Knowing HIM, in his nature and characteristics, and obeying HIM is what saves us!
I’ve called on the name of Jesus and seen demons cast out. It’s not about the pronunciation, spelling, whether or not a J should be there. It’s about knowing him. He knows who you’re talking to if you call on him with the right intentions.
To the Hebrews insisting on keeping the law apart from the Spirit of God:
YOU CANNOT FULFILL THE LAW WITHOUT THE SPIRIT OF GOD! THE MAIN REASON THE ANCIENT HEBREWS FAILED WAS BECAUSE THEY INSISTED ON OBEYING GOD IN THEIR OWN WAY IN THEIR OWN STRENGTH. DON’T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE AGAIN!
I have watched many Hebrew Israelites teachings, and I find that most of them do believe that they are functioning with the Spirit of God. They profess a belief in Christ and the gospels, although some areas may conflict with our religious understanding. Some but not all, simply have a deep-rooted hatred towards the nationalities and races who inflicted genocide, captivity, and dispersal of our people throughout the world. Period! Is their hatred understandable? Yes. Justified? No. All Hebrew Israelites must know that it was the Most High who turned us over to the curses. We wanted to follow the ways of the gentile’s instead of His commandments; therefore, he made us serve the gentiles. The bible gives us clear instructions on how to find favor in the eyes of the Most High again and obtain salvation.. Yelling, arguing, and loud talking others with biblical scriptures makes my heart heavy.
Anyway , I agree that you cannot fulfill the law without the Spirit of God. Likewise, if you have the Spirit of God, you will keep the commandments. My own personal opinion is that if you must deviate from the law, statues and commandments as King David did with the grain/bread during the famine, let it be for your own common sense purposes when in dire need. Don’t readily break the laws to conform to gentile traditions.
Amen, Kendra.
Hitler sure thought the present-day Israelis were Jews. So do modern Neo-Nazis and Islamic radicals. And as far as DNA goes, European Jews have genetic predispositions that are rare among European Gentile populations, such as Tay-Sachs, BRCA and the Cohen gene. And there’s also the preservation of the Hebrew language and biblical feasts for thousands of years.
There’s been a lot said about Hitler and his relationship with the Jews. Some say the Holocaust never existed. I’ve even read statements supposedly from him stating that he executed the fake (white) Jews, which were trying to take over his country like they’d done with most of America; and then he made a note not to hurt the negroes, ‘God’s people’ because he felt that God would repay him. I don’t know for sure. But I’m not basing this off of Hitler. So much information and mis-information. You just have to go with what you believe is the truth. My research says that the so called black man are the scattered Israelites.
If you’ve read Hitler’s book “Mein Kampf,” you’ll see that he also despised blacks, as well as disabled people and the Roma (gypsy) ethnic group. While he used Christian rhetoric when speaking to audiences, his spirituality was based in paganism and the occult.
You cannot used John 3v16 with understanding everything that was said and the definition of the word world also what what it was translated from and the definition of that word but even today the word world don’t mean every it’s has a few meaning one being a specific group of living things just take that into perspective and I’m pretty sure the Israelites were a group of living things and the hardship they went through and still are do you think YWHW will make them equal to others who haven’t faced his curses even though they are special? Maybe all will be in the kingdom but Israelites will be royality the ruling class and other will be common people God said don’t question he has the right to make out of the same lump of clay something that is sacred and something that is for common use but he is clear that Esau edom Edomites have no place for repentance period and that no one from the house of edom will exist for all the terror blood and deciet they have brought into the planet even to the natural planet that they make money off destroying think about it
Jaeson, you used not one scripture to back up your claims. However, I get your point and I don’t agree. The Bible says, “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13). That was written by Paul from the tribe of Benjamin of the Israelites to the church in Rome which comprised of Israelites and Gentile Romans (Edomites).
There’s too many scriptures in the new testament that open the door for other nations to be saved including people with white skin. And I see no scriptures that say that people with white skin cannot be saved, or that Romans or Edomites cannot be saved.
As I mentioned in the article, excluding white folks from salvation has everything to do with some black folks’ unforgiveness towards whites.
If a white person who especially took part in white supremacy repents of his/her sins and aligns him/herself with the goals of the Kingdom of God, they can be saved. God doesn’t show partiality.
However I do agree that there will be levels in the Kingdom and some will have more than others.
I like the fact that you are searching, if you continue on the same path you will see why the nation of Edom cannot be save. Its not just them being edomites its there nature will always lead to a ungodly kingdom as long as they rule. The other reason prophecy say they will be distroyed. Now if you continue you will see that gentiles in the new testament is referring to the Samaritans and gallelee. They are remnants of the northern kingdom and they had no dealings with the Jews of judah. The next thing anything can be taken out of context when not viewed in its full context eg John 3:16. In 2 Peter 3:15 he told us because Paul writing is hard to understand people will misinterprete it. Read Romans 9:24-26 then Hosea 1:10-11 to understand that Jew is those of Judah and these gentiles are Israel ( northern kingdom).
Anybody, whatever their skin color can be saved if they repent and be born again and follow Jesus to the end. God doesn’t show partiality. However, there are many nations he is against—I do believe that. The question is, will those who are apart of that nation disown their government for the kingdom of God, if so, they can be saved.
That was the most helpful read by far. I was raised Christian. My cousin recently started posting stuff about Hebrew Israelites. I decided to do some research. Of all the articles I’ve read this describes God’s awesome love and his anger when we strayed from him. The world needs to know we all need a saviour regardless of what color he is. Although I’m pretty sure he is a man of color
I totally agree, Jeneva. I’m glad the article was informative to you.
Good points with Deut 28 about going into captivity. If it’s true that those sold into slavery from Africa to America were actually Hebrews, I agree that repentance is absolutely the answer, as it is also the answer for every person and nation that has rejected Christ.
I will have to do more research, but I tend to believe many of your points. What comes to my mind is the fact that historically, European oppressors in America always justified their wickedness by saying it’s God’s will for dark people to be cursed. Perhaps they weren’t referring to “Africans”, as widely believed. Maybe they were referring to the Hebrew tribe that was sold to them by the Africans.
I appreciate your comment, Donna. And thanks for keeping an open mind and continuing to do your own research. Yes, perhaps whites were referring to the Hebrews being cursed. While this article wasn’t about giving exhaustive evidence of blacks’ Israelite descent, it detailed a lot of signs, but is absent of a lot more.
Here’s some more
From the times of Jesus, in Israel, while under Roman rule, Israelites were persecuted and they fled (in 70 A.D.) into various parts of Africa to get away from Roman persecution. We were later captured by Edomites/Europeans (white folks) in Africa and brought over in slave ships to America and across the world.
We went to Africa the same reason why baby Jesus and his parents fled to Africa/Egypt when Herod was killing all the newborn babies, and the same reason why Moses was saved in a wicker basket across the Nile River and raised among the Egyptians—we did it because we could blend in with the African people. And we know that Egypt/Africa was and is a dark-skinned people by the ancient hieroglyphics. Therefore the Israelites are a dark-skinned people. Joseph’s brothers didn’t recognize him when he was second in command to Pharaoh in Egypt, this is because Joseph was “black” just like the Egyptians.
Pretty much everyone in the bible is “black” or a brown-skinned melanoid people.
These are some of the things that Yah reveals to me
Back in 2009 I read and article that the blacks that are in America are the Israelites that are in the bible and it amazed me so because of all things we have been going through since the dawn of time. And now I heard this again back in 2015 is God telling us who we really? I am a Christian and lately I have been having some doubts about what the church has been teaching me. I know that the Most High God sent his son Jesus to die for my sins I have no doubt about that. What I have been confused about is the Laws of Moses and if we are supposed to keep them such as the Dietary Laws and the Moral Laws the Sabbath etc. I know that I have not kept the dietary or the Sabbath because I was taught that was done in Old Testament and it does not apply to us today. I pray through the Holy Spirit that I kept and followed the 10 Commandments. I feel in my heart that I am not walking in accordance to the scripture. Can someone help to understand what I am suppose to follow in the scriptures regarding the Laws of Moses.
That’s a good question, Tina. One of which I haven’t studied and written extensively about yet.
I know that Jesus is higher than Moses; and Jesus said, “If you love me, keep my commandments” (John 14:15). So I would start by what he commanded in the New Testament and follow Him and the his New Covenant apostles.
Hebrews 8:7-13 says that the Old Covenant was done away with, and the New Covenant writes the laws of God on the hearts of his people—I believe this refers to the Holy Spirit in us who leads and empowers us to please God. This scripture really defines it for me:
If we follow the Spirit, we fulfill the law.
I can understand your concern as it’s mine as well. I watch a lot of awakened Israelites go back under the law, they don’t kill animals for their sins, but they stick with the dietary laws, the clothing requirements, and the sabbath (which Jesus had some strong words on). I haven’t looked deeply into all of this yet, but I am. In the meantime, I believe following the teachings of Jesus are sufficient for salvation.
I believe that many of the lifestyle Mosaic laws/customs are beneficial to anyone and should be respected and observed, but I don’t believe that in keeping these a person can be saved. I believe God cares about the character of man and the perfection of his soul and he ain’t tripping about us not having tassels on our clothes. I see nowhere in scripture where someone was stoned for not having tassels.
Like I said, I haven’t done a bunch of research on it. So don’t take my word for it. However, I currently have no conviction from the Holy Spirit about not keeping the Mosaic laws as of now, but I do follow some of them.
NealReal thanks for your fast reply. It was very helpful and I was enlightened by your response. I am on a journey myself and I am learning more each day and your blog was the most inspirational so far that I have read. I have been on YouTube and listening to the Black Hebrew Israelites and they seem to be on point but the way in which they communicate God’s word to me is not of the Holy Spirit and that is just my opinion. Ihave heard another young man twist John 3:16 around to say that God did not save the who world and that was a little far fectched to me. We are in our last and evil days even we as Christians have to be careful of false teachings because there are alot of people twisting God’s word. God bless you for letting the Holy Spirit use you to spread the Good News of the Gospel. I know if I have anymore questions I know who to come to.
Tina, I’m glad this has been helpful for you. I see the same thing where Israelites twist scripture to justify sin and, you’re right, there’s a lot of awakened Israelites that are void of the Spirit of God. I believe the remedy to these is humility and an understanding of the New Covenant.
I enjoyed your post from beginning to end…thumbs up! I began suspecting something about our people in 2003, but I could not find much information to attest to what I was feeling. I think the main verse that caught my attention in scriptures back then is
Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is every one who hangeth on a tree”), Gal 3:13
I came to know the truth by accident (but not really), I was searching Amazon for a documentary to watch on the Jews in Israel today and the documentary from Hebrews to Negroes popped up in my watchlist, I listened kept the saying in my mind and let it go, then a few months later I decided to get on You-Tube to find teachers on the scriptures since I wasn’t in church. Ran across one particular teacher and he did a series on the Children of Israel and he said there are Both Black, Brown and White Israelites today because king Solomon had many wives. I still wasn’t convinced until I kept running across testimony after testimony about who the children of Israel are today and I knew it wasn’t a coincidence. I knew the Holy Spirit led me here, because I have been praying for years about our people. Asking the Lord to help me understand why we suffer, why we are hated by everyone including our own people. Why we went through slavery and there seems to be no justice. I love my people and I hate to see us in the state we are in so to me the only true answer could only come from the Father and he showed it to me.
I have been to many sites on the internet hoping to find true Israelite Churches who teach the truth concerning the Word of God, and I have come across some that have some understanding of the Word, but I also feel like they are missing something that is very key to salvation and that Is the Fruits of the Spirit. Scripture teaches us that we will know them by their fruits and when I select a teacher I have to see the Fruits evident in their lives.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
(Galatians 5:22-23)
I have to say, there was not one thing you said I disagreed with. I do believe a race war is stirring, and it’s odd that you mentioned it because two days ago I said the same thing as I began to read different blogs and saw the hate other nations have for us. I also believe we cannot keep the Law aside from the Holy Spirit, that is why he was sent as our comforter and teacher, furthermore, Just because you are physical Israel does not give you an automatic pass into the Kingdom. Every person has to go the same way.
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (Jn 14:6)
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. (Jn 3:5)
But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. (Jn 14:26)
Thanks again I hope to read more of your writings!
Thanks for your comment, Tressa. God is waking his people up. I appreciate the scriptures you included as well. They’re so refreshing.
WoW…I am not an avid reader, however, I actually took time to read this entire article. Thank God that I did. I recently learned about the TRUE Israelites and begun to follow the Black Israelites on youtube. Although I do not agree with everything they teach, I have made donations to their cause. I must say, what they teach has given me extremely useful knowledge of me and my families origins.
Moreover, this article and the scriptures you provided has caused me to become more mellow with this new information, to use the information to educate my family and began the correct path to the one and true God.
Thank you for this article.
I think it’s good that you are supporting by giving alms. I also think that we should study the word and continue to pray regardless of who is stating what they believe and be guided by the Holy Spirt.
Thank you for this article…you have listed some of the reasons I “set myself apart” from their groups/camps/assemblies. Yahawah didn’t allow me to get caught up in the error of the “Christian church system” and He did not do that for me to turn around and get caught up in the error of the Hebrew Israelites.
The “Christian Church” is pretty much dead, as it should be because it was only allowed to survive because the plan of the “powers that be” was to control us, however Yahawah ALWAYS has His plan and He used it to make us free. Now that it has turned to idolatry, [worshipping money and prosperity], He is done with it. Judgment is coming…
AND what many of the Hebrew Israelites have designed is leading to “death” as well. Black women have been reduced to just a vessel for sexual pleasure, having children, and being beat. They are taught they are to be a “blank slate”, and many have become suicidal. Leaders believe they can “rape” females as young as 9 years old. Polygyny is rampant, even among those who claim to be Messianic, with men having up to 7 wives and swapping them out at their leisure…when they see someone they want more.
ome camps have killed women and children…boys are being molested. Then there is all types of crimes being committed, STDs running rampant, drug usage, etc. And all of this is being done while using scriptures, taken out of context, to justify their actions.
Everything goes unchecked because people are being taught to ignore the laws of the land…don’t talk to the police, don’t register your babies at birth, or your marriages, etc. so pedophiles , molesters, and abusers are running the camps…uncharged and unreported.
I choose to bypass the foolishness and just stay close to Yahawahshi Ha Mashyakh….letting Him lead and guide me as He has all these years.
I have posted some research I did regarding polygyny on my FB page. as well as addressing other issues. Maybe one day you will view them.
Shalom…
Elisheba, I agree with your comment. What’s your Facebook page?
This article is refreshing. I too have accepted that I am an original Jew and agree with a few of the points mentioned here. However, I choose to observe the sabbath and keep the laws through the power of the Holy Spirit. I agree with another poster that Christ’s death does not mean we have a free pass to remain in sin. That is what the church teaches. That is how you see Christians living. You cannot tell Christians from the everyone else. Christ said he’s not come to destroy the law but to fulfill it and that he did because we no longer have to sacrifice animals to atone for our sins. I believe the following the laws show true separation from the things of this world which is how Christ commands us to live. The apostles clearly kept the law even after Christ’s death. Christ is seen to have kept the law during his life. To me living as a true Jew without the law is like getting a drivers license (which in this analogy represents Christ dying for our sins) and then driving however you want just because you have the permission to drive.
Felicia, we believe by yielding to the Spirit of God can one fulfill the laws and commandments of God. We don’t believe that people get a free pass at sin—that only leads to judgement and the lake of fire.
Hello neal, very interesting article and to the point. I have a couple of questions if you don’t mind the 1st being that some people refer to Jesus as the Son of God,others say he is the Messiah but was human, and the one i believe is that he is God made flesh.
i believe him to be God because there are many references to him claiming to be God and being equal to God. One that i have not heard anyone compare in the bible is that “if you believe God raised him from the dead you shall be saved” kind of making it seem as if Jesus is not God goes hand in hand with “destroy this temple and i will raise it up in 3 days” making the connection that he is God, what is your take on this and the trinity if you don’t mind me asking. I would like to get this right as to know whom it is we have to worship in truth.
also the topic of the judgment and the lake of fire. Im of the view that the second death means just that and those condemned to it will be no more. The mainstream Christian belief is that they will burn forever but i recently have come to see that there are also others that believe it will destroy the soul as some passages suggest.what is your view on the judgment, and how do black hebrew israelites see the judgment?.
also i know that transgression of the law is sin but lets say for example a person that drinks some beers occasionally and smokes…would that qualify as “those who destroy the temple God will destroy” or is that referring to murderers?. And lastly the “if your hand or eye causes you to sin cut them off” constitutes as destroying the temple. Don’t worry,im not planning on doing anything bad but i just want clarification on these topics seeing as they sound quite serious by Jesus own words. I would like your honest opinions on these things as im sure you will do so.
And finally once we repent and turn to Christ, if we fall back into temptation do we have to repent of that deed? as some say and show from scripture repentance is a one time thing if truly repentant. Thank you for your time.
