Book Description
Blacks in the Bible. The first question the New Testament asks a Black man reading Scripture is, "Do you understand what you are reading?" God used dirt to "make man" in His image, the Imago Dei. He formed Himself as a soil colored man then placed that living image of Himself in Africa where His Garden began and where man's oldest bones are found. So, it is illogical to think that Adam, God's Image of Himself as dirt, was white. Do you know what book of the Bible is solely dedicated to a black woman? Do you know that Joseph was appointed an African wife by Africa's greatest king? Did you know that Ham was the only son of Noah that rode on the Ark and had land named after him? (Psalm 105:23 & 106:22) Did you know that Goliath that David slew was black? Did you know that every time God cursed skin, He turned it white, never black. Do you know the only verse in Scripture that God declares "I am black?. saith the LORD, and that there are no "I am white" Scriptures? Did you know the last person Jesus healed was black? Do you know the only non-Jewish apostle of Jesus Christ was black and he descended from Canaan, "and Ham is the father of Canaan." Do you know that Christ did no call any white apostles though Romans were all round Him? Do you know what Israelites passed as black royalty in Scripture? Do you know the two most powerful Queens in Scripture were black women. Do you know that Moses married an African woman? Do you know that the name of Ham's sons are on our maps today but their names in Scripture are hidden in Hebrew words? Do you know that there was no white blood in the children of Israel in the entire Old Testament and neither is there any white blood in the bloodline of Jesus the Messiah who has four infusions of black blood in His lineage. Do you know only one white man spoke in the Old Testament?

Book Description
The Complete Works of Blacks in the Bible is 565 pages, illustrated, and uses the genealogy chart of Ham the father of the Black race to trace who was of the lineage of Ham in Scripture. The tribe from whence Jesus sprang, the tribe of Judah, began as a half black tribe when Judah, the tribe's founder married a Canaanite in Genesis chapter 38, "and Ham is the father of Canaan" the father of Canaanites. David killed a Canaanite and took his Gilonite-Canaanite wife which makes King Solomon as half black and half Jewish man. Ancient Egypt is called "the land of Ham" in Psalms 105:23 and 106:22 which means that the Pharaoh's who ruled over the land of Ham were black kings. The Scripture shows that the all the women in Jesus Christ's lineage had strong blood ties to Ham, the father of the Black race. Ham's sons, which are Noah's grandsons, are on our maps today. Their names were written in the King James Slave Trade Bible in Hebrew as a Cush, Mizraim, Phut, and Canaan to hide their black history. In English, Ham's sons, Noah's grandsons, names in English are Ethiopia, Mizraim, Libya, and Canaan. This book shows that blacks influenced every book in the Old Testament wherein only one white male, a descendant of Noah's eldest son Japheth, had a speaking part. This book unmasks the fact that only Hamites married Shem's the father of Hebrew Semites in the record of the Old Testament. No Europeans intermarried with any Hebrew in the 39 books of the Old Testament. When Joseph summoned every Hebrew in the world to Africa they totaled 70, and only 2 of them were females. So, who did the 56 Hebrew bachelors marry in the land of Ham when accompanied their by the 11 founding fathers of the tribe of Israel. Jesus had no white blood in his veins, yet Eurocentrism depicts Him as a white male. Jesus Christ was NOT an Ashkenazi Jew.

Book Description
Abraham and his wife made their African slave a surrogate mother and she bore Abraham a half-black heir. Later, God wished to use Moses and his Ethiopian wife and half-Ethiopian sons to raise up a new race of Jews to replace the twelve tribes of Israel. Let's not forget that the Almighty did not object when Jacob passed "the blessing of Abraham" on to his half-African grandsons, Ephraim and Manasseh, in North Africa. In light of these facts it's amazing that early Americans wondered if blacks could be saved especially since it was big news to Jews that gentiles (Europeans) could be saved. Prior to the Apostles of Christ's debate about whether Europeans, called gentiles in Scripture, could be saved, Niger and Lucius were black Bible teachers at Antioch (where believers were first called Christians) and an Ethiopian eunuch had been saved and baptized. (Acts 13:1, 15:7) The first king, queen, prince, and princess in the Bible were black. It was an African princess who found Moses floating down the Nile in Africa. Later Esther a dark skinned Jew won a black beauty contest that stretched from India to Ethiopia. Blacks in the Bible Vol. I shows you truths stranger than fiction.

The Bible is Black History

Pages : 0
Book Description
We live in an age when younger African-American Christians are asking tough questions that previous generations would dare not ask. This generation doesn't hesitate to question the validity of the Scriptures, the efficacy of the church, and even the historicity of Jesus. Young people are becoming increasingly curious about what role, if any, did people of African descent play in biblical history? Or, if the Bible is devoid of Black presence, and is merely a book by Europeans, about Europeans and for Europeans to the exclusion of other races and ethnicities? Dr. Theron D. Williams makes a significant contribution to this conversation by answering the difficult questions this generation fearlessly poses. Dr. Williams uses facts from the Bible, well-respected historians, scientists, and DNA evidence to prove that Black people comprised the biblical Israelite community. He also shares historical images from the ancient catacombs that vividly depict the true likeness of the biblical Israelites. This book does not change the biblical text, but it will change how you understand it.This Second Edition provides updated information and further elucidation of key concepts. Also, at the encouragement of readership, this edition expands some of the ideas and addresses concerns my readership felt pertinent to this topic.

The Talking Book
Author: Allen Dwight Callahan
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300137877
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
The Talking Book casts the Bible as the central character in a vivid portrait of black America, tracing the origins of African-American culture from slavery’s secluded forest prayer meetings to the bright lights and bold style of today’s hip-hop artists. The Bible has profoundly influenced African Americans throughout history. From a variety of perspectives this wide-ranging book is the first to explore the Bible’s role in the triumph of the black experience. Using the Bible as a foundation, African Americans shared religious beliefs, created their own music, and shaped the ultimate key to their freedom—literacy. Allen Callahan highlights the intersection of biblical images with African-American music, politics, religion, art, and literature. The author tells a moving story of a biblically informed African-American culture, identifying four major biblical images—Exile, Exodus, Ethiopia, and Emmanuel. He brings these themes to life in a unique African-American history that grows from the harsh experience of slavery into a rich culture that endures as one of the most important forces of twenty-first-century America.

Revealing (black) Women in the Bible

Pages : 128
Book Description
"REVEALING" (BLACK WOMEN) IN THE BIBLE There are many "Black Woman" in the Bible - all descendants of "Ham," (Noah's dark-skinned son) Gen.10:6-29. However, because "all" women in the Bible are always depicted as "White/Caucasian," in books, pictures, films, sculptures, and even pictorial Bibles, you wouldn't know that! So, today, we will "Unveil" (Black Women) in the Bible! There are "32" women featured in this book. Not only are their stories finally being told, but each is also displayed with a beautiful, colorful photo that represents what they could have looked like during their lifetime (Old Testament) as well as (New Testament) eras. To better understand the diversity of peoples on the earth, we must get an understanding of "how" it came about. Here's how it all began:When God decided to end the old world with a "flood" (saving only Noah, his wife, "3" sons and their wives); "8" people in all, the entire earth became populated from these "8" people who were already descendants of mixed races of people (Gen.7:13).No one was cursed "Black" as African-Americans have been told by religious, racist White people, but were already Black when they entered the Ark. Noah and his sons were descendants of Adam and Eve (who were also dark-skinned - created from the dark soil of the earth - the "dust" or "ground," (Gen.2:7).Scripture lists each of their descendants. Noah's wife was "Caucasian," but Noah, himself, was a "dark-skinned" man. We draw this conclusion by the sons Noah produced. Noah's oldest son, (Japheth) carried more of his mother's "Caucasian/melanin deficient" gene. According to Scripture, his descendants all migrated to a colder climate known today as (Europe). There are only "4" short verses in the book of (Genesis) stating where Japheth's descendants eventually settled - nothing more, no history whatsoever! When we research each of the places listed, they are all, indeed, regions that make up "Europe" (Gen.10:2-5); the homeland of the White race.The entire rest of the "Old Testament," and "New Testament" is the history of Noah's other (2) sons: "(Shem)," and "(Ham)!" Shem was Noah's middle son. He inherited a balanced mixture of both parents; taking on more of a typical Middle Eastern complexion (light tan/brown). The history of Shem's descendants covers "11" verses in Genesis, (Gen.10:21-32). But the Jews living in Israel today are "not" bloodline descendants of "Shem" (ancient Israel) - they converted to Judaism many years later. They are called "Ashkenazi Jews," meaning, they are bloodline descendants of "Japheth" (melanin-deficient Caucasian)!This explains why it appears strange to non-White races of people that racist Whites hate White Jews (they all look alike). Both carry the same melanin-deficient DNA of "Japheth!" The only difference is their religion.But Noah's youngest son, "(Ham)" inherited his father's (dark-skinned)! And his descendants' history covers more verses than his "2" brother (Japheth, and Shem), "14" in all (Gen.10:6-20). Both "Shem" and "Ham's" history can be followed throughout the Old and New Testaments. And surprisingly, Shem and Ham's descendants married interracially regularly, i.e., "Moses" (Shem descendant, married "Zipporah," Ham descendant) Num.12. So, here's where we find the history of (Black Women) in the Bible. So, come, learn the hidden spiritual history of (Black Women) in the Bible!

The African American Guide to the Bible
Author: H.C. Felder
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1641140089
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
The African American Guide to the Bible makes the case for the relevance of the Bible from the perspective of people of color. It presents a comprehensive biblical view of topics of interest to African Americans and clarifies racial issues for white people. Part 1 addresses the inspiration of the Bible by giving evidence for its authenticity. A considerable amount of time is spent on examining the original text of the Bible, the archeological evidence, and the evidence from predictive prophecy to demonstrate the uniqueness of the Bible. Part 2 deals with the black presence in the Bible by demonstrating the prominence of people of color and black people in particular by highlighting their importance in the plan of God. It explains what it means to be black and demonstrates that the scientific and biblical evidence are both consistent with respect to race. Part 3 is a response to the arguments of racism used by critics of the Bible, for example, "Christianity is the white man's religion" and "Bible supports slavery and racism." These arguments are examined and evaluated in light of scripture and the context of history. Part 4 deals with the unity of humanity from a biblical perspective. It shows why racism is not only unbiblical but is evil when understood from the perspective of God.
