    Re: Hello Everyone

    Excuse me for finding you racist, good people. However, I do question some of the claims you are making with the Old Testament. Of course, the Old Testament is just as a part of the Bible as any other, however Jesus is the fulfillment of these older books. He is giving us new orders and making the new and everlasting covenant with us. Such as in John 13:34. He proves he is changing the traditional ways. John 8:1-11. He is asking us to realize our own faults and not go around condemning others. To remove the log in our eye before the splinter in our neighbor's.

    It seems to me that you all are attempting to live by the old laws on the Old Testament. You are attempting to use what Jews call the Torah to justify and base your actions. Perhaps Judaism would be a better alternative for you because Christianity is certainly not about who does and doesn't go to heaven. It's about uniting with one another in this world of hardships and maybe, just maybe, getting along for once.

    And Mr. Ezekiel, I do not believe that a simple grammar error constitutes me lying, so not I am not.

    Welcome to God's favorite forum, Ken. I must say, it always causes raised eyebrows when a new poster fails to properly capitalize the name of their own Church. You wouldn't be lying to us now, would you?

    If you'd like to find out more about Landover Baptist Church, please read THIS thread created especially for new posters.

    If you have a question, use the "search" function before posting it. Most likely it is being discussed somewhere on this Godly forum. Please don't waste God's precious bandwidth.

    You will keep a respectful tongue in your head whenever addressing your betters, which includes all True Christians™. Failure to do so, or any attempt at inciting debate or mockery of God's Divine Plan, can and will result in the suspension of your posting privileges.

    Your rights on this forum are listed HERE. If you feel that any of these rights have been violated, please don't hesitate to contact a Pastor at once.

    Are you familiar with the Curse of Ham? The Lord abhors miscegenation among His flock.

    Genesis 24:3
    Genesis 28:1
    Exodus 34:12-16 ; Deuteronomy 7:3 Deuteronomy 7:4
    Joshua 23:12
    Exodus 34:16 ; Deuteronomy 7:4 ; Joshua 23:12 Joshua 23:13
    Judges 3:6 Judges 3:7
    Numbers 12:1

    Genesis 26:34 Genesis 26:35
    Numbers 25:1 Numbers 25:6-8 ; Judges 3:5-8
    Ezra 10:3

    There are no differences in skin color in heaven to God. Even the sons of Ham can get to heaven. They just have a steeper hill to climb because of their cursed nature.

    And as Brother Zech has already pointed out, you are taking so many of those scriptures out of CONTEXT!

    I would start with this sermon that addresses your concerns about who is a brother and a sister according to the Holy Bible.

    Bible Answers: Who are our neighbors? Who are our brothers and sisters? Who are we to love?

    I'll give you a minute to read it.

    Yeah, that would explain all the negro Disciples.



    All of the quotes you selected are either Jesus speaking to His Disciples, to other Christians, or letters from Paul to Christians. I'm beginning to see a pattern...

    Well, thank you Mr. Jones. I'm sure you would be glad to know I volunteer at least 7 hours a week at our local charity and simply love the great joy that helping others come closer to the peace of Christ brings to me.

    I do have one question: why is there a picture of what appears to be members of the terrorist organization the KKK (Ku Klux Klan) chasing an African American on your site?
    It's the Holy Ghost chasing away sin, so the individual can become "white as snow" (Isaiah 1:18).

    Friend, nothing could be further from the truth. We believe that everyone, everyone should have a shot at redemption and salvation, even the lesser races.



    Yours in Christ,

    Blessing in the name of our Lord and Master Jesus Christ, Ken.

    It's good to see you doing good works. That must be a sign that your faith is strong in that you display good fruits.

    I am glad to see one of Jesus' possible predestined preordained servants here with us.

    Also, why would you assume that these poor we are suppose to help would be living with insects and rat droppings?

    Haha, heavens no. These were simply the less fortunate of the city. My group and I helped at a soup kitchen, homeless shelter, rode public transport all day, and had a simple meal for dinner. Of course as you know, we based this around the principle of seeing Jesus in all people. When we help the less fortunate, we help him. Matthew 25:34-40

    Welcome then, Ken.

    This immersion experience you speak of; did you actually associate with those poor people? Were there insects and rat droppings?
