Brothers and sisters,

If Jesus was black, God would have shown favor amongst His people. But instead God has shown favor to our race because we are the chosen people.

To call my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ black is an insult. Our Lord could never be a gentile.

God has given dominion dominion over the planet to whites for a reason. He has also punished black people for a reason as well. Genesis 9:18-28

I don't believe God would have created His only Son from darkness. Who would actually choose a black child? Let's be real here. All I am saying is that we know God is white.

For black people to claim our Lord as being one of them is a complete insult to my faith. And it should be one to you people's as well, as you claim to be Christians.

Jesus:



Not Jesus!

[Virginia Day Templeton]

John 5:17
But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.

Jesus knows who his father is, and they both work. That about settles it.

[LackingLogic]

but you have no proof that he was not black other then a book with no evidence

We have the most historically accurate book ever written. What do you have? Oh, nothing, that's right!

Go polish your jackboots, you sorry FBI mole.

[LackingLogic]

toy have got to be kidding me THE FBI ARE AMERICAN NOT CANADIAN i was to work be the RCMP not the bloody fbi as well as the fact that you do not even know who wrote this "historically accurate" book just that it simply must be the word of god cause some lonely fvcker said it was

[DiscipleOfLight]

No need to claim him for ourselves just to make ourselves feel good.

I reckon an earlier thread here http://www.landoverbaptist.net/showthread.php?t=10696 is more accurate.

Jesus wasn't white or black. It seems he was somewhere in the middle.

You are committing two logical fallacies here, dear:

1) You are assuming that was not the Son of God but son of some random Jew;
2) Even if that was true (which of course it isn't), you missed the fact that Jews are, in fact, white (see this picture from the post you link to above).

Also, I would be much obliged to see an introductory thread from you. Thank you.

[Indian Sinner]

Lamentations 4:7 : Her Nazarites were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk, they were more ruddy in body than rubies, their polishing was of sapphire:

Does it indicate he was white?

Song of Songs 5:10 : My beloved is radiant and ruddy,
outstanding among ten thousand.

So there should be no doubt any more.

Or burn in hell.

[XspazzboX]

Yes he was. Pastor Jim Colerick says that Jesus Christ is his Saviour.

[Increase Boone]

It don't take no brains to figure this out. Jesus was a carpenter and my Pa says Coons are lazy and never work so Jesus couldn't be one of them.

[Regens Kuechl]

And dont forget, fellow true believers, that we also have as another proof of the pure nordic Aryan looks (fair hair and bright eyes) of the Savior the important historical document : The Letter of Lentulus
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_of_Lentulus

Lentulus, the Governor of the Jerusalemites to the Roman Senate and People, greetings. There has appeared in our times, and there still lives, a man of great power (virtue), called Jesus Christ. The people call him prophet of truth; his disciples, son of God. He raises the dead, and heals infirmities. He is a man of medium size (statura procerus, mediocris et spectabilis); he has a venerable aspect, and his beholders can both fear and love him. His hair is of the colour of the ripe hazel-nut, straight down to the ears, but below the ears wavy and curled, with a bluish and bright reflection, flowing over his shoulders. It is parted in two on the top of the head, after the pattern of the Nazarenes. His brow is smooth and very cheerful with a face without wrinkle or spot, embellished by a slightly reddish complexion. His nose and mouth are faultless. His beard is abundant, of the colour of his hair, not long, but divided at the chin. His aspect is simple and mature, his eyes are changeable and bright. He is terrible in his reprimands, sweet and amiable in his admonitions, cheerful without loss of gravity. He was never known to laugh, but often to weep. His stature is straight, his hands and arms beautiful to behold. His conversation is grave, infrequent, and modest. He is the most beautiful among the children of men.

True to your papist form, your appeal to extra-Biblical sources are an insult and offense unto the LORD. If the Good Lord wanted that extra stuff to be included in His Holy Word, He would have inspired the authors accordingly. If we were to follow your lead and accept any old thing written about our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, we'd be forced to consider such offensive tails as the Attempted Lesbianizing of Jesus' Mother as expressed in The Protoevangelium of James. This letter attempts to convince the gullible papist of an attempt made upon Mary's hetero-honor following the birth of Jesus whereby the midwife exclaims to Salome the wonderful news of the Messiah's birth. Salome says, "As the Lord my God lives, unless I thrust in my finger, and search the parts, I will not believe that a virgin has brought forth." At least in this story Jesus punishes the wench by burning her hand until she repents, then he miraculously heals it. There are certain facts we know about the birth of our Lord, like a star that stood directly above the place where the Infant Savior lay (Matthew 2:9). If you've ever tried to stand under a star, you'd know how difficult that is, but the idea that Salome would question Mary's virginity and then shove her fingers inside to confirm it is pure foolishness.

Or we might consider the Infancy Gospel of Thomas to believe young Jesus was naught but an imp, a mischievous young fellow with a bit of a temper who uses his supernatural power to wither irritating playmates on the spot. Anyone familiar with the Twilight Zone would naturally think of Billy Mummy's character, the tyrannical monster child who could do evil things by the power of his mind in the episode It's A Good Life. We know Jesus to be of strong conviction, but this is just mean.

We might be compelled to take seriously the Gospel According to Peter, in which Jesus emerges from the Tomb on Easter morning as tall as a mountain, supported by two angels of roughly the same size. Behind them, from the tomb, there supposedly emerges the cross. Bizarrely, the cross then has a conversation with God in Heaven. It's one thing to note that Jesus was temporarily dead, that the woman (John 20:1) or women (Matthew 28:1; Mark 16:1; Luke 24:10) who came to the tomb saw the single angel (Matthew 28:2-7) and yet angels (John 20:12) sitting on the stone (Matthew 28:2) and yet miraculously sitting on each end of the bed (John 20:12), but a giant cross talking with God is just silly. Why should we believe it?

By all counts the strangest of your extra-Biblical stories of our Lord is found in The Questions of Mary, now lost but quoted once by an early Church Father. According to this tale, Jesus took Mary alone up onto a mountain, and as she watched, he pulled a woman from his side and began to have sex with her. What happens next is even stranger, as it involves a case of divine coitus interruptus and the consumption of semen. Mary, not surprisingly, faints on the spot. We can believe Jesus brings forth a magic coin from the mouth of a fish (Matthew 17:27). We can believe Jesus curses a fig tree for not bearing fruit off season (Mark 11:13; 21). We can believe Jesus' paternal grandfather was Jacob (Matthew 1:6-16) and yet it was Heli (Luke 3:21-31) in a most moral, heterosexual, miraculous way, but to believe He had sex with a rib-woman in front of a whore is pure fantasy.

I don't know why you papists insist on believing such foolishness. Just because something is written down doesn't mean it's true, you know.

[Pastor Isaac Peters]

Guess what, Raisin Cookie: Even your fellow Mary-hailers reject the authenticity of that letter.

[WWJDnow]

Of course Jesus wasn't black. If he were black, he would have had a name like "JeMarcus."

[Freddy Osborne]

Anyone who thinks Jesus was black should take a good look at King James. Surely any mere human channelling so much of the Holy Spirit in order to create the one true Bible would bear a strong resemblance to Jesus himself.

How striking!

[Harsha Shah]

Yes I have been reading the writings of this forum for a while. I am starting to learn something about your Jesus that were not covered in my education.

For me this Jesus is a process. A process does not have skin colour that would be of importance. Jesus is process of following the guidance of a sage and it is the words and advise you follow, not the appearance. It is of course OK if Jesus is white. Why would it be a cause of fighting? Jesus is a process that is very complicated to understand. Violence is mixing with non-violence and I am finding it hard to understand when violence is being applied, when the non-violence? Yes. It is extremely difficult. There seem to be two truths to Jesus. The fighting man and the gentle. Yes. This is very exciting. He comes to bring the peace and he is coming with the sword. What an impressive figure he is. Yes.

So have you read the Bible yet?

...He comes to bring the peace...

ONLY for those who submit willingly.

Luke 2:14 (NLT) "Glory to God in highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased."

...he is coming with the sword...

That's for everyone else.

Matthew 10:34 "Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword."

Jesus was not black, Isaiah 53:2 - there was nothing about him that would draw us to him. I'm not going to get all technical up in here and go into black absorbing light or attract us, but regarding the color black, why are people claiming Him black, when his own people received him not? - John 1:11

I think it kinda ironic that some people claim him black as though to boast in themselves of a very superficial nature. Not even the Jews want to claim Him as themselves. Either way I find Isaiah 53:2 very interesting when considering John 6:44.

Once again we are in agreement, brother.

No way was Jesus a monkey man, Nigra under the curse of Ham. That's just plain common sense.
