What is Black
Liberation Theology…?
Seeing as we are now down
to three main candidates, (I’m not ruling out George Bush
again) and one has a major history in Black Liberation
Theology, I thought you might want to know just what that’s
all about. Now keep in mind that this is in no way an
endorsement for John McCain because he too is a major player
in the New World Order. The real New World Order is not even
of this world. Let’s try to remember that scripturally we, as
Christians, are of a heavenly kingdom. (II Tim. 4:18) We are
in this world but not of this world.
Forgive them all Jesus,
for they know not what they do!
Now we all know about Dr.
Jeremiah Wright, former pastor of Trinity United Church of
Christ and former pastor of Barack Obama.
Many black churches were
involved from the 1950’s to the 1970’s civil rights movement
under the leadership of Dr. Martin Luther King and still today
most of these same churches are still challenging the
remaining vestiges of racial discrimination. However, most
black churches and ministers today are not to be identified
with the same Black Gospel espoused and declared by Dr.
Wright.
In the first place, there
is no such thing as a “Black Gospel” just as there is no such
thing as a “White Gospel.” Or any other color you want to use.
“There is neither Jew or Greek, there is neither bond or free,
there is neither male or female, for ye are all one in Christ
Jesus.” (Gal. 3:28)
According to Dr. Anthony
Bradley, professor of theology at Covenant Theological
Seminary, Black Theology is credited to James Cone in 1970 in
the wake of the civil rights movement on the premise that
Jesus was a “poor black man oppressed by rich white people”
and “God is not the God of White religion but the God of Black
existence.” And, according to Dr. Bradley, true Christian
service of black people is to deliver themselves from under
white oppression. In this, they are doing Christ’s service.
There are many different variations of Black Gospel, but at
least we now understand some of Dr. Wright’s preachments. And,
we can understand why some prominent blacks are anti-Jewish,
even though the black Jews from Ethiopia are an important part
of Israeli life today.
So, is Barack Obama a
born-again Christian? Or is he a Moslem? He states he is a
Christian but Moslems are taught to lie. He was raised in a
Moslem family.
The basic Scriptural test
for anyone is this… Do they believe in the deity of Christ? Do
they believe that Jesus is God incarnate? God made manifest in
the flesh as a man. Do they believe that Jesus is also the
Father? Is the Jesus of the Bible the only way of salvation?
This is the basis of Christianity. No cult nor world religion
believes this in it’s entirety. If Barack Obama has been
pinpointed on these scriptural questions, it has not yet been
revealed via the media.
Politics as usual in this
late hour are full of deceptions. |
