Preston. Every time I hear you minister through this poem my heart aches so bad and I become weak when you talk about our ancestors being WOKE and then I am encouraged when reminded that our God has crowns for us, too and with Him and in Him we have peace, justice and rest. Powerful. 😢

Salvation is for all brother. No matter white or black or Hispanic or Asian. The gospel is for all. Jesus died for everyone. We were all morally depraved before God and Jesus is the mediator between God and man. “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.“ Galatians 3:28 God bless you brother remember that it doesn’t matter what what race Jesus was he was the savior of the world. But Jesus was a middle eastern man as we see it portrayed a descendant of Abraham. Abraham came from Hur in the Middle East. Therefore Jesus is middle eastern. But nevertheless again it doesn’t matter we have to stop making everything about race we all bleed the same brother. We’re all human brother made in the image of God. I love you brother and care about you a lot man God bless🙏

As a white Christian, I stand with you as my brother first and foremost! I stand with you in Christ against all injustice, and injustice specifically done against black Americans from our days as colonies to the present. As a human, it would be easy to turn to hate against those of us who share ancestry with a people who have physically and psychologically torn apart your relatives and your relatives’ relatives and so on and so on throughout our often ugly history. As a natural flesh and blood human, it is understandable why an individual or group of people, persecuted and marginalized, would choose hate. But you didn’t take the easy road. You took the narrow road, the arduous path that Christ took and who has called all of us to take. You appealed to God’s supernatural journey beyond the natural. Not only that, but you raised the bar and call all of us to do the same. Thank you brother. And yes we are brothers in the name that is above all names, Jesus Christ!
@OURUSSELL5 жыл бұрын
DJ DJ thank you for your reply. I consider it a privilege that you would even have a discussion with me. Please accept that everything that I say and ask is meant with due respect to you. Let me ask you a question. Is it easy for the majority of people to make a lot of money (say $250K or more)? Stats show that only 5% of Americans make that or more. So 95% of the U.S. makes less than that. So the answer is no it is not easy and I know that the majority of Americans would like to make that kind of money. If it was easy, the majority would be doing it. Now let me ask you another question... When you watch the news, do you see a lot of negative and divisive footage of people verbally, politically and even physically fighting against each other? Or do you see a majority of positive stories of people coming together and loving on each other? I dare to say that negative news far outweighs the positive. Now I know that there is probably more positive news out there than is being reported, but negative news sells. 1) Why is there more negative news? 2) Or Why does it sell better than positive news? 1) Because it is much easier to hate, be defensive, side with people that look or think like us, etc... 2) As humans, all of us have sinned and fallen short of God’s glory. Our hearts are naturally and desperately wicked. Our tendency is to be drawn toward hate and sin not toward forgiveness and goodness. We don’t naturally seek out God or Jesus on our own. I also respectfully disagree with assessment of what it means to be or to be motivated to be a Christian. Christians don’t come to Christ in order to wait for Jesus to come back and fix things. Having this anticipation may be a part of theology that leads some to take on the mentality. But even if that is so, waiting is not easy in this world of instant gratification, especially when the person waiting has no idea when Jesus is coming back nor has any control over His timing. But people decide to trust in Jesus because they see the devastating effects and nature of their own sin. And they realize that He is God...that He is the only one who has paid for that sin... and they don’t want to live a life of sin like they did before knowing Jesus. And now they want everyone to have this gift of Jesus that they have now found. That’s the motivation and essence of being a Christian. And it’s not easy because to follow Jesus is to say that I don’t want to live in or by those tempting, seducing and short pleasure filled sins that I used to with. So I respectfully and categorically disagree with you. That is why the majority of people do not follow Jesus. It is not easy

Adam Meade Do you see it in your white friends, too. Do you see the endless cognitive dissonance displayed at the hands of white people?

Yes. I live in Trump country so I certainly do and I speak on it when I can. Perhaps more importantly, I try to set an example in how I live my life. I'm not saying I'm without faults or even that I'm without blind spots or prejudices. As Perry stated, though, the same correcting Spirit that authored all of creation resides within me and I try to heed His instruction and direction. I was only making the point that it is more difficult to address this particular pitfall with my black brothers and sisters because of my ethnicity. There-in, it is perhaps better for me to speak with my actions and conduct. :)
