Weird how all of a sudden it becomes a superiority thing when god/jesus is revealed as being Black. What makes it superior all of a sudden? Its simply truth. I'm not superior because god/jesus were Black. Where did you get that idea?That doesnt make sense. Why would different people all envision a Black guy with wooly hair if you were having a dream and you werent Black?I'm glad you said it was just your opinion. Every description of god or jesus is of a Black person. No other race has hair like wool.God if he exists is obviously Black. Man was created in his image and the first men on the planet were Black.
This whole discussion is neither here nor there, to be created in gods image simply means that man has a spirit, or soul inside him, and in this way
man creates. He can either create for good or for evil this is his free will, but we are all in the image of god no matter what color we are, and this unites us all.
Of course this is only my opinion and the way I see things, to each his own.
Here is a description of god.
Dan 7:9
I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire.
Here is a description of Jesus
Revelation 1:14-15
14 The hair on his head was white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire. 15 His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters.
I suspect the one regarding Jesus was intentionally changed since wool is not as white as snow.
sure, I've read those before, but those were visions, or dreams. so much of this could be symbolic and we are reading the English translation, If you go to the original greek or Hebrew you can sometimes words can have multiple meanings in the english language. If you want to believe God is a Black man thats fine. I believe that god is not a man. could he have been embodied in a man's form? so that it would be easy for humans to understand? sure. But the form is just that. It could be any form of choice and the form does not make the being.
Again, just my contribution to the thread, only my opinion
The lengths people go through trying to explain away the evidence is a really just a form of cognitive dissonance.
Jesus Christ could have been Black, I don't really care. Does the spirit of god have a color? really? the lengths people go to in order to promote one races superiority over others. Now that doesn't make sense to me. especially when discussing the concept of God. Maybe I'm blinded by my foolish up bringing where I had this strange concept of all people sort of being ONE in god. If jesus christ was black? what does that really prove? and why is it even important?
