    All I want is a church involved in evangelism and making disciples. Even the missionary baptists will give money for foreign missions but won't even have a prison ministry! I do not know of any churches in my city that is involved in evangelism within the community. We give out food baskets but leave the soul to be lost. I am not looking for perfection. I am looking for the basics.

    As a super duper woke Israelite I completely condone this message. The growth will come full circle. Some are a bit too compulsory & judgemental when they encounter new info, but truthfully YHWH has already told us to be at peace. Be not hasty. This is about redemption and reconciliation to Him not condemnation of others. Let YAH distinguish between who is His and who is not. Excellent interview ✊👑

      return there is going to be fast talking and slow walking. there are opposites which means now is the
      time to turn evil to good.

      What needs to be understood is the way some ethnic groups have taught Christianity. 2nd, race( to an extent) is important but MORE IMPORTANTLY is the RESPONSIBILITY we ( of all ethnic groups)have once we receive the truth of gospel. We all must truly study God's Word to get the truth. "RACE" is only a section of discussion.

    Church people are regular people and the only thing that sets us apart (that should) from any other sinner is that we are saved by grace. Our righteousness is not a self-righteousness, but one achieved by the perfection of Christ. Thus... we can still get on people's nerves no matter how much we love God. ---Reality is we must learn (as it was said) self-control and conflict resolution in order to function within the church.
    That being said, the purest example we have of the church is the church in Acts right after the day of pentecost. The picture painted there was folk being selfless for the Love of God and the Love of other people (as we were commanded). You skip on through to the epistles and you see folk started actin a fool.
    Paul had to send letters to tell folk to stop braggin about how much more advanced they were than everybody else cuz they could speak in tongues. That thing is still happening today. To say that one has to gain equity in the church before they could go to the WORD of God and ask that the WORD be heard over tradition... well... frankly, it is incorrect, inconsistent with the ways of God and simply wrong.
    How did Paul address that issue? He said ***I Speak in tongues more than any of you... shoot... why don't you aspire to prophesy or sumthin'... do somethin that edifies the church and not just yourselves...***
    ^^^a lovely paraphrase^^^
    I think we need to go to God and go to the Word on how to handle some of these things because the reality is... When people OUTSIDE the church come with criticisms of the church... YES, they come with the intent to criticize, open a wound and let it fester...
    and often those people are inaccurate... those are the people that come saying you don't need to tithe cuz it was for the levites and you don't need church cuz church wasn't a building in the bible.
    BUT.... When folks FROM the church come with criticisms or corrections, more often than not it is a plea that someone will HEAR them instead of dismissing them and to suggest that they don't have enough equity (whatever that is) to bring forth the Word of God that they have studied and rightly divided... that's no good. It goes against all that we know in The Word...
    Tradition is not a sin, but it is not God. Sometimes the voices of tradition can be MUCH louder than the voice of the Holy Spirit and when we allow the tradition of don't-speak-unless-spoken-to (or don't-speak-unless-you're-agreeing) to rule our hearts, we surely cannot say that we have not hardened our hearts to the voice of the Holy Spirit.

I was really blessed by this discussion between you and Amisho. Keep up the great kingdom work. The body of Christ needs this. It is the work of every believer to sharpen one another's swords, to effectively cut through the lies. I need aids like this to minister well in my context. I am overwhelmed by this. Thank you.

  • @saul2paulproject
    @saul2paulproject 2 года назад

    One thing that is concerning to me in church (black, white, whatever) is the gatekeeping and over-emphasis on leadership. Too many times the congregation is boxed out of conversations and having a voice. Equity was mentioned, and spiritual immaturity and arrogance can definitely inhibit someone’s ability to contribute wisely. However, there are many strong, mature, committed believers who don’t hold leadership roles, whose voices are kept at bay because they are not “leaders”. A nasty little secret in many black church’s is that the power structure is controlling and oppressive. A woke response is a natural and appropriate response to this kind of unbiblical leadership. That doesn’t mean “woke” folks are always right, but the questions are valid, and the answers cannot always come from those who hold power. The black church should never frame the “woke movement” as something negative. The woke movement is a legitimate movement of people who are questioning many toxic religious mainstays in the black church that have become acceptable in our modern times. Instead of ridiculing these people, see them as equals (yes they have a voice, they have equity)- engage them with respect and compassion, because unfortunately, many of the criticisms are quite valid.

      Kevin Hill Yes, I agree with you, but it depends upon what you mean by spirituality. As followers of Christ, our spiritual allegiance is to Jesus Christ alone. A lot of the conscience community is hostile toward Christ, indulge in ancestor worship, etc. That’s not to sound pompous or bigoted, but it’s something the scriptures warns us about.

    Great video, very educational and heartfelt. That concept of having equity in church ⛪ movement. It is important for those who have only been a believer for a year to understand that "equity" concept. For them to contemplate those of us who have been in relationship with The LORD יהוה for decades; and not of our own works. By grace, through faith. But there is alot that can be learned over those years that someone who has just been born (born-again) to consider. Respect and conflict resolution. With God, אלהים, no time is wasted.

    Septuagint - What is It?
    Septuagint (sometimes abbreviated LXX) is the name given to the Greek translation of the Jewish Scriptures. The Septuagint has its origin in Alexandria, Egypt and was translated between 300-200 BC. Widely used among Hellenistic Jews, this Greek translation was produced because many Jews spread throughout the empire were beginning to lose their Hebrew language. The process of translating the Hebrew to Greek also gave many non-Jews a glimpse into Judaism. According to an ancient document called the Letter of Aristeas, it is believed that 70 to 72 Jewish scholars were commissioned during the reign of Ptolemy Philadelphus to carry out the task of translation. The term “Septuagint” means seventy in Latin, and the text is so named to the credit of these 70 scholars.
    Septuagint - Influence on Christianity
    The Septuagint was also a source of the Old Testament for early Christians during the first few centuries AD. Many early Christians spoke and read Greek, thus they relied on the Septuagint translation for most of their understanding of the Old Testament. The New Testament writers also relied heavily on the Septuagint, as a majority of Old Testament quotes cited in the New Testament are quoted directly from the Septuagint (others are quoted from the Hebrew texts). Greek church fathers are also known to have quoted from the Septuagint. Even today, the Eastern Orthodox Church relies on the Septuagint for its Old Testament teachings. Some modern Bible translations also use the Septuagint along side Hebrew manuscripts as their source text.
    Septuagint - What Does It Contain?
    The Septuagint contains the standard 39 books of the Old Testament canon, as well as certain apocryphal books. The term "Apocrypha" was coined by the fifth-century biblical scholar, Jerome, and generally refers to the set of ancient Jewish writings written during the period between the last book in the Jewish scriptures, Malachi, and the arrival of Jesus Christ. The apocryphal books include Judith, Tobit, Baruch, Sirach (or Ecclesiasticus), the Wisdom of Solomon, First and Second Maccabees, the two Books of Esdras, additions to the Book of Esther, additions to the Book of Daniel, and the Prayer of Manasseh.
    The Apocryphal books were included in the Septuagint for historical and religious purposes, but are not recognized by Protestant Christians or Orthodox Jews as canonical (inspired by God). Most reformed teachers will point out that the New Testament writers never quoted from the Apocryphal books, and that the Apocrypha was never considered part of the canonical Jewish scripture. However, the Roman Catholic Church and the Orthodox churches include the Apocrypha in their Bible (except for the books of Esdras and the Prayer of Manasseh).

I think I'm pretty knowledgeable in Christian history, if your statement was directed at Christianity borrowing from some other religions, it be interesting to know what? Worshipping on Sunday has it's foundation since the early Church in Acts. Furthermore, any day is a day of worship. "The Law" speaks of that through all the feasts and festivals God had ordained after the Exodus.

      @18LUmo 6 лет назад +2

      TmanTroy because the truth that we all know is most likely orchestrated and structured for the black ear. "Jesus died on the cross" is a universal biblical truth that we all know however, how it's presented is key. The reason why certain truths need to be adjusted is because of culture, language, and even opposing views in said particular community.
      Black people usually cryout because being left out is the standard in general. You'll hear from any outlet that black folk are the cause of most problems, murders, thefts, etc. When it's not entirely the case. We will most likely hear commentary on how we need to do or form certain movements that will effect change in our black community but when something like this comes along, it's an issue.
      Being left out, isn't racism nor does it imply ill will.
      Trust me, it's all love. It's just she most likely has a plan or ministry that has been geared and crafted for the black community hitting on particular black issues.
