Black people are hated all over the world. You say the N-word anywhere in the world and people know exactly what it represents. The N- Word is a byword and proverb all over the world. No other derogatory term for a people is more prevalent. That's why it says this in the Bible.
Deuteronomy 28:37 King James Version (KJV)
37 And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all nations whither the LORD shall lead thee.
It is important to realize Who these people are in relation to Ya. If you do research you will realize that they are Ya's inheritance. The true Israelites. Most in here won't be able to comprehend this fact. But for those who do not understand It is not in them to receive the truth. that is specifically why the bible is written in parables. Because the truth is not for.everyone. the united states of america with built on lies, and lies continue to fuel.this country. People would rather hear a reassuring lie than the uncomfortable truth. Just remember if it is the truth that will set you free, and the usa is build off of lies, does freedom really exist here?
Atheists are always stirring up trouble.
Since you have probably never left your county, I am guessing you've never crossed state lines. And I am willing to bet that you do not have a passport, so if you have never been all around the world, how do you know how people react to a word? And no, not everyone speaks English, so there are LOTS of places that would have NO idea what you are talking about. However, and oddly enough, the world is quite familiar with the concept of the pale-faced devil ....
Way better than reality TV waiting to see what gaffes this globe trotting dope will make. Another Bush which the world hates
the truth is out
Clever. An implied insult hidden in a comment. Very good. Did it make you feel Christian and righteous? Probably.
Why do people think they own God's church? IT IS NOT THEIR CHURCH IT IS GOD'S.
Yes, and god is a racist! God needs to deal with his issues and grow up.
Says the nonbeliever who rejects Jesus' truth for satan's lies.
It is not unusual or wrong to not wed couples who are not membership of the congregation. These days many couples have
venue weddings. Were they denied membership to this congragation? If so, shame on you church!!! Membership to those who have met the qualifications. This is NOT the Chirstian way. But my church & many others will not Marry couples who are not members. To join the church you need a clear understanding of it's rites and rituals This requires study after which you are
confirmed in the faith. You can transfer to another congregation.. but you must be confirmed. I have a problem which seems
to be a trend. A couple thinks a church is " pretty" and will make a wonderful site for their Wedding Photos !! Was at least One
a member of this congregation ? God deals harshly with ANY church that denies Menbership to those who have been prepared in the faith. Wouldn't it have made sense to JOIN a church & it's congregation before getting married? If they were members of the congratuon and denied a wedding service in Their OWN Church. That would be an outrage. If they were if they were planning to marry there would they not want to be members? Why didn't they just join the church? Then I do not see how they could have been denied.
NO church is ever required to be married. We have several floral parks in my city where weddings are alawys booked. Lots of places to go to get married, and a church is only ONE of those places.
Mirosal, if those parks and city locations are booked solid, they'll turn away couples and ask them to rebook their event. It happens all the time.
So its ok for a church to refuse to marry a gay couple but it makes news when they refuse to marry black people? I dont support the churches decision not to marry this couple but if we allow churches not to marry gay couples based on the churches beliefs; then we have to respect their other beliefs in not allowing black people to get married.
well being gay is not correct in the bible..so why would any church allow gay marriage..if its not written.
sky: perhaps they are being christian
Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
1 Timothy 1:9
Amen.
The parish people need to boycott that church and the governor should not let them open their door for church services.
I'm not a GOPer, nor do I play one on TV: "Oh yeah, that's right, I forgot, it was atheism that killed them, and not ruthless power-mad nutters bent on domination."
Couldn't you say the same thing in reply to the 'Hitler was a Christian' posts?
Black Africans are pure Ho.mosapians where as White Europeans are Ho.mosapians – Neanderthal hybrids. Isn't genetics wonderful.
This is true, has been proven that Africans interbreed and Europeans evolved.
the truth is out
We saw what you did. Clever. An implied insult hidden in a comment. Very good. Did it make you feel Christian and righteous? Probably.
Why is this news? That is part of the bible belt, there are more churches than fast food joints in that area, It almost a sure thing that the couple could have walked a block (or less) and found a church that wouldn't have cared if they got married or not.
Do you disagree with that particular churches actions? Then don't go there or support them.
According to genetic researchers 25% off all people in the United States who think they are pure white have at least 1 slave era black ancestor.
According to research, water doesn't combat dehydration.
It is always a good idea to take nearly every study you see with a fistful of salt.
Thank you ArthurP for reminding people of that fact, awesome. It's true and we should embrace all the cultures that created us and get past this. BTW- shame on that church. It amazes me what cruel things "people of God" actually do to each other and others... Makes you think.
@Flame – what research are you doing? If I am thirsty, I drink water, and I will not suffer the effects of dehydration. ... That is a pretty simple study, with not very much research, but you have evidence to dispute that? Please share. I am really curious as to what you are talking about.
The words of the NEW Testement: Love Thy neigbor as thy same color 😉
ahahahahah didn't i just say something about this
"have the courage 2012
to tell the qu eers NO !"
flash foreword
soo.. why is the main opponent of civil rights in US history always been Christianity?
>>>"soo.. why is the main opponent of civil rights in US history always been Christianity?"
Yeah, the Black Churches and ones like Rev Martin Luther King were Christians and from the times of Slavery and the many African American churches that began the march from Slavery to Civil Rights.....
...since there so many African American Christians can you say that "Christians" were holding back. That's like that Whites were standing in the way of Civil Rights while ignoring all the Whites who worked for Civil Rights.
The j.ews were the first to be deceived by satan. You atheists prove that they are still deceived.
dear Jill i'm a pagan not an atheist and i don't worship the god of destruction and deception; you do
Mark from Middle River don't confuse the issues he but if you want to talk about Christians method of converting the conquers we can, any black man who is a christian is ether indoctrinated from birth or a traitor to their people, Christianity was the cause of slavery of the African, it was about religion,.. you see Christians could have just as easily enslaved the Moroccans or Nubians but because they were Muslim Jewish and Christian it was immoral, so they wen west and east to grab up the animals(pagans), god has giving them the right to own all animals and that all we pagans were to them, so they rounded us up and made us beast of burden, "pagans are sub-human, animals. and God gave us dominion over the beast" was the common sentiment at the time
Sam Yaza, you are twisting and contorting history as well as knowing that these Christians that owned slaves didn't read scriptures properly. For each generation, more of Jesus' truth is unveiled. Not every white person owned slaves. Most Europeans didn't come to the USA until the late 1800s, early 1900s. You don't even know who sold their own people to whom?
And of course, it just had to be in Mississippi.
Here's some 'virtual rotten tomatoes' to Crystal Springs, Miss, aka Tomatopolis.
Where are Pastor, Dr. Stan Weatherford's cojones? A small group in the Church objected? Is he not the spiritual leader of the First Baptist Church of Crystal Springs and able to follow the example we all would imagine Christ would set?
Just sayin is a liar and has no evidence for its god.
Yup.
Jesus of Nazareth. God bless
Good evening folks. Everyone is invited to visit ... thestarofkaduri.com
Fuck off with your spam.
Saladandchips.com has nude pictures of linCA. Her real name is Linda Carlson. Check it out.
@Satan
You had to go and spill the beans, didn't you? I guess there's no reason for me to keep our little secret (with the emphasis on "little").
Hey everybody! Satan has a tiny dick.
How very Christian of them.
"Atheism is not healthy for children and other living things"
Let me know when atheists deny black people, interracial couples or LGBT people their right to marry, or any other basic human right.
There is no comparison between racial equality and perverted sin. God bless
Um...atheists deyniying rights....how about Lenin? Stalin? If it sounds like bringing up these famous atheists sounds like I'm playing a cheap trick, it's just to point out the problem of this kind of reasoning. To take the actions of a small percentage of one group and make them representative of everyone in that category is what is known as stereotyping. We don't really want to do that, do we?
More people have been murdered by atheists in the last 100 years than were killed in all previous centuries. God bless
There is no comparison between just lyin and a sack of elephant dung. Oh, wait...my mistake. They're quite similar in content and meaning, but the elephant dung is useful in gardening.
False and you know better, given how often you are around here. Those killings were not done under any guidance of atheism, whereas both the bible and the koran demand murder.
Those murdered would have lived full lives had it not been for atheism. God bless
Oh, and now you're attempting to prophesy what would have been? You're incredible! The arrogance you exhibit is beyond hubris.
Better watch your step, just lyin. Pride goeth before a fall, and based on your bloated posts, you're due for a crash course.
Oh yeah, that's right, I forgot, it was atheism that killed them, and not ruthless power-mad nutters bent on domination.
Ruthless power mad nutters describes atheists perfectly. Thanks. God bless
Margaret, you do, but deny it as you point your fingers at Christians.
Praise Jeebus.
Prayer changes things
False.
True. God bless
False. If you disagree, present your proof, or just go away if you can't.
True. Salvation. God bless
Now you know their true colors.
