Pretty much a type of brain washing, it was also the same mentality which
gave Hitler the power and authority to exterminate the Jews. To keep
condemning a particular group of people until everyone has the same
mindset, then once achieved to exterminate them. By which time
most will go along with it.

Hi, My understanding of why the Jews first thing, is that they were the first peoples to worship the One True God.

What about Abel?

Gen 4:3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.
Gen 4:4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering:

Wow can’t believe how much this thread has deteriorated.
What are we doing now, slandering people for posting an opinion.

I would add that I live in UK, I’m mixed race.
Personally I had to put up with a lot of racism, name calling growing up.
I’m 50 now. The racism has almost dimished to the point where for me
anyway, it’s non existant.

I do encounter it occasionally and it’s invariably the older generation,
who were taught and grew up with this kind of ignorant thinking,
who are still of that same mindset. Like the old lady in the bus stop
last year who was openly telling her old friend that these “bleep bleep”
should go back to the jungle where they come from.

I honestly think that unless you are in a position to experience
racism for yourself, either because you are non white or because you
have family/friends who are non white. It’s hard to appreciate the
harm and venom by which it is expressed. The intent and thinking
behind it, are pure poison, I would go as far as saying satanic by nature.

The reason being is that a racist person, somehow holds the belief that
a non white person is something less than human, which goes completely
against everything the bible teaches.

Racism demonises people for the colour of their skin. It assumes
“Evolution” somehow created a lesser being.
It is also a thinking built on fear and ignorance.

No genuine born again Christians could continue to hold such views
against the backdrop of the word of God and God’s love.

As has been in an earlier post, I think the problem is that churches often have
congregations of the genuinely saved and the traditional church
attendees who go to church out of tradition, who are not born again.
Hi, You are right. 1 Jn 4;20 'If anyone says he/she loves God while he/she hates his 'brother' is a LIAR....etc'. The father of liars is the devil the Bible says. Sadly there are those 'supremists around that are possessed with a spirit of hatred. Remember Jesse Owen who won the Olympics against the 'supremists'? How hard was that to swallow. What??? Huh??? These haters hate most everyone diff than themselves and I pray many of them repent soon.

Hi, Good point. However, I'm sure some commentary said as a 'people' the Jews were the first ones to recognize God as the One True God, when others had idols/demons. I am definitely going to do research on this again. The notes even said God saw them as His guinea pigs, in the constant testing of their Faith.

Just because you took offence to many. not most or all shows narrow mindedness and unless you are a racist it wasn't about you any way. How does the phrase go? Of the people, by the people and for the people shall not perish...That sounds democratic to me. Rich and poor, black, White, Latino...We struggled to make this a fair and great nation for most. Some got shorted, some always get shorted Perfect does not exist on this earth, yet. Should we surrender or go with the flow? I'm going to die someday but till I do I won't bow to Caesar or any of Satan's minions.

Ok Bob, when you go to bed tonight, I want you to picture the creepy cyclops man coming to visit you in your dreams... and he leans over... with the pungent scent of sulfur on his breath... and he lets out a deep, rumbling bellow.... "MWA HA HA HA HA HA HA"


Sleep tight.
