Commentary On the Need for a Second Reconstruction
The Magnitude of
Judgment is a Reflection of the Magnitude of the Sin
The magnitude of and judgment from the Lord is always a reflection of the
magnitude of the sin that produced the judgment. There are only two national
sins of the United States big enough to have taken down the twin towers on
September 11, 2001 or produced the Katrina flood—and these are the un-repented sins of slavery and
abortion. Sins [or works] of the flesh
(Galatians 5:19-21)
will not produce this kind of judgment, particularly when there are a host of interceding
Christians around—which America has in abundance. Only sins of the spirit will
produce this magnitude of judgment: as
are both slavery and abortion—and,
American slavery is in the eyes of God "a Christian
institution" (see
The Voice on the Lord:
The Origins of
Racism;
It Is
Not God That Will Judge the USA;
A
Second Reconstruction Is Now In Order].
As a doorway to the
judgment of God, abortion claims 500 lives each day in the United States, 25% of
which are black. It is amazing that a judgment from the Lord for killing our unborn children
has not yet come upon America, but it would appear that since the doorway to
this carnage was opened in the courtroom of the United States Supreme Court,
that God will allow its fix to now come in this same courtroom: given the recent
appointees to the Supreme Court by President Bush. Otherwise, the judgment(s) of God will most surely come upon
this a
[Christian] nation that annually kills
1.5 million of its unborn children.
The Judgment-Written of James 5:1-8 Is a Sure Word of
Prophesy
Back to the issue
of slavery. Peter said that, “We have also a more sure word of prophecy: whereunto ye do well that ye take heed”…referring to the written
Word of God
(2 Peter 1:19). The written Word of God is even more reliable than the vision
that Peter had when he saw Jesus, Moses and Elijah (Elias) on the
Mount of Transfiguration in the Gospels (Matthew 17:2; Mark 9:2; and Luke
9:29). The written Word of God is thus the highest form of prophetic
revelation. It is the standard by which all prophetic “revelation” must be judged.
The question must constantly be asked: "Can
you show me 'that' in the Word; or what does the Bible have to say about 'this'
or 'that'"?
Our primary
judgment should not be on the "prophet" or
"messenger" with a word from the Lord; but we should focus our
judgment on the actual utterance spoken by the prophet or messenger that claims to have a
word from God—as God in His sovereignty is not required to speak His Word to
a people or nation through one's favorite man or woman
of God. In other words, we must judge the word given by the Word
written—which, of course, is the Bible itself.
(In 1 Kings 17:1 Elijah the Tishbite—with
no credentials whatsoever and not a member of anybody's group—steps
onto the pages of Scripture and in the face of King Ahab with a very
potent and very accurate word from the Lord..."As the LORD God of
Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years,
but according to my word." We know from James 5:17 that according to the
word of God spoken by the mouth of Elijah that it rained not for 3 ½ years.)
My first notice of
Isaiah 30:25, “…in the day of the great
slaughter, when the towers fell”…came on September 12, 2001 (the
day after the 911 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center) while watching
every conceivable view of the twin
towers actually falling. The TV news commentators were reporting
that this verse of Scripture was being quoted with glee by Islamic
fundamentalists around the world as a Bible-judgment from God on the United States.
Next, by subjecting these
two passages of Scriptures to the law of first reference—which says that
the first reference in the Bible to a Bible subject (or to an original language word in either
Testament) controls its usage throughout the rest of the Bible—elementary Bible
interpretation 101 then immediately connects Isaiah 30:25 with James 5:5 as the only two definitive references in the entire Bible to a “day of
slaughter.” (See25
Rules for Understanding Bible Prophecy#11.)
If, then, one but
reads James 5:1-8 and applies this text exclusively to the United States and
to
its history, there is revealed immediately directly off of the pages of Scripture—without need of
further
commentary or theologian—a judgment from God on the last days’
wealth of some rich guys who didn’t pay their laborers for reaping down their
fields, and whom they killed at will!
From the Biblical
text we can readily see that money is crying
out to God [that is, the withheld wages from the past that are still in the
hands of the oppressors and their descendents, and those with whom they have done business over
hundreds of years, is crying out to God for vengeance and a recompense]. The text
further reveals that...the laborers [and their descendants] who reaped down the fields
whose wages (hire) were kept back by fraud who were killed at will
are also crying out to God.
And, this duel cry for
vengeance has been heard by the Lord (James 5:7-8), in the same way that the voice of Abel’s blood still cries out to
God from the ground (Genesis 4:10; Hebrews 12:24); and was at least partially
judged in the fall of Jerusalem in A.D. 70 (c/p. Matthew 23:35 and Luke
11:50-51).
What American
Christians—much less all
Americans—do not understand is that these cries and prayers
to God of slaves and their descendants during their times of suffering are
still in God’s face, and must be
answered by Him before the second coming of Jesus (Luke 18:17-18; Rev. 5:8; Rev. 6:10
and Rev.
8:1). The Lord of Sabaoth
[lit., the God of Armies or Capitan of the Hosts] has heard the cries of both the money and the laborers and has come to judge.
Proverbs 11:31 confirms this,..."Behold,
the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth: much more the wicked and the
sinner" One has to have help to
misunderstand this passage of Scripture.
Most Christians
around the world [including me] use James 5:7-8 as a soul-winning/salvation
passage of
Scripture, “Be patient, therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord…for
the precious fruit of the earth…until he receive the early and latter rain…for
the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.” However, when this passage is put back into its context—it speaks of judgment
and not
soul winning.
There is, therefore, no national spiritual sin
concerning the United States left but slavery that is big
enough for long enough in a place important enough for God to have recorded
both the sin and its judgment in His Word—and in
the New Covenant of His Word—two thousand years before it came to
pass. James 5:1-8 is
a “last days” passage of Scripture. Its application is for the "last days".
The Slavery of God's People Destroyed the Wealth of Egypt
In the Book of
Exodus (Chapters 2 through 15) God’s judgment(s) of the richest nation on the
earth, Egypt, for the enslavement of His people is revealed. Ten plagues of judgment destroyed the oasis of Egypt before Pharaoh got the message,
and was willing to
obey the voice of the Lord spoken by the prophet, Moses, to set God’s people
free. In Exodus 12:36, God also judged the money of Egypt. The
initial damage estimates from the Hurricane Katrina were 100 billion dollars: only 25% of
which is expected to be covered by insurance. Since Katrina, Greensburg,
Kansas has been literally wiped off the map by a tornado;
and at present billions of dollars are being lost in the United
States through home foreclosures. James 5 is a judgment on the wealth of the
U.S., but not its people. It is the
magnitude of Katrina, Greensburg, the foreclosure crisis, the trillion dollars
in Wall Street bailouts, insurance company bailouts, and to come the U.S. auto
industry—not to
mention the cost
of the war in Afghanistan and Iraq (which exceeds $200,000,000 each
day, and $10 billion each month)—that make it obvious that they are directly connected with
the continuing
financial
judgments of James 5. [Rich men, truly, have been..."weeping and howling
for the miseries" that have come upon them. The corporate CEO of Wall Street
investment firm Lehman Bros. on September 1, 2008 owned personal shares in the
company in the range of 700 million dollars. Before the end of the month Lehman
Bros. had failed, and the value of his stock was zero...Bible prophecy coming to
pass before our very eyes.]
On the way out of
Egypt and back to the land that God had promised as a covenant to Abraham, Isaac
and Jacob, God paid the Israelites for 400 years of slave labor.
In the
US
post-Civil War Reconstruction—which lasted only five years—American
blacks got nothing (not even a thank you); and, as God spoke in an utterance to
me A Second Reconstruction Is
Now In Order, “…no land, no money, no guns, and no butter.”
Nothing!
In the eyes of God,
the back wages of which James 5 makes reference to have been compounding at the
maximum heavenly rate of interest for the last 140 years. In addition,
in the language of a lawyer: punitive damages are owed to the descendants of America’s slaves
for the willful, wanton, and malicious use of terror and terrorism—as the very
institution of slavery, itself, was held together by the
systematic and applied
use of terror to control the subjection and forced labor of populations that
often outnumbered plantation whites by ratios of 10:1, or greater.
The United States
also went much far greater than any other nation in the New World in its using
the Bible to justify this enslavement and terrorism, in order to “save the
heathen souls...the black African race cursed by Noah.” Only a Christian that knows the Bible would be concerned as to
the salvation of a soul that is introduced to Jesus during his or her
enslavement, or whether
Christian baptism brought with it freedom from slavery. This was the constant
question raised in every land to which European Christians carried their
race-based economic slavery into North and South America, and the West Indies.
American
slave-masters also went so far as to raise up a generation of plantation
preachers—with their more distinguished looking hand-me-downs—to preach a
gospel of obedience to the master in order to minimize the greatly feared
freedom strikes of slaves [also known as slave revolts]; and to keep these
slaves looking toward the sweet-by-and-by for their rewards, rather than to the
nasty-here-and-now for their deliverance.
For God not to
judge America’s un-repented national sin slavery before the return of Jesus
makes Him a respecter of persons*,
asHe cannot pay the Israelites for their
slavery and fail to pay African American people for theirs and remain God…because His Word
would fail! God is in a box; and so is America.
America is Sitting on a Time Bomb with a Short
Fuse
What the Hurricane
Katrina uncovered and laid bare for the nation to see in that New Orleans
convention center were the descendants of "gang slaves"—men and women who bore
the burden in the heat of the day who are now disbursed throughout the
entire United States—who in the slave fields were awakened at 3:00 A.M. [working during harvest time
worked until midnight]; and for a lifetime were told what to do, when to do, where to do, how to do it 24/7; and whipped with a lash (or worse) if it was not
being done fast enough or for any other whimsical reason—terrorized and broke
from the cradle to the grave—on both sides of the Civil War.
America is sitting
on a time bomb with a short fuse. Black people are angry—those who show it,
and those who don’t. If Katrina had been anything but a flood which restricted
mobility, there would have been rioting in the streets of New Orleans;
and that rioting would have triggered similar Watts-type rioting [the Los
Angeles riots of 1965] all across America. Jesus told the religious leaders of
his day that they could discern the face of the sky, but could not discern the
signs of the times (Matthew 16:3). Katrina should have been a wake-up call to this nation. The
election of Barack Obama as President of the United States, although
significant, does not in and of itself address the curse of James 5 on a
Christian nation.
It is Way Past Time for a National Apology for
Slavery
What must America
do—admit it, and quit it! It is way past time
for a national apology for slavery; and for a Godly repentance for
the terror that kept the institution of slavery in place before the Civil War,
and for the 100 years of lynching that kept blacks in their “place,” and took
away their franchise in the South, after the Civil War. [This terror and the
never-prosecuted lynchings did not actually cease until the turbulence of the
1960’s.]
The judgment of
James 5:1-8 is all about money...“So the curse causeless shall not
come,” (Proverbs 26:2)). It is addressed to the
miserable rich who are weeping and howling because their money is becoming
corrupted, cankered and rusted (corroded)…all because they did not pay their
laborers, and killed them [the just] at will.
For God’s
people—and the United States is a nation established by God—slavery itself is a
curse (Exodus 21:16; 22:21-24; and Revelation 13:10); and false balances, unjust
measures, and condemning the just are all abominations to God (Proverbs 11:1; 20:10 and 23).
The Covenant that
God actually has with the United States is the
Mayflower Compact, and
not
the Constitution—whichin at least 10 places gives explicit recognition to the
institution slavery: and thus to the blood and terror which held it in place.
Neither does God recognize the Declaration of Independence as a covenant with
Him, as its language that, “…all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by
their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life,
Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness…” was never intended to apply to
African slaves either by Thomas
Jefferson who penned most of the document [although not this particular section
which is not in his handwriting] or by the other founding fathers who signed
the Declaration...a third of whom owned slaves.
What the founding
fathers did and did not intend in their creation of the foundation documents of
the United States, is a matter that has already been judged by the United States
Supreme Court in Dred Scottvs. Sandford
60 US 393 (1857), which can be easily pulled off of the Internet for those
wishing to read the entire opinion. This case was
decided by a clear majority of the Court in a 7/2 decision. The Honorable Chief
Justice Roger B. Taney, in writing for the Court, sets forth by a host of
credible evidence and argument to support the fact that the founding fathers
intentionally made it impossible for even an emancipated African slave to ever
become a citizen of the United States; and, as the case holds, because Mr. Scott
was not a citizen of the United States (and could never become one), he had no standing to sue in the
courts of the United States, for anything, much less his freedom. Case
dismissed!
Mr. Justice Taney has been much criticized and maligned in
history for his judicial analysis of the founding fathers’ intentions, because
he was a former save owner (although he actually freed his own slaves before
taking the bench). But, I have yet to read any credible arguments put forth to
his analysis of the founder’s intentions, from the two dissenting
opinions on the Court, or from anyone else for that matter. As a matter of
historical law and fact, Scottvs. Sandford
was correctly decided.
Every American that loves this nation should read the Dred Scott
Decision, to gain an understanding as to why it
took the Civil War, the loss of 625,000 lives (100,000 more in the North than in
the South), and passage of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution to
abolished slavery. But, the mere passage of the 13th Amendment was
insufficient to overturn the Dred Scott
Decision; and 14th Amendment,
whose opening sentence reads..."All persons born or naturalized in the United
States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United
States and of the State wherein they reside"...was required, not only to
overrule Scottvs. Sandford, but
to fix the no pathway to citizenship for African slaves that the founding fathers intentionally drafted
into the
Constitution.
To Get God’s Judgment off of our Money, the Bill
for Slavery has to be Paid
There is also a
gargantuan bill that has to be paid in order to get God off of America’s case,
and to prevent the curse of James 5 from further eroding the vast equity of the
United States until we become a second-rate nation in the family of nations: as
God said in His Prophetic Utterance to me, A
Second Reconstruction Is Now In Order. Whites, even
those of good will [which is most...at least before it comes to money] believed
until recently that it is impossible for the United
States to ever go broke. Most of us in the evangelical church have gone even further
by our belief that the United States cannot go broke because God has a Covenant
with it, and becaue we are the primary financiers of the Gospel that’s being preached
around the world. This is a big time manifestation of the spirit of pride:
as the Mayflower Covenant will not protect the United States any longer from
this national un-repented spiritual Christian sin of slavery, and the "burning
bushes" that God has been sending for this nation to repent.
God said in the
above Prophetic Utterance that, “Except ye repent,” that He would put out
the United State’s lamp of radiance among the nations of the world: like he did
for the Church at Ephesus for its lack of repentance. As Church leaders and
others evaluate whether or not God has actually spoke this Word to and through me,
consider that hundreds of pastors from New Orleans were put
out of their jobs, as well as their staff’s jobs, which numbered into the
thousands. ”Pride goeth before
destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall”
(Proverbs 16:18). We are dealing here with a curse!
The first and
almost universal response of American whites to the issue of slavery when it is
mentioned is, “Well Africans sold slaves,”—which is like responding to one’s
Johnny or Jane, that it is OK for them to steal fruit from the corner grocery
store because all the other kids in the neighborhood are doing it. Ridiculous! Please consider
what the world-renowned theologian, John Wesley, had to say on: the Christian
institution of slavery, the details of its practice: the Africa that white
Christians found when they first arrived; and just how it came about that
Africans sold slaves [see
John Wesley: Thoughts Upon Slavery,
published in 1774; see also John Wesley's Last
Letter (to William Wilberforce, a member of
the English Parliament saved under Wesley’s ministry].
Why no Land for Freed Slaves In a
Half-empty Nation?
During the
post-Civil War
Reconstruction which began in 1865, political decisions were made by the
Republicans who ran the Civil War and the 5-year Reconstruction (except for
Andrew Johnson from Tennessee: the only Southern Democrat that did not join the
Confederacy, and who became President upon the death of Abraham Lincoln):
nAt
the insistence of President Lincoln, the Republican Congress refused to break-up the land-based Southern aristocracy
that owned the huge slave-labor plantations; and
nTo keep blacks, although now “free,” in the
South and without land and working for wages that would perpetuate a lifetime of
poverty: because, after all, somebody had to cultivate and harvest the cotton and
tobacco. So, blacks moved from slaves to sharecroppers! [For an example of a
sharecrop contract and some amazing additional information, see
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/reconstruction/sharecrop/ps_dawson.html, last visited
02/16/2008.]
The crowing piece
of domestic legislation of Abraham Lincoln’s first term of office as President
(while the Civil War was raging) was The Homestead Act of 1862.
Under its provisions, any free born or naturalized citizen and head of household
could become the owner of 160 acres of land after only 5 years, by living on it
and making “improvements” to it. The provisions of this act
were only available to a white man or woman, because Indians under the
Constitution were considered to be members of foreign nations; and according to
the Dred Scott Decision blacks could not become citizens, either by way of
emancipation or naturalization (because they were not citizens of a foreign
nation because they were carried here as slaves). However, immediately upon
ratification of the 13th
and 14th Amendments, discussed above, the Homestead Act was available
to the emancipated slaves.
However, at the
close of the Civil War, with the Homestead Act was in place and America
was largely empty west of the Mississippi River, four million newly emancipated
slaves—called freedman—had earned the right to, were entitled to, and could have
easily become major equity land-holders in America. There was, however, general
agreement in Washington, D. C. that the territories out West were for poor
whites from the industrial North, and for immigrants (also white) from Europe.
[It took the Hurricane Katrina to lay bare before the entire world the fruit of
those decisions 140 years later, bythis continuing catastrophic judgment
on the wealth of the United States that is rooted in slavery.]
September 11th was also an Attack on
the Wealth of America
September 11, 2001
was also a catastrophic judgments attacking the wealth of the United
States. Terror was merely the vehicle through which the curse of James 5 was
manifested—the product of the Biblical law of sowing and reaping (Galatians 6:7;
Genesis 1:11-12). Who would argue that the United States is the financial
capital of the world; or that New York City is the financial capital of the
nation; or that those twin towers more than any other American icon symbolized
America’s wealth. When the "chickens" of the terror of slavery finally came home
to roost, it was our own terror that attacked these icons of the nation’s wealth
and brought the twin towers down.
New York City’s Sordid Past
New York City, like
New Orleans, was also a major portal for the entrance of slaves into the
country. This will come as a shock to the readers, as it also was to me, but
New York City was also the site of the massacre of the largest number of freedom
seeking slaves in United States history. Quoting from two incidents described
by the eminently respected historian, John Hope Franklin, in his book From
Slavery To Freedom:
“The
ungovernable temper of New York’s Negroes flared up into a fully organized
insurrection in the spring of 1712. About twenty-three slaves armed with guns,
knives, and hatchets, met in an orchard near the center of the town. At the
appointed time one of them set fire to an outhouse of his master. As whites
hurried to the burning building the Negroes shot them, killing nine and wounding
five or six…When the Negroes were captured, six had committed suicide. One man
shot his wife first and then himself, while the other had cut their own
throats. Twenty-one were executed: some, including a woman, were hanged;
one was suspended in chains alive without food or drink until he was dead; some
were burned, one of whom was to be consumed by a slow fire for eight or ten
hours; one was broken on the wheel, his head and quarters being place at the
Queen’s disposal.” (emphasis added)
“In 1741 the hysteria resulting from the fear
of a slave uprising plunged the city of New York into the greatest orgy of
Negro persecutions that appeared anywhere during the colonial period.” [At
this time one-fifth of Manhattan’s population consisted of black slaves.] “On the night of February 28, 1741…a series of fires broke out…They
became so numerous…that the citizens knew that they were not accidental. Panic
gripped the town in a flash. Then it happened: the emergence of the rumor that
Negroes and poor whites were conspiring to destroy law and order in the city and
seize control.
“The city
council offered generous rewards for information leading to the arrest of the
conspirators…Mary Burton, an indentured servant…said that three Negroes…had
evolved a plan to burn the town, kill all the white people, and establish a
monarchy…This surpassed the wildest imaginations of the whites…An impartial
trial was impossible, and contradictions as well as falsifications are obvious
in the ‘confessions’ and other testimony that were presented. In the minds of
New Yorkers the conspiracy of a great Negro insurrection had taken shape, and
vengeance must be swift and complete.
“In the
trials 154 Negroes and 25 whites were prosecuted. Convictions wee secured in
the case of 101 Negroes, of whom eighteen were hanged, thirteen burned alive and
seventy banished. Four white people, two of whom were women, were also hanged.
‘At the rate of two every week, one hanged and one burned alive, the victims
were executed amid prayers, imprecations and shrieks of agony.’” (emphasis
added) [From Slavery To Freedom, John Hope Franklin, Second Edition, pp.
91-93, Alfred A Knoff, Inc., 1956]
An Excerpt From New York’s First Constitution of
1683
Paragraph #27. [Religious
toleration]
THAT No
person or persons which profess faith in God by Jesus Christ Shall at any
time be any ways molested punished disquieted or call in Question for any
Difference in opinion or Matter of Religious Concernment…[see
New York's First Constitution].
The Curse of James 5 Will Return to Finish its
Work on New York City
Oral Roberts, the
outstanding contemporary man of God and founder of Oral Roberts University in
Tulsa, was given a vision of a manifestation of some sort that will set up over
New York City and the Eastern part of the United States—smoke, vapor, blood accompanied with a horrific sound (c/p.
Acts 2:19)—and then will be disbursed across the United States and throughout
the earth. [The “Wake-up Call” can be purchased in its entirety, two weeks of
television broadcasts, from the Kenneth Copeland Ministries, www.kcm.org.] The Lord has already told me
that this coming manifestation from outer space when it sets up over New York
City is the curse of James 5 coming back to take out the city, but whose power
is going to be stayed for a season to give New York City and the nation additional time to repent.
[In this regard, the State of New York has in 2008 also produced an African
American as its governor: the Honorable David A. Patterson...making repentance
for New York's sordid past perhaps a little more easier.]
As I said way back
in the beginning of this message, I am anchored in the Word of God. No matter
whatever the subject may be, my frame-of-reference is the Bible. Can I find it
in the Word; or what does the Word have to say about this or that? The only
thing that I have been able to find in the Bible that comes to the earth from
outer space, other than Jesus and the angels (including Satan and his angels),
is the curse of Zechariah 5:3, which Isaiah 24 says devourers the
whole earth.
Because people do
not know, God apparently will stay judgment over New York to give the City,
State, and the Nation a
final opportunity to repent and make restitution for slavery. The vision
was given to Dr. Roberts as a “wake-up call” concerning the second coming of
Jesus; and it is, because America’s response to both the judgment written and
the judgment stayed will determine the United States’ place in the end time
events that are yet to precede the second coming of Jesus. [See: Coming Events In Bible Prophecy.]
A Man of God in the White House Trained in Terror
God has raised up
and set in the White House a man of God who has been trained in terrorism and in
the mindset of terrorists. He has also been trained in the liberation and
reconstruction of the people of two nations—Afghanistan and Iraq—who were caught
in the grips of terrorism and terrorists. I am persuaded that this man of God,
George W. Bush, has now been commissioned by the Lord himself to lead the United
States into A Second
Reconstruction of major portions of the
South for the deserving victims of Katrina of every race.
At the same time,
the President is called by God to lead the nation in fixing of all that was
lacking in the first Reconstruction of 1865, where 4 million Americans were
“freed,” but at the same time “fired” from their full employment status as
slaves. They were given no land, no money, and now had to pay rent on the same
shack they lived in a slave for “free”. Four hundred thousand Blacks were
turned out of school when the Freedman’s Bureau was abolished after only a
5-year existence. (In fact, the public education system that is taken for
granted across the United States had its origin in the Freedman’s Bureau.)
Although Blacks
were kept in the South, they were given no national liberation army to protect
their franchise, or to protect them from the post-Civil Wars terror of the Ku
Klux Klan and its friends. This southern liberation army would have had to
remain and be supported by the President and the Congress until the hearts of
Southerners were changed—likely a generation or more—and like Iraq, troops
would have had to remain until the black male could be trained to lead, govern
and protect their families, with a viable economic plan for physical
self-determination that would guarantee the freedmen’s becoming a financial
member of the American dream.
A Final Word
From the Lord to President George
W. Bush
This is a set-up, Mr.
President. In the language of the Church you have been called, appointed,
anointed, and trained by God to lead the United States into A Second Reconstruction—even
at this late date—to fix both for America and for the descendants of
the African Americans who were cut-off from the Reconstruction of 1865. In so
doing God will cause history to remember the beginning and end of your
presidency, and not the middle years. You know more about every facet of this
kind of national recovery of large populations ravaged by persecution, war (and
much worse) than any president in United States’ history; and you can see in an
instant all that should have been done and was not for 4 million newly
emancipated American citizens.
Mr.
President. What you have unsuccessfully been dealing with since 1991 is a
curse: the curse of
James
5:1-8. Your answer and the answer of the Nation for the "why" of September 11th
was terrorism
and terrorists. God's answer to the "why" of September 11th
is the
sowing and reaping from the national unrepentant sin of slavery. And then
came Katrina. Your answer and the answer of the Nation for Katrina was an "act of God".
God's answer for Katrina is the sowing and reaping from slavery (God doesn't act that
way). And of late have come upon us the foreclosures, market crashes, and bank failures.
Your answer and the answer of the Nation for our economy in crisis—subprime mortgages.
God's answer to our national economic crisis is still the sowing and reaping
of this Nation from
slavery: the curse of
James
5:1-8—the terrorism of a Christian nation.
[For a closer look at the actual "why" of all the foreclosures, please consider: Why No Land for Freed Slaves In a
Half-Empty Nation?.]
Because James
5:1-8is
a judgment written which God can
never change, because He never changes...I am the Lord, I change not (Mal.
3:6). So then, to become totally free from the recurring effects of
this revolvingcurse, the United States must meet the requirements of the text of
James 5:4
in
the same way that Egypt had to do
as pertaining to the children of
Israel—a recompense at fair market value
(see:Gen. 15:13-16; and Exo. 12:35-36).
This is so, for as you also know...God is no respecter of persons...or
nations. For 40 million African American survivors of the middle passage and
beyond, the recompense required by God for the national sins of a Christian nation* will measure
into the multiplied trillions of dollars. I am not talking
about "reparations", but abouta Second
Reconstruction—to fix the woeful failures of the first
Reconstruction. [Please see: God's
Call for a Second Reconstruction;
and It Is
Not God That Will Judge the USA.]
[* In the eyes of God the United States is a
"Christian nation"because of the Covenant that
God has with it. We are a nation formed for the express purpose of promoting the
"Advancement of the Christian Faith" (see: the
Mayflower Compact).]
Republicans make their boast that
the Republican Party was formed in 1856 to oppose slavery, and that its first
President was Abraham Lincoln. The Republican Party was actually formed not to
oppose slavery as an institution, but to oppose its expansion into the
territories out West of which all were in agreement that these lands were for
"poor whites". As such, Mr. Lincoln had no commitment for African Americans to
become an integral part of the fabric of life in America..."It's one thing to
be opposed to the continuance of slavery; its another thing to have a county
full of ex-slaves"...believing until his death that colonization of freed
slaves was the only permanent solution for America. Thus when he floated the
Emancipation Proclamation, it freed no slaves: those under the jurisdiction of
the United States or those in the Confederacy. Its sole purpose was to give the
Confederacy a final opportunity to return to the Union (at a time when the North
was losing the Civil War badly).
My historical points are
summarized in this: first, Republicans ran both the
Civil War and the five years of African American Reconstruction. Second,
neither Abraham Lincoln nor his successor, Andrew Johnson [that good Christian
Democrat from Tennessee, who was so out of touch with the Radical Republican-led
Congress that he came within one vote of being impeached], had any intention of
making the Constitution work for the freedmen. Further, between the presidencies
of Abraham Lincoln and Woodrow Wilson, the Democrats had only two terms in the
White House; and it has been Republican-appointed Supreme Court judges from
Reconstruction until today that have been eroding by their judicial legislation
the Civil Rights Act of 1866 that the Radical Republican-led Congresses passed
on three separate occasions; the Ku Klutz Clan Civil Rights Act of 1871; and
declared as unconstitutional the Civil Rights Act of 1875: which was re-passed
almost verbatim in the Civil Rights Act of 1965. [The Republican reign over the
White House during this period could not even pass an anti-lynching law to stop
the reign of terror...more seeds of terrorism, sir. And, the Republican Party
has been almost single-handed in its dismantling of federal and state
affirmative action programs with the idiological judicial rhetoric of Republican
court appointees.]
I am not "Republican-bashing" for
no purpose: while the Grand Old Party is recovering from the God-orchestrated
electoral college landslide of a freshman senator, but am offering the the
GOP a wake-up call from the Lord to look at itself and its dogma [too
many Republicans in one place take upon themselves a demonic presence]; and to
look at the much acclaimed "Republican base"—which is the
old Confederacy...and a direct result of the "Republican strategy" which
abandoned African Americans during the Great Depression. One only has to look at
the size and demographics of the Obama-crowd as compared with the McCain-crowd
on election night to find out where God was and where He was not in this past
election. [That may hurt; but it is nevertheless true.]
So, Mr.
President, with all humility, since the GOP is not listening to a thing you have
to say, why don't you [as we say]..."come over on the black side"—and we will
receive you. For the time that you
have left in office, stop
being a Republican and rise to the level of a Statesman! For thus saith
the Lord:
"1.
Lead the Nation into a period of national repentance
for slavery[it means more coming from a Republican].
2. Use your
powers of executive orders to fix everything that you can find that is
fixable by executive order: for the short end of the stick that African
Americans have received from this country since Reconstruction—including
Affirmative Action, which Republicans don't have any problem with when it
comes to Wall Street, bank failures, the auto industry, AIG, and on and on,
but have problems with when applied to people if they're black [the
Freedman's Bureau was an Affirmative Action program which Republicans were
only willing to pay for for five years...4 million freedmen...5
years...ridiculous!]; and
3. Start Mr.
Paulson and Mr. Bernacke toward the "fix" of a
Second Reconstruction with the money they have left of the 700
billion in bail-out funds, and God will fix the economy for you and for
America. [Every foreclosed house that the Government can get its hands on is
merely the current market value for one African American family from
the Radical Republican promise of "40 acres and a mule" that African
Americans never received under the
Homestead Act of 1862 or any other act of Congress; see also Why No Land for
Freed Slaves In a Half-Empty Nation?]
4. Leave to
Mr. Obama the preaching of the much that the African American community must
do and has not done to better its own condition [this they need to hear, but
African Americans will not receive this message from you: they will hear it
from Barack Obama]."
A Prophetic Word From God To President Barack Obama
Mr. President. You, sir, are called to the kingdom for such a time as
this...both for your brilliance, yet not for your brilliance; both for your
vision of the American potential, yet not for your vision; and both because you
are the African American that God has chosen to fulfill the dream one generation
later of another of His African American sons, Martin Luther King, Jr. ... a
matter almost totally missed by most of God's people in this Nation. Further,
you are the man chosen by God to lead this Nation partially because the "African"
in your "American" has no roots in slavery—as you are the offspring of a love
affair between a Kenyan and a Kansan. Amazing!
Mr.
President. What President Bush dealt with for most of eight
years is a curse: the curse of
James
5:1-8. He could not fix it because he did not know what you now
know, if you are willing to receive this message. The answer of President Bush
and the Nation for the "why" of September 11th
was terrorism
and terrorists. God's answer to the "why" of September 11th
is the
sowing and reaping from the national unrepentant sin of slavery. And then
came Katrina. The President and the Nation's answer for Katrina was an "act of God".
God's answer for Katrina is the sowing and reaping from slavery (God doesn't act that
way). And of late have come upon us the foreclosures, market crashes, and bank failures. The
President and the Nation's answer for our economy in crisis—subprime mortgages.
God's answer to our national economic crisis is still the sowing and reaping from
slavery: the curse of
James
5:1-8—
the terrorism of a Christian nation. [For a closer look at the actual "why" of
all the foreclosures, please consider: Why No
Land for Freed Slaves In a Half-Empty Nation?.]
Mr.
President. Neither your brilliance nor the brilliance of the dream team of
experts that you have assembled can fix a curse. I refer you and the
Nation to the 28th
Chapter of the Book of Deuteronomy
for an understanding of how both the BLESSING and the CURSE work.
Neither an individual nor a nation can outrun either. Why? Because both the
BLESSING and the CURSE have spiritual roots, and neither can
be "figured out", totally understood, or managed by natural means.
Mr.
President. I expect that because you are an African American you may not
wish to begin your presidency by addressing issues that involve slavery. But,
sir, your dream team cannot "orchestrate" a curse, because only God knows
when and how it will break out next. Because James
5:1-8 is a curseagainst the
wealth of this Nation (as U.S. slavery existed for the sole purpose of
creating wealth in this Nation), the spiritual forces of evil will see to it that the coming
repetitive future outbreaks of thiscurse during the course of your
presidency, as well as the enormous economic costs that will be required to
supply the "fixes" associated with each outbreak [likely a trillion or
more per occurrence], will be translated into the
not yet silent..."not ready to rule",,, and "unfit to govern". You will not
be given the eight years that George Bush was given...again, because you are
an African American. You were overwhelmingly elected by our people because
the only issue in this country that totally transcends race is money; and
Americans don't care who fixes their money. But, "mess-up" with the money—even
if the "mess" is totally beyond your control—and the American people (as well as
the world) will do a flip-flop on you in a "New York minute"—again, because you
are an African American. This is unfortunate; but there is hope.
Be encouraged,
however, for I too have come to the kingdom for such a time as this—to help you
help us. As the
Scripture saith: Christ hath
redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is
written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of
Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ...(Gal. 3:13-14). We
as a nation can walk free from the curse of James
5:1-8by
acknowledging the national sin of slavery, and then repenting of it before God.
But, because James
5:1-8is
a judgment written which God can
never change because He never changes, to become totally free from the recurring effects of its revolvingcurse, the United States must meet the requirements of
James 5:4
in
the same way that Egypt had to
as pertaining to the children of
Israel—a recompense at fair market value
(see:Gen. 15:13-16; and Exo. 12:35-36);
for as you know: God is no respecter of persons or nations. For 40,000,000
African American survivors of the middle passage, the recompense required by God for the national sins of a Christian nation* will measure
into the multiplied trillions of dollars. I am not talking
about "reparations", but about a Second
Reconstruction—to fix the woeful failures of the first
Reconstruction. [Please see: God's
Call for a Second Reconstruction;
and It Is
Not God That Will Judge the USA.]
And this, Mr. President is
the real reason for your brilliance and the brilliance of the team that you have
assembled. Once you understand from theBible that I know you
love, andaccept your assignment with the knowledge that the
future wealth or poverty the United States in the end times is directly tied to
what we as a nation do about James
5:1-8, then when you go before God to
receive His instructions concerning the details of a
Second Reconstruction, by the time we're finished righting the
wrongs for which Jesus is holding our Nation accountable, the United States
under your leadership will have grown to be four or five larger than it was when
we began—because of the BLESSING of Abraham that will be upon us from
God (Gal. 3:14).
