Most evangelicals are unfamiliar with the origins and foundational beliefs of Black Liberation Theology. That is perhaps why many evangelicals today are becoming sympathetic towards its heretical doctrines.

Black Liberation Theology may be largely unknown to many evangelicals today, but it’s a popular theology inside Black churches in America. Black Liberation Theology developed as a mainstream idea within Black American churches several decades ago. However, most Black Canadians and most Black people around the world are not exposed to it. With the notable exception of South Africa – because of Apartheid history – Black Liberation Theology is a distinctly Black American framework.

Black Liberation Theology has infiltrated all types of Black American churches today, and is perceived as orthodox Christianity within all types of Black churches in America. Millions of Black Americans in Baptist, Methodist, Pentecostal, Episcopalian, Presbyterian and other churches today are subjected to sermons from Black Liberation Theology perspectives every Sunday morning. Approximately 40% of Black American churches identify with Black Liberation Theology.[1] This includes thousands of churches from major Black American denominations like the Church of God in Christ and the African Methodist Episcopal Church.

In fact, most of the biggest proponents of Black Liberation Theology and its predecessor theologies were ordained ministers and theologians from the African Methodist Episcopal Church. This includes a founding member of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Reverdy C. Ranson, major Reconstruction politician Henry McNeal Turner, and the founder of Black Liberation Theology, James Cone.

Black Liberation Theology exists inside Black churches within multi-ethnic denominations too. For instance, social justice activist Al Sharpton embraced Black Liberation Theology as a young member at a United Church of Christ congregation. And Jeremiah Wright was the pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, Illinois for almost 40 years. The church is the largest congregation within its denomination. It holds over 8,000 members. And for 20 years, one of its members was Barack Obama.

Black Liberation Theology gained significant attention in the 2008 American presidential election after clips of Jeremiah Wright’s sermons were released by media outlets. The clips featured Barack Obama’s pastor making conspiracy theories about the American government’s role in the September 11 attacks, the Pearl Harbour attack, the HIV crisis, and more. The widely circulated sermons made the world privy to what many adherents of Black Liberation Theology believe about the American government. In one of the clips, Jeremiah Wright said:

“When it came to treating her citizens of African descent fairly, America failed. She put them in chains, the government put them on slave quarters, put them on auction blocks, put them in cotton field, put them in inferior schools, put them in substandard housing, put them in scientific experiments, put them in the lowest paying jobs, put them outside the equal protection of the law, kept them out of their racist bastions of higher education and locked them into positions of hopelessness and helplessness. The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing “God Bless America”. No, no, no, not God Bless America. God damn America  – that’s in the Bible  – for killing innocent people. God damn America, for treating our citizens as less than human.“[2]

Americans were shocked by Wright’s sermons. They never imagined that many people within Black churches echoed that level of resentment against America. At the time, they didn’t understand that a significant number of Black Americans didn’t want to sing ‘God Bless America’ or honour the American flag. They didn’t think Black Liberation Theology permeated inside Black churches. They didn’t know the next president of the United States at the time was baptized and discipled under that kind of theology.

Barack Obama and his family removed their membership from Trinity United Church of Christ after the clips were released to the media, and Jeremiah Wright retired from pastoring the church soon afterward. The controversy eventually died down. Barack Obama defeated John McCain in the 2008 election and became the 44th person and the 1st Black American to become President of the United States. He maintained his presidency 4 years later when he won the 2012 election over Mitt Romney. And the American public did not experience that kind of hostile rhetoric from Black church leaders again for years – until the Ferguson riots in 2014.

The riots in Ferguson, Missouri were the aftermath of a fatal police shooting of a Black teenager, Michael Brown, by a White police officer, Darren Wilson. A grand jury and the United States Department of Justice ruled in favour of Darren Wilson. They declared that forensic evidence and eyewitness testimonies supported Darren Wilson’s self-defense claim. But the rulings sparked outrage, riots, and demands for social justice. For many Americans, particularly Black Americans, Michael Brown’s fatal shooting was perceived as yet another instance of a racially-motivated murder of a Black teenager. Two years prior to Michael Brown’s shooting, a Black teenager in Florida, Trayvon Martin, was shot and killed after an altercation with a member of a community watch, George Zimmerman. A jury subsequently acquitted Zimmerman of second-degree murder and manslaughter in 2013.

Therefore, tensions from the Trayvon Martin case carried over to the Michael Brown shooting the following year in 2014. Activists, politicians, and media personalities alike suggested that Michael Brown was a victim of America’s systemic racism against Black Americans. Michael Brown’s fatal shooting and the Ferguson riots became arguably the biggest story that year. Time Magazine named the Ferguson protestors runners-up for the magazine’s Person of the Year in 2014.[3] The riots propelled Black Lives Matter into a powerful social justice group. They became the most powerful Black American social justice group since the Black Panthers in the 1960s and 1970s.

The Ferguson riots became the first of many social justice riots across America following fatal shootings of Black Americans by police officers. The riots pushed America’s supposed systemic racism against Black Americans into a major political story. The riots made race relations a major topic in the 2016 American presidential election. And consequently, social justice become the biggest topic in evangelical circles today.

STATEMENT ON SOCIAL JUSTICE AND THE GOSPEL

Last September, John MacArthur, Voddie Baucham, and other evangelical leaders released The Statement on Social Justice and the Gospel. The statement presented biblical objections to social justice positions on culture, sexuality, gender, ethnicity and race. Concerning ethnicity and racism, the document states:

“WE DENY that Christians should segregate themselves into racial groups or regard racial identity above, or even equal to, their identity in Christ. We deny that any divisions between people groups (from an unstated attitude of superiority to an overt spirit of resentment) have any legitimate place in the fellowship of the redeemed. We reject any teaching that encourages racial groups to view themselves as privileged oppressors or entitled victims of oppression. While we are to weep with those who weep, we deny that a person’s feelings of offense or oppression necessarily prove that someone else is guilty of sinful behaviors, oppression, or prejudice. And we emphatically deny that lectures on social issues (or activism aimed at reshaping the wider culture) are as vital to the life and health of the church as the preaching of the gospel and the exposition of Scripture. Historically, such things tend to become distractions that inevitably lead to departures from the gospel.“[4]

The Statement received over 10,000 signatures and became a valuable resource for Christians in the wake of growing support for social justice from prominent evangelicals. In fact, The Statement on Social Justice and the Gospel was an answer to the social justice movement within evangelical organizations like The Gospel Coalition and the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission.

Months prior to the release of the statement, the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission and The Gospel Coalition held a social justice conference named the MLK50 conference – in honour of the fiftieth anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination. That event was followed by the Together for the Gospel conference days afterward, and like the MLK50 conference, it featured an emphasis on social justice.

The conferences suggested that America was systemically racist against Black Americans. Many of the evangelical leaders from the conferences claimed that many White Christians were guilty of ignoring justice for Black Americans. They didn’t list evidence to support their claims. They couldn’t prove that the current American government is systemically racist. They didn’t refer to any racist policies to validate their words. Nevertheless, they charged many White American Christians with apathy or support for racism, and they commanded them to repent.

One of the speakers at the Together for the Gospel conference, David Platt, said: “May it be said of us that we eagerly anticipated future salvation while acknowledging present sin. May it not be said of us that we indulged in worship while ignoring justice, and may it not be said of us that we carried on religion while we refused to repent.” [5]

The conferences elicited strong, polarizing reactions from evangelicals. Some Christians were delighted over the conferences’ support for social justice. Other Christians, however, were deeply disappointed over prominent evangelicals adopting social justice as a gospel issue. This culminated into the Statement on Social Justice and the Gospel months later.

But in between these events, James Cone – the founder of Black Liberation Theology – died. Many Christians who support social justice offered eulogies on social media expressing their admiration for James Cone. The most candid admiration for James Cone’s theology, however, came from the president of The Witness: A Black Christian Collective, Jemar Tisby. He dedicated an entire article, without restraint, to commend James Cone’s theology. In the article, he said:

 “A father of black liberation theology, Cone helped pioneer a field that dealt with the racism at the core of much of American Christianity…. He shows that black people could understand Christ’s suffering by recalling their own sorrow related to the lynching tree. At the same time, the cross provided comfort because black people could know for certain that in His life and death, Christ identified with the oppressed.” [6]

Then in his book, The Color of Compromise, from earlier this year, Jemar Tisby wrote:

“James Cone penned The Cross and the Lynching Tree as a theological reflection on racial terrorism. ‘Both Jesus and blacks were strange fruit’, he wrote. ‘Theologically speaking, Jesus was the first lynchee,’ who foreshadowed all the lynched black bodies on American soil.’ Cone goes on to explain, ‘The cross helped me to deal with the brutal legacy of the lynching tree, and the lynching tree helped me understand the tragic meaning of the cross.’”[7]

Jemar Tisby is part of a long line of professing Christians today who have embraced a form of Black Liberation Theology in the wake of Black Lives Matter and the social justice movement. This development actually follows a historical trend. Many social justice leaders within evangelicalism today are much like James Cone and his theological predecessors who abandoned biblical theology to adopt worldly philosophies from liberal theologians and activists from their time as a means to fight injustice.

ABOLITION AND LIBERALISM

The basis for Black Liberation Theology can be traced back to liberal theology within the abolitionist movement. Many abolitionist leaders such as William Lloyd Garrison and Theodore Parker abandoned biblical theology because one of biggest obstacles for abolitionism at the time was that many Christians used the Bible to defend slavery. In his book, The Civil War as a Theological Crisis, historian Mark Noll demonstrates that some of the most influential Christian leaders in the nineteenth century, including Richard Fuller, James Henley Thornwell, J.W. Tucker, and probably a majority of Christians throughout America justified their pro-slavery stance with Scripture. [8]

This prompted many abolitionists like Garrison to become increasingly antagonistic to the inspiration and inerrancy of the Bible. Garrison wrote:

“There are two dogmas which the priesthood have attempted to enforce, respecting the Bible, from which has resulted great mischief. The first is – its plenary inspiration…the other dogma is – the Bible is the only rule of faith and practise; so that whatever it teaches or allows must be right, and whatever it forbids must be wrong, independent of all other considerations…. Hence, if slavery is or war is allowed in the book, it cannot be wrong.” [9]

Black abolitionists like Garrison’s close friend, Frederick Douglass, also adopted liberal theology. In his book, By These Hands, Black Liberation theologian Anthony B. Pinn explains that Frederick Douglass’ colleagues like unitarian preacher Theodore Parker, agnostic writer Robert Ingersoll, and his mentor, William Lloyd Garrison, convinced Douglass to reject biblical Christianity.[10]

Consequently, liberal theology became prominent within Black abolitionist circles. For instance, the Civil War-era Black abolitionist and women’s rights activist Sojourner Truth, rejected the deity of Christ. In her speech at the Ohio Women’s Convention in 1851, she said: “How came Jesus into the world? Through God who created Him and woman who bore Him.”[11]  By the beginning of the twentieth century, Black church leaders – particularly leaders within the African Methodist Episcopal Church, such as Henry Mcneal Turner and Reverdy C. Ransom advocated for a social gospel formed by liberal theology and Marxism.[12]

Their theology was much like Walter Rauschenbusch’s social gospel. In fact, Rauschenbusch’s book, Christianity and the Social Crisis, laid the foundation for liberation theology. Decades after the book’s release, Martin Luther King Jr. wrote, “Christianity and the Social Crisis…left an indelible imprint on my thinking by giving me a theological basis for the social concern which had already grown up in me.”[13]

Therefore, Martin Luther King Jr. and many of his peers, including Rosa Parks – a life-long member and deacon of the African Methodist Episcopal Church – embraced the social gospel. In a letter to his wife, Coretta Scott King, in 1952, Martin Luther King Jr. wrote, “Let us continue to hope, work, and pray that in the future we will live to see a warless world, a better distribution of wealth, and a brotherhood that transcends race or color. This is the gospel that I will preach to the world.”[14]

JAMES CONE

The fruits of Martin Luther King Jr.’s gospel blossomed into Black Liberation Theology almost two decades later. In 1969, James Cone – an ordained minister from the African Methodist Episcopal Church – released a book titled Black Theology and Black Power.

Just as many evangelicals today adopted social justice theology following Black Lives Matter’s emergence during the Ferguson riots, so the Black Power movement in the 1960s, and Martin Luther King Jr.’s social gospel shaped James Cone’ theology. Cone wrote:

“I did not want [Malcolm X] to disturb the theological certainties that I had learned in graduate school. But with the urban unrest in the cities and the rise of Black Power during the James Meredith March in Mississippi (June 1966) …I could no longer ignore Malcolm’s devastating criticisms of Christianity, particularly as they were being expressed in the articulate and passionate voices of Stokely Carmichael, Ron Karenga, the Black Panthers, and other young African-American activists. For me, the burning theological question was, how can I reconcile Christianity and Black Power, Martin Luther King, Jr.’s idea of nonviolence and Malcolm X’s ‘by any means necessary’ philosophy? The writing of Black Theology and Black Power was the beginning of my search for a resolution of that dilemma.”[15]

Thus, like Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, and many of his theological predecessors, James Cone rejected biblical theology. Black Liberation Theology is built on the foundation of liberal theology and the social gospel. Naturally, Black Liberation Theology rejects the inspiration and inerrancy of Scripture. James Cone wrote, “if the basic truth of the gospel is that the Bible is the infallible word of God, then it is inevitable that more emphasis will be placed upon ‘true’ propositions about God than upon God as active in the liberation of the oppressed of the land.”[16]

Black Liberation Theology was initially a reactionary theology against White, orthodox Christians who were apathetic or sympathetic to anti-Black racism. It’s the ramifications of a long history of many White Christians using the Bible to justify racist, pro-slavery, and segregationist beliefs. Therefore, this reactionary theology is prompted by anger and anti-White racism. Black Liberation Theology leaders admit that their theology is built on hatred for White people, but they do not believe that their hatred for White people is racist. Cone writes:

“It is important to make a further distinction here among black hatred, black racism, and black Power. Black hatred is the black man’s strong aversion to white society. No black man living in white America can escape it…. But the charge of black racism cannot be reconciled with the facts. While it is true that blacks do hate whites, black hatred is not racism.”[17]

James Cone’s selective definition for racism can be explained by Black Liberation Theology’s relativist positions on sin. In fact, Black Liberation Theology’s poor concept of sin is why it cannot offer anything more than a social gospel. Black Liberation Theology leaders major on social issues because they minor on sin. Its entire theological system is made up of man-centered or Black-centered thinking that cannot liberate those whom it purports to liberate. It is conformed to the world. Its proponents are not being transformed by renewing their mind on Scripture. Therefore, they cannot discern the good and perfect will of God. (Rom. 12:2) Cone again:

“But there is no perfect guide for discerning God’s movement in the world, Contrary to what many conservatives say, the Bible is not a blueprint on this matter. It is a valuable symbol for point to God’s revelation in Jesus, but it is not self-interpreting. We are thus place in an existential situation of freedom in which the burden is on us to make decisions without a guaranteed ethical guide.”[18]

For that reason, Black Liberation Theology doesn’t offer a saviour for sin. It doesn’t offer a sole saviour for a multitude of sins. It exchanges the power of God for Black power. It substitutes the supremacy of Christ for Black supremacy. It is a theology designed to repay evil for evil. Black Liberation Theology is simply a kind of liberal, social gospel.

Thus, in the 1997 edition of Black Theology and Black Power, James Cone wrote:

“As in 1969, I still regard Jesus Christ today as the chief focus of my perspective on God but not to the exclusion of other religious perspectives. God’s reality is not bound by one manifestation of the divine in Jesus but can be found wherever people are being empowered to fight for freedom. Life-giving power for the poor and the oppressed is the primary criterion that we must use to judge the adequacy of our theology, not abstract concepts.”[19]

In Black Liberation Theology, Jesus isn’t the God and saviour of sinners, He isn’t the atoning sacrifice who redeems the world. No, according to Black Liberation Theology teachers like James Cone, Jesus is merely the god of the oppressed – who uniquely identifies with Black people to liberate them from oppressive White people or “white devils” and “antichrists.”[20]

And as Cone explains in a 1980 essay, this liberation is a religious revolution with major political implications:

“Why not think of a completely new society and begin to devise ways to realize it on earth? Perhaps what we need today is to return to that “good old-time religion” of our grandparents and combine with it a Marxist critique of society. Together black religion and Marxist philosophy may show us the way to build a completely new society. With that combination, we may be able to realize in the society the freedom of which we sing and pray for in the black church.”[21]

In other words, Black Liberation Theology is Marxist philosophy with heretical theology. It’s a theological framework strictly designed to accomplish a Marxist revolution for Black people, and evangelical leaders like Jemar Tisby have become sympathetic to it.

But Black Liberation Theology is one of the most destructive heresies in Black American churches today. It’s shaped the way many Black people think about God and government. It’s shaped the way many people in Black American churches perceive themselves and others. But we shouldn’t be shaped by a history of racism, we should be shaped and conformed into the image of Christ. The answer to racism isn’t Black Liberation Theology. No, the answer to racism is biblical theology that doesn’t repay evil for evil.

Black Liberation Theology is destroying many Black Americans. Instead of capitulating to its heresies by adopting a form of their social justice theology to win their approval, we need to challenge Black Liberation Theology with the true gospel of Jesus Christ, who lived, died, and was resurrected for White, Black, and all sinners.

EVIDENCE SUGGESTING THAT AFRICAN AMERICANS ARE UNDER A GENERATIONAL CURSE

Definition:  Ancestral or Generational curses are the result of the sins of the fathers resulting in curses of captivity/slavery, death and destruction, sickness and infirmity, mental illness, poverty. Other signs include; mental or emotional breakdown(i.e. PTSD/POST TRAUMATIC SLAVERY DISORDER), breakdown of marriage and family, poverty, history of suicides or untimely deaths, abuse and mistreatment from other people, evil, misfortune, weeping sore in the night, no hope etc. 

It is a pronouncement of judgment(s) that bring the release of powerful forces against the person(s) that are being cursed.

Taken from the book: The Demon Hit list by John Eckhardt page 16.

 PART I

 According to Catholic Nun Anne Catherine Emmerich's vision:

 

 "I saw the curse pronounced by Noah upon Ham moving toward the latter like a black cloud and obscuring him. His skin lost its whiteness, he grew darker. His sin was the sin of sacrilege, the sin of one who would forcibly enter the Ark of the Covenant. I saw a most corrupt race descend from Ham and sink deeper and deeper in darkness. I saw that the black, idolatrous, stupid nations are the descendants of Ham. Their color is due, not to the rays of the sun, but to the dark source where those degraded races sprang".^[7] 

It is plausible that this is the real reason why Noah cursed Canaan Ham's youngest son: Ham finds his youngest son, Canaan in an illicit sexual act with his grandfather, who is so drunk that he could not defend himself; but not so drunk that he did not know who was guilty of this act. In Genesis 9:25-27 we read: “Then he said: ‘Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants he shall be to his brethren.’ And he said: ‘Blessed be the Lord, the God of Shem, and may Canaan be his servant. May God enlarge Japheth, and may he dwell in the tents of Shem; and may Canaan be his servant.’” Noah cursed the guilty one: Canaan.

WHY DID NOAH CURSE CANAAN FOR WHAT HAM DID?

Ham (Africa)

Ham (Heb. "hot" or "Black") was Noah's second oldest son and part of the family of eight who survived the great flood. Ham and his wife bore 4 sons who became the fathers of the nations of Africa. Ham's fourth son Canaan was prophetically cursed because he gazed at his fathers nakedness while he was drunk. This curse would mean later that Canaan would lose his land to the Hebrews and would be subservient to the descendants of Shem. The Hamites were known for their physical endurance.

The Four Hamitic Nations:

1. Cush (The Ethiopians) settled in Ethiopia south of Egypt, also early in their history some of them migrated to an area north of the Persian Gulf (Gen. 10:8-10).

2. Mizraim (The Egyptians) the Bible name for Egypt, settled in northeastern Africa.

3. Phut (The Libyans) sometimes translated Libya, settled in northern Africa.

4. Canaan (The Canaanites) settled above Africa east of the Mediterranean (Later was given to the Hebrews see map below).

PREFACE

African American curses can be traced from Africa to America to the present day. The blacks betrayed the blacks by capturing and selling them for slaves in other lands. Then came slavery to America. Out of slavery came curses on blacks and on America. Slavery created practices that continue to today.

Witchcraft was practiced in Africa. The slaves brought witchcraft to America. From slavery came witchcraft curses on blacks and America. The practices of witchcraft continue to today. The judgement of GOD is on America for slavery, witchcraft and other sins.

SLAVERY

This is a short version of the experience as written by Vunetia Mosley, Fresh Anointing International Church, Birmingham, Alabama. Katrina, name of the hurricane that hit New Orleans, is the goddess of witchcraft, tombs, demons and the underworld (vampires, spirits, werewolfs, etc.) David Dreiling said the GOD revealed to him that the hurricanes had to do with slavery. That is why they formed mysteriously off the coast of west Africa. Hurricanes, in hurricane alley, follow the slave trade routes to the Americas.

AFRICAN-AMERICAN EXPERIENCE

(Ministering Deliverance Within The Context

Of The African-American Experience)

These are some comments for African-American people:

1. They hold onto secrets and the dark side of life. They are tied-up in emotions. They need to put the emotions on the table and deal with the issues, hurts, fears and anger.

2. They seek approval but reject it out of fear of the wrong motives of others. The way they treat each other is the way they treat God. When they are overloaded, they cannot stay connected to God. They pull back from God and walk away.

3. The Church is not healthy and not dealing with their own issues. The inward child spirit (boy / girl) gets in the way. Fear is tied to childhood. They are kicking at the pricks.

4. There has been a raw hatred of the race in America. They have become prejudiced and bitter. Those who are older have seen the physical or emotional lynching of people and careers. They hate self because of color. There is a light / dark skin issue. The ceiling to God has become brass and the earth has become iron. Sometimes when they are side by side with a white, the white is favored in housing, check-out counter, etc.

5. They hate themselves but won't admit it. They will change their face and hair to look more white. They feel racist but must deal with it as a Christian. Slavery has brought a curse on them. They were beaten into submission. It was planned, perpetuated and thought biblical by whites. The curse must be broken so that the earth yields its fruits, and they have favor with God and man.

6. Preachers dispel the myth as head over the body as being prosperous and well thought of. People take care of expenses of family, come to him, drive a nice car, and still have spirits over them. They are bought a car and several suits with Anniversary Week for the pastors. They may have more than one wife and several families even in the same church; one would be legal with the other common law.

7. In slavery, black preachers were given free reign on the plantation with the women who were encouraged to believe in God. He could go from house to house which was expected. He was fed and lay with the women. These spiritual curses must be broken.

8. They could be sold to another plantation and start a new family. Children were considered promise seeds to work on the plantation. Black males still do that today and may have many children. This is African culture when man is not the husband of one wife.

9. The Devil needs to be exposed. It doesn't have to be like this. People are blind to the light of God. They must learn what the Scriptures say about them. This is a carry over from slavery and is passed down the generations.

10. Churches need to change and take the lead with a strong voice. There needs to be teaching of the truth where God will be allowed to act. God's anointing will flow with the answers. Chains and bondage can be broken.

11.We can setup an operating room and recovery room for deliverance patients. They have to break the demonic patterns handed down through the generations. They may need to be filled with The Holy Spirit.

12.No father at home brings rejection. They need the love of The Father God to be approved and accepted.

13.The altar should be open during the service and The Holy Spirit allowed freedom to act. Imputation and anointing of The Father's love needs to be ministered.

BREAKING THE CURSE OFF BLACK AMERICA

The African-American race labors under tremendous curses and afflictions. This race of people all behave the same. Many were high on crack cocaine, drunk on alcohol, unwed teenage mothers walking around with babies in their arms, young people driving expensive cars obtained largely from drug sale profits, ladies purposely dressed seductively, young men exposing their underwear, a staggering number of African-American male population filling the prisons, embracing homosexuality, prostitution and all sorts of perversion.

The result of disobedience is death. God's reward for sin, iniquities, perversions, and those who walk contrary to His Word is death - natural and spiritual.

There are various types of perversions: spiritual, sexual, financial, etc. Financial perversion encompasses - but is not limited to - cheating, stealing, robbery, bribes, covetousness, deceit, gambling, and unlawful gain. Perverse speech denotes lying, slander, cursing and swearing, and speaking blasphemous words.

African-Americans are a people group (ethnic) born of the seed of slavery. The mixture of races of Africans, Europeans, and Indians has produced a mixed breed now called African-American. Black America is under a curse of plagues, and vexations resulting in calamities - instead of blessings - overtaking them. Blessings and curses rests upon families, communities, and even entire nations.

An apparent consequence of the history of enslavement, bondage, and oppression is two fold: the belief of many Black Americans that they will never be free; and the opportunity that this belief provides for Satan to establish stronghold over this people group.

Among legally married persons, regardless of geographic region in the U.S., blacks are at greatest risk. Young black males are dying untimely deaths - it's a war zone of mass destruction. It is a perpetuated cycle of poverty and crime in the black community.

Forty million babies have been killed by abortion since 1973 when abortion was legalized, and 14 million of them were black. The aim of the program was to restrict - many believe exterminate - the black population with the Negro Project.

Black leaders must teach the truth from their pulpits, live the truth daily, and avoid making excuses for their insufficiencies. Therefore, some of the conditions under which many of the people exist are the primary responsibility of black church leaders.

The prevalence of high blood pressure in blacks in the United States is among the highest in the world. Blacks have almost twice the risk of first-ever strokes compared with whites. Among the leading cancers, prostate cancer among black men is about 15 times higher than among white men and 2.7 times higher than among Asian/Pacific Islander men.

In studies that compare individuals with similar levels of income and education, blacks have a shorter life expectancy than any other racial group. The Census Bureau indicated that by 2010 there would be only 85 black men for every 100 black women.

The lack of parental involvement has caused low self-esteem, lack of motivation to learn, laziness, apathy, and a lack of accountability among too many of the young people. Growing up uncovered, unprotected, unnourished, without a father, abandonment, total rejection, generational curses, and emptiness left by the absence of father.

Approximately 25 per 1,000 black children were confirmed victims of maltreatment, more than double the national average and the highest victimization rate among racial groups represented.

HIV was the number one cause of death for blacks between the ages of 25 and 44 in 2000. In 2002, the leading cause of HIV infection among black men was sexual contact with other men (sodomy or homosexual activity), followed by injection drug use and heterosexual contact. In 2002, blacks have the highest STD rates in the nation. Of new infections among men in the United States, approximately 60% of men were infected through homosexual sex, 25% through injection drug use, and 15% through heterosexual sex.

If the sin was sexual, it could bring adultery, incest, children from incestuous union, children born out-of-wedlock, destroy virginity, bestiality, homosexuality, lesbianism, and sodomy. Other curses come from parents, pastors, rulers, and authorities turning away from God, idolatry, pride, fleshly practices, and touching or harming God's anointed.

There are very few members living according to biblical principles, including the pastor and deacons. In reality, man-made traditions, man-made customs, and simply put, the flesh, are the guiding factors of the church. Sin is rampant with God appearing to be powerless to stop it. The lack of integrity of the ministerial leadership, the strongholds, bondages, and traditions of the Black Church. The profaneness has been released upon Black America by the spiritual leaders. Black America has paid a dear price for ignorance. The immoral activities and sensual behavior patterns have cost families and in some case lives.

The civil rights era was a turning point for Black America. After many protests, beatings, persecution, and marches, blacks began to be recognized as a people group. Rev. King's sexual escapades were intertwined with his manhood, just like other men of the cloth who were preoccupied or infatuated with love. We can determine that after Rev. Martin L. King, Jr. died, the symptoms of the curse broke forth and continued to multiply even until today. SCLC was a rowdy group that engaged in partying, featuring prostitution and even sexual harassment. There was a great release of spiritual profaneness by black leaders that has continued unto this day.

If church leaders are living in sin, what can be expected from Black America? There is no need to cover-up and shift the blame to others for the dilemma and continue to play the victim.

Christians are just churchin and sin is running rampant in the church, especially among today's leaders. Don't do as I do, do as I say is the principle. For years, deceit, mistrust, and lack of spiritual discipline and truth have eaten away at the core of these once hallowed organizations.

Today, more than ever before, men of the cloth are fornicating, and having children by women within their congregations. Sexual immoralities and perversion abide more inside the church than outside the church. All they can see is fame and fortune, but few look deep into the hurts, fears, and weaknesses of those who give the appearance that all is well.

We are beholding the fruit of sin, and it seems that whatever we wanted to happen is operating in reverse. Judges have been led away in handcuffs, and some black judges have been disbarred. A dark cloud appears to hover over Black America and the people are engulfed in a culture of sin. The Democratic Party is consistently on the wrong side of moral issues. That party led the way for abortion and homosexuality legislation. A culture of sin has fallen upon the black community, and it is in denial and refuses to hear the truth. Immorality is running rampant, touching every sector of the black community, starting with the leaders.

Many churches are in need of help, not having good leadership. There are pastors who cannot be found. There are ladies in churches who are laboring, even when men cannot be found and leadership is lacking.

Be assured, no matter how small the sin, it will be exposed when God reveals it in His own time. Many pastors and leaders are fully aware of the sins and demonic strongholds with which they are living. Many pastors are living a lie. Their man concern is for wealth and status.

Spiritual darkness is encountered everywhere. Some well-known preachers are living a lie. Many leaders in the Black Church are stumbling repeatedly as though the Lord cannot direct their path. There are bad batches of worship and praises going up to God in the black churches.

Much of the work of the Black Church is acceptable to man, but not unto God as it is done grudgingly and of necessity. There is a dire need for black leaders to see clearly in the Spirit. There is too much immorality in the Black Church, namely greed, pedophilia, homosexuality, lesbianism, adultery, and fornication. Immorality, unethical practices, and evil have spread in the church.

Homosexuals are directing church choirs and some are pastors and members of the clergy. There are many homosexuals taking over the music ministries (pastors are being held hostage).

The poverty and slavery mentality needs to be transformed, and strongholds of hopelessness and despair destroyed. Self-hatred and hatred for others needs to diminish. Black America needs to humble itself, and confess and repent for its sins and shortcomings on a national basis.

Sexually wounded and scarred females and males need to be healed. They have been victims to mental and physical illnesses, witness protection programs, drug rehabilitation centers, and welfare institutions. If God's call is not heeded and His cure not responded to, the curses will worsen.

RACES AND CULTURES

The names for races and cultures have changed through the years. Negro has become Black, Black American, Afro American and African American possibly the present preferred designation. Spanish has become Latin Oriented, Latin American and Hispanic possibly the present preferred designation.

BREAKING THE WILLIE LYNCH CURSE

Preface

This is American slavery; slavery in the West Indies is similar. I am going to read Breaking the Willie Lynch Curse which was provided by Stan and Elizabeth of demonbuster.com. This is very powerful and apparently was inspired by Satan and his demons. You can see these characteristics in the Black Race of people today. This could be the very reason why so many are on welfare today. The curse must be broken off your blood line. Can you recognize these characteristics in your race?

Effects

Today with the use of drugs, fear, distrust, envy and murders, we can see the effects of these terrible curses. The Lord gave the revelation of the Willie Lynch curse to a friend of ours. After breaking this curse, she felt a release. Others have commented that they too have felt a release from this curse.

Let's Make A Slave - The Origin and Development

of a Social Being Called The Negro

This book written by William Lynch outlined the methods that he had used to control the slaves he owned. These methods placed many curses on the Black Race, even keeping them in bondage today. He also told the people to have their white servants and their overseers to distrust all Blacks.

Quote by Willie Lynch

In my bag here, I have a fool proof method for controlling your Black slaves. I guarantee everyone of you that, if installed correctly, it will control the salves for at least three hundred years.

Speech

William Lynch was a white slave owner, who reportedly made a speech on the banks of the James River in 1712. In this speech, Lynch spoke of having methods to control slaves. These methods could have only come from Satan himself. Lynch used fear, distrust, envy and beatings. He even went as far as murdering the males in front of the women and children in order to control the minds of the slaves.

He went on to say that the slave, after receiving this indoctrination, would carry on the practice. It would become self-refueling and self-generating for hundreds of years, maybe even thousands. He told them that by killing the protective male image, it would throw the females into a frozen psychological state of independency. This would result in her raising her offspring into reverse positions.

The female offspring would be taught to be like herself, independent and negotiable. The male offspring would be raised to be mentally dependent and weak. He said that the owners were to cause the young men, old men and the females to distrust each other. However, make the slaves trust and depend on the owners and their families.

Lynching

The term lynching is said to have come from this man. He apparently would lynch slaves as a means to control other slaves. There is still some vigilante action in the world today taken primarily against the Black Race by the White Race. There is a fear of the Black Race of being lynched by White People.

The term lynching can also be applied without hanging. It can be used for unjust treatment of the Black Race in their personal lives, their ministry lives and in their business lives. They are essentially "lynched" out of what is rightfully theirs.

Our Ministry

Our ministry started in the African American churches. We minister to African Americans in church and in our home. God gave us a burden to help set my brothers and sisters free. This is a partial lesson about how to minister to the Black Race that has bondage that originates in Africa.

Prayer

Lord Jesus Christ, I forgive Willie Lynch and all those involved in slave trade and slave use throughout time whether in the Black or White Race. I forgive those who treat the Black Race as slaves today. I forgive all who want to lynch me personally, ministerially and business-wise today. I pray that you would forgive and bless them with spiritual blessings, especially salvation.

In the Name of Jesus Christ, I break the curse of Willie Lynch off of me and my bloodline going back to 1712 and earlier. I now break all curses placed on me by those involved in slavery and those who treat me like a slave. I command the demons restore to me and my family everything that they have stolen from us. I command this in the name of Jesus Christ, my Savior, Lord and Master. Amen.

Deliverance

I now command every demon whose legal right has been taken away by this prayer to manifest and leave me. I command the spirits of drug addiction, fear, distrust, envy, murder, control, physical abuse, frozen psychic, demonic independence, mental weakness, lynching spirit, vigilante spirit and related spirits to go. I do this by the power and blood of Jesus Christ, and the authority invested in me by being a Christian. Amen

BREAKING STRONGHOLDS IN THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN FAMILY

Preface

These are characteristics of African Americans. Do you recognize these characteristics?

Relationships

Black Men: You can't trust black women. Black women are mean, spiteful, and they use you. Women are only good for having babies and cooking. You have to slap a woman around every now and then. You have to love them and leave them. Black Women: all black men are dogs. Women must take charge and never let a man control them. I can't live without this man. He beats me, but he's a good man. Black Youth: My parents don't deserve obedience.

Morality and Character

Black Men: It's all right to have more than one woman. Drugs and alcohol are not that bad. The only thing that is important is what you do for yourself.

Black Women: You've got to sleep with a man in order to get him.

Black Youth: Everybody else is doing it and so can I. I will do whatever I want. I will hurt others before I hurt myself. I have to do whatever to look cool to my friends and I have to have sex to be accepted by my homeys.

Religion

Black Men: I am God. The Bible is the white man's religion. Islam is the black man's religion and the Masons are a good thing.

Black Women: Following my horoscope is all right to engage in and to use to find a mate. Eastern Star is a good thing. Islam is the black man's religion. The church is full of hypocrites. Christianity is a crutch for weak black folks. The Masons are a good thing. I go to church, but I need some stuff from the occult shop too.

Black Youth: There is no God.

Prayer

I forgive all black men, black women and black youth for the way they have treated me. Forgive me for the way I have treated them. In Jesus Name I pray. Amen.

Deliverance

I command the spirits of distrust, meanness, spitefulness, physical abuse, unfaithfulness, control, disobedience, adultery, fornication, drug addiction, alcoholism, murder, hate, horoscopes, Eastern Star, Islam, hypocrisy, and Masonry to manifest and leave me in the Name of Jesus Christ.

BLACK RACIST PREACHER

 Below is the most despicable, black racist, race peddling preacher I've ever heard or known in my lifetime. He preaches Black Supremacy to his congregation and encourages blacks to incite a revolt against America because of slavery among other things.  He even calls some of his own members NIGGERS! AND I MEAN RIGHT FROM THE PULPIT.

Listen to the videos below carefully and follow the  links  for more details with regards to this false apostle. It wouldn't surprise me if he is now burning in hell. He was a prosperity pimp! His ministry was all about money. This race baiter claims that black people have never declared war on the United States, but have always been loyal to this country. Really? See the following links below which refutes this BLACK RACIST PATHOLOGICAL LIAR:

  10 ways black racist keep the race war alive in America according to Wypipo

 
10. Play the Victim
One of the biggest reasons racism exists is that black people love playing the victim. It has been one of the favorite Negro pastimes ever since Africans locked themselves in chains, stowed away on American cruise ships and crossed the Atlantic Ocean. Apparently, we are so in love with this dangerous activity, we are willing to subject our bodies to bullets and police batons just to participate in our own victimhood. We have passed it down through generations by naming our children whatever the hell we want, in hopes that employers will continue the practice of throwing their résumés in the trash. None of this is white people’s fault. It is black people’s fault because, by pointing out systemic inequalities like wage discrimination, school funding and disparities in the criminal-justice system, we waste valuable time not working twice as hard as our white counterparts to get half as much.

9. Engage in Identity Politics
When black people vote for black candidates, they are playing right into the hands of identity politics. Despite the fact that Donald Trump’s white voters were motivated by race, female voters are encouraged to vote for female candidates, Catholics voted for John F. Kennedy, Mormons voted for Mitt Romney, and politicians openly invoke their Christian identity to appeal to evangelical voters, the moniker of “identity politics” applies only to black voters. A majority of white people have never voted for a black presidential candidate. Yet it is black people who keep racism alive because white is not considered a political identity. It is a birthright.

8. Make Everything About Race
Even when black people have no intention of playing the victim, they indirectly keep racism alive simply by making everything about race. For instance, when a group of Upper West Side parents in New York City objected to plans to integrate one of the most segregated school districts in America, The Root fellow Anne Branigin decided to make the parents’ anger all about race. Anyone laboring under the delusion that New York City is a progressive bastion need look no further. In this instance, Branigin secretly stood at the entrance to the meeting and kept black parents from attending. Then she egregiously used actual quotes from actual parents who complained about black and Hispanic children attending the schools. In this case, it wasn’t the outraged parents, the school district or the history of segregation. It was Branigin’s fault for twisting an incident that was not at all about race into something that was all about race.

7. Discuss History
Black people love bringing up old stuff like slavery, history and truth. They will often bring up slavery at inopportune times, like history classes. The only logical reason blacks insist on making every discussion on the Civil War about slavery and white supremacy is that every available historical document about the Civil War actually cites slavery and white supremacy as the reasons for the conflict, and mentions nothing about Southern pride and cultural heritage. Every Confederate state that wrote a declaration of secession mentioned slavery. When Confederate President Jefferson Davis said, “White men have an equality resulting from a presence of a lower caste, which cannot exist where white men fill the position here occupied by the servile race,” he was apparently trying to keep racism alive. He did a damn good job, too.

6. Be a Reverse Racist
One of the newest techniques in the field of racism technology is oppressing white people. Despite the fact that white people control every branch of the federal government, the financial industry, the entertainment industry, corporate America and the production of white tears, most white people feel that they are discriminated against. Recently, white people have been forced to endure the harmful effects of only working jobs for which they are qualified and having their grades and test scores determine where they attend college. Meanwhile, blacks benefit from affirmative action mandates that allow them to apply for jobs for which they are qualified and to be accepted into colleges based on their grades and test scores. How racist.

5. Use Facts
A 2015 study shows that the only significant determining factor in predicting whether someone shot and killed by police was unarmed is whether or not the victim was black. Schools with higher numbers of black students receive less funding. Black men receive longer prison sentences than white men who commit the same crimes. These are facts. But people who mention these peer-reviewed, scientific studies are playing the race card because, obviously, numbers are biased against Caucasians. As a matter of fact, pointing out the measurable, quantifiable existence of racism is, in and of itself, an extreme act of bigotry against white people. Facts are racist.

4. Mention the Words “White Privilege”
A recent study showed that black kids born to rich parents are as likely to be incarcerated as white kids born to parents making $36,000 per year. The study showed that, regardless of the neighborhood, education or income of black parents, their children will likely earn less than white kids whose parents are poorer and less educated and live in better neighborhoods. Black kids receive harsher discipline in schools. Whites are more likely to sell drugs, but blacks are more likely to be arrested for it. Black boys are perceived as older and less innocent than white kids the same age. Meanwhile, white children are exempt from being disadvantaged and criminalized at birth. But referring to that reality as “white privilege” means that you are attacking white people and being racist. Fortunately, whites have solved this problem. No, they haven’t worked to eliminate prejudice (don’t be silly). Instead, they just introduced an alternative, semantics-based solution. There is no such thing as white privilege. Black people are just underprivileged. See. They fixed it for you.

3. Don’t Blame Black People
It is possible to breathe life into racism without even talking to white people. For instance, according to the FBI’s Uniform Crime Report, combined with U.S. population estimates, in any given year, 95 percent of black people don’t commit a crime. In black neighborhoods, the number of anti-violence marches, education initiatives and crime-prevention groups far outweigh the number of Black Lives Matter marches. Yet black people don’t want to talk about black-on-black crime. Why? Maybe it’s because white people never see these efforts, since media outlets don’t deem them newsworthy. Maybe it’s because, contrary to stereotypes, there is such a small percentage of black criminals. And maybe white people don’t know about these examples because there is no reason to talk to white people about black issues. Nah, it’s gotta be because we’d rather keep racism alive by blaming whites.

2. Say “White People”

Because white people are accustomed to being seen as individuals, they hate being referred to as white people. It chaps their hides. Even laughing at the caucalicious phrase “chaps their hide” is racist, as is any variation of the term “white people,” including, but not limited to, “colonizer,” “mayonaisse American,” “undermelanated,” “a citizen of Rhythmless Nation” or “a Michael Rapaportian.”

1. Be Black
Most people don’t know that white people are scientifically incapable of tasting seasonings (which saves them a lot of money but costs them a lot in ridicule).  Being black means we get to do things that white people can’t do, which is patently unfair. Despite the fact that White History Month is celebrated 11 months every year, Black History Month keeps racism alive. BET and TV One make wypipo upset because wypipo only have 1,295 white television networks. But the one thing that really upsets white people is the fact that they can’t use the n-word without being accused of being racist, while black people get to say it all the time. This double standard keeps racism alive because everyone knows that white people spend 22.94 percent of their time dreaming of a valid reason that would allow them to say “nigger” at the top of their lungs. Even when they’re with their sorority sisters or in a presidential Cabinet meeting, they are persecuted whenever they say something that disparages black people, and it is patently unfair. Not only does this inequality keep racism alive, but more important ... It really chaps their hides.

PART II

The curse of slavery has left an intergenerational legacy of trauma and poor health for African Americans

African Americans experience much higher rates of poverty, unemployment, and negative health outcomes compared to Whites in the US. Michael J Halloran writes that the intergenerational cultural trauma caused by 300 years of slavery – alongside poor economic circumstances and social prejudice – has led to the poor state of physical, psychological and social health among African Americans.

In his 1952 semi-autobiographical novel Go Tell it on the Mountain, the esteemed African American author James Baldwin asked the question “Could a curse come down so many ages? Did it live in time, or in the moment?” In my work, I argue that the curse of African American slavery cannot be underestimated; the trauma of enslavement has been carried by African Americans through the ages and generations and is currently shown in many of the health problems experienced by a significant proportion of the African American population in the US. My research focusses on how intergenerational trauma provides an important explanation for the persistence of health problems among African Americans; complementary to the more apparent negative impact of poverty and prejudice on health.

The success, wealth and notoriety of African Americans like Oprah, Obama, Beyonce and Michael Jordan masks the comparatively negative physical, psychological, and social health conditions of African Americans in general. For example, research shows the incidence of diabetes, high blood pressure, premature death from heart disease, and prostate cancer are generally double among adult African Americans compared to White Americans. African Americans experience significantly higher psychological stress and PTSD, and these are related to depressive symptoms, poor self-rated health, functional physical limitations and chronic illness. Similar comparisons of social health show homicide rates are higher, black men are 5 times more likely to be incarcerated than Whites (5 percent of the African American male population are incarcerated in many American states), and illicit drug use and rates of intimate partner violence are highest among African Americans.

Two valid explanations for theses outcomes have received significant focus in the research literature: poor economic circumstances and social prejudice. Indeed, the poverty and unemployment rate among Black Americans has been at least double that of Whites over the last 40 years despite an overall decline (see Figure 1) and Blacks represent only 1.4 percent of the top 1 percent of households by income even though they comprise 13.6 percent of the US population. At the same time, research also clearly shows implicit prejudice is widespread in the US and related to negative health outcomes among African Americans like psychiatric symptoms, stress and cigarette smoking and a greater risk of heart attacks.

Figure 1 – Percentage of the US population in poverty or unemployed

In line with these explanations, policy initiatives by successive American governments have sought to alleviate poverty, yet with short-lived success; the economic status of Black Americans and the economic inequality between Black and White Americans has changed little in the past 50 years. Similarly, it appears anti-discrimination laws and policies have been at best a limited solution to prejudice. For example, Black Americans are currently over-represented in the lower-paid service sectors, with lower job security, wages and benefits. And, African Americans still feel victims of prejudicial and unequal treatment as highlighted by the contemporary Black Lives Matter social movement.

Contemporary policies directed to address poverty and prejudice may have limited impact as they primarily target the injustices of today and do little to consider the impact of past injustices on the current state of African American health. My research focuses on how intergenerational trauma can help to explain the poor current health of African Americans. I argue that the historical legacy of enslavement and transmission of the associated cultural trauma is an important sociocultural perspective to understand the present generations of African Americans.

The notion of traumatic effects of enslavement being transferred to successive generations starts with the idea that slavery was not only a dreadful individual ordeal but a cultural trauma to African American people; a syndrome which occurs when a group has been subject to an unbearable event or experience thereby undermining their sense of group identity, values, meaning and purpose, or their cultural worldviews and is manifest in symptoms of hopelessness, despair and anxiety (notably, among Indigenous people subject to colonization and genocide and Holocaust survivors). Indeed, there was little value or meaning to African American lives under slavery; they were callously tied to their capacity for labor or ability to reproduce. Moreover, their identity was literally supplied by whoever happened to own them as though there was “not even a separate identity the ego can claim”. As the eminent African American essayist W.E.B. Du Bois claimed, African Americans were effectively banned from any pursuit of a cultural life through laws to prevent reading, writing and most communal life.

At the same time, the symptoms of cultural trauma were evident during enslavement and found in many personal narratives from those times (e.g., Hannah Crafts, Frederick Douglas, Harriet Jacobs). Moreover, ongoing evidence of intergenerational trauma is then shown in the stories of many prevalent Black authors over subsequent years (e.g., Ernest Gaines, Zora Hurston, Richard Wright, Alice Walker). In Black Boy (1945), Richard Wright laments “My days and nights were one long, quiet, continuously contained dream of terror, tension, and anxiety. I wondered how long I could bear it”.

The contemporary situation of African American culture is viewed similarly and described as being practically on the edge of self-destruction; labelled as a collective pathology with respondents in a recent study claiming enslavement legacies impact on current-day African American psychological functioning. Research findings also shows high levels of accumulated trauma and hopelessness among African Americans are correlated with negative health outcomes (such as high blood pressure) and suicidal thoughts and behaviors.

The poor general state of African American physical, psychological and social health demands a comprehensive response from researchers, health practitioners, policy-makers and the community. The cultural trauma experienced by African Americans over the more than 300 years of their enslavement has been transmitted to the current generation and is related to their current general state of poor health. This perspective implies strategies to strengthen the resilience of African American cultural worldviews would remedy the negative impact of cultural trauma on their health. Indeed, interventions which harness cultural themes (e.g., racial, respect, cultural identity and values) act as a protective factor in the health of African Americans and significantly reduce anger and aggression in African American adolescent males.

Of course, the success of any strategy to alleviate intergenerational trauma and its effects needs to be considered in terms of the bigger picture of relations between Blacks and Whites in the US. The contemporary notions of collective responsibility for the past era of slavery and white privilege from the imposition racial inequality, however, is largely unacknowledged or resisted by most White Americans. As Martin Luther King put it: “When Negroes assertively moved on to ascend the second rung of the ladder, a firm resistance from the white community developed”. Nonetheless, research suggests one way out this dilemma is to emphasize a shared worldview and humanity between African and White Americans to reduce the impact of intergroup tensions. Martin Luther King advocated similarly when he argued for a human-rights approach to alleviating the poor social and economic conditions of African Americans. A human rights approach has the potential to heal the past Black and White relations in the US and nullify any resistance there may be to those who would seek to alleviate the negative effects of intergenerational trauma on the health and well-being of African Americans.
