I write these few words to communicate truth and this for your own benefit and edification. Nothing more. I do have friends who are “blacks” and want them and you to know that I hold no “grudges” against them and others. No, as a Christian, as followers of Jesus, I do want to treat all people as worthy of respect and kindness. In fact, we want to be people of good will to blacks, to whites, and to all other ethnicities.

I realize also that these words go out to people in the nearly 200 countries of the world and now there are perhaps 340 million people in America, which would be perhaps 4 or 5% of the people of the world population. Thus, we are referring to many people, a host of people in the nine billion people of the world. Even if we look at this nation, we know that the number is large.

Those of you who follow the news, we do know that the majority of the population here are wicked beyond measure. For instance, from what we have read, some 2/3 of the population are positive toward killing their babies. This can only be if these dear people believe in and support and practice fornication. And if this number are involved in this sex sin, think of those who haven’t!

We know that this is not limited to only one person among the many people in the country. No, for everyone who has or is committing fornication and adultery, there are many more who are not presently involved in this sex sin. It surely would take a minority of people, probably true Christians, who have kept themselves pure and holy in the midst of this onslaught of evil in which we dwell.

And we must say that there are probably many people in the world who are not involved in sex sin of one kind or another. However, sadly, we think that many of these people are involved in various false teachings and practices. We refer to Muslims, Catholics, Hindus, Buddhists, and others. They may keep themselves from evil in some measure but also are involved in all sorts of evil.

While they may be pure physically, as false religionists, they are not pure spiritually. We find this utterly sad. In America, where I come from, we may contend that we are pure and blameless regarding sexual sin (see Matthew 5:8), but regretfully, we know that America, especially American youth, are evil beyond bounds!

And now let us get back to the “slaves” and “blacks” in America. We are aware that there are massive numbers of blacks in Penitentiaries (or prisons), much more than whites. And this may be true of other ethnicities also. Unemployment is higher. Divorce and remarriage are higher. Drug use is much higher among blacks.

But, at the same time, we must not overlook the fact that blacks are more religious, more inclined to read their Bibles, more likely to “go to church,” and such matters as compared to whites and others. Yes, it is true that blacks may be more likely to be Pentecostals, black women are more likely to be feminist, black women are more likely to be dominant over the man, have a higher education, and divorce, as compared to whites. But this doesn’t necessarily mean that black women are more prone to false teaching than whites (such as women’s leadership, women pastors, etc.).

Of course, as we have shown elsewhere, there are differences physically regarding blacks. For example, blacks are more likely to die earlier than whites (perhaps 4 to 6 years earlier). They are more likely to develop dementia (such as Alzheimer’s). We have read that fifty percent of blacks develop this abnormality as compared to whites. Again, remember that we use “blacks” in a guarded way and they be called by other designations (such as “colored,” “African-Americans,” or simply “blacks”).

This no way reveals the spirituality of this ethnic group, but it merely shows that there are differences between blacks and whites, as well as Hispanics, Asians, and others. Keep in mind also that perhaps six or seven million Hispanics (from Mexico, Guatemalans, Venezuela, Haiti, etc.) are law-breakers for they have entered America illegally. And if there were some seven million of such aliens, we would think that there could be perhaps 40 or 45 million totally (which is only a guess).

So blacks are here, with positives and negatives, with the good and the bad. This is true in many ways, thus we must commit this to God and His truth. He knows what is right and wrong—and will do all things well, in His timing and according to His will.
