Rod Meredith sent out a letter to the ministers today and wants them to STOP their African American members to stop believing that Jesus was a black man. That's after he patronizes his black members by telling them they are a dear to him and he appreciates them and their UNUSUAL abilities."
So is the idea of Charlotte HQ employees talking about Jesus being black getting on Rod's nerves and he has to lay a power trip on them all now? But don't worry folks! Rod appreciates your service and your unusual abilities...like winning races at the church picnics or playing great basketball, or cooking super fantastic food. Really, Meredith said this? 60 some years in the cult and he still has not learned to keep his mouth shut and lets race still remain an issue. That British Israelism mantra sure does create a sticky-wicket!
Does God really give a rats ass if a follower believes Jesus is black or pictures him as their own nationality?
Recently we have had a number of people here at Headquarters and elsewhere bring up the issue of Black Israel, and the idea that Jesus was a black man. As you know, we in no way want to put down our black brethren – they are dear to us and we appreciate their service, and their unusual ability in many areas. On the other hand we do NOT want to condone ideas that misconstrue the Bible and deceive God's people into believing ideas that would bring us into reproach before world, and most of all before God Himself. If any of you have any questions about this let us know, we do have the answers.
