The Bible's greatest claim is that God loved the world so much that he sacrificed his son for it ~ John 316. Sacrifice is defined as: something given up or lost. Jesus death was painful and humiliating but what did he really lose? Jesus knew that he was going to be sacrificed and resurrected. Jesus knew that once he was resurrected he would be in a throne in heaven with his father. Jesus died a painful death on the cross, one he knew that would happen. He was resurrected and walked the earth again and was then taken to be with his father in heaven. This sounds more like a promotion actually. A couple of days of pain followed by eternity in paradise. How does a couple days of suffering translate to "the ultimate sacrifice" when those days were followed by an eternity of bliss at God's side? What did Jesus really sacrifice?

Truthfully, He knew of his suffering, and life again. He gave that freely, and his sacrifice was a blood sacrifice. What he sacrificed most of all was because his LOVE for All people to have eternity with Him if they will believe. And if God's chooses to promote love. I would follow the "ultimate sacrifice" to have the bliss of sharing in the eternity with Him.

LOVE SACRIFICED: Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trust, always hopes always perseveres. Love never fails. 1 Corinthians 13: 1-8 NIV

Truth be told if you don't have complete faith in what you've been told, none of its authority has activation in your life. If you were as old as I am, you could remember that the Bible was full of illustrations, in which none of them showed images of Black people.

Brother Truth, I have an esoteric interpretation. Essentially, according to Divine Law, blood shed is the payment for sin. Sin is so offensive to the Divine, that punishment must be made for it's remission. It's sort of how someone can kill a person, and perhaps the victim's family forgives the murderer, however, the murderer MUST be punished in some fashion in order for justice to be served. Sin cannot simply be forgiven, someone or something must be slaughtered to atone for it. Basically, hell is a punishment of sin. Definition of Hell = the slaughter and final death of the soul. Now the Bible does not specifically describe the instrument that Jesus died upon, archaeology proves that Jesus died on an upright stake rather than a cross. Yet the thing about God according to the four gospels is the Divine is able to kill the soul yet resurrect it again. So, Jesus knew he would be resurrected again, but notice the scars on his feet and hands and his side remained. He-Jesus-would be looking like we looked to him, he would appear as prophecy reads, like he had been slain from the foundation. The Bible describes his "robe" still having blood stains on it. His sacrifice was being acquainted with the wrath of Almighty God for the sins of others.

Check this out all of you! You all are a bunch of stupid *****S descendents of plantation slaves what the hell do you all know about the history of Jewish people and their Jewish Jesus. You all should know about your own damn history first, people. But, you all don’t know anything about yourselves. When the question is asked who are we as a people and how did we get here we don’t know. But, we know about the Jews. We are some stupid people. I said that we are a new race of people. Everybody disagree with me but nobody can say that I am wrong when I explain myself.

Mr. Wannabee dictator, there you go name calling stupid again. You want us to only learn about our history in America because you refuse to have any connection with ancestors in Africa. Are you ashamed to face your past? I'm going to make you feel like you have the last word when I don't respond to your next comment.

Hello Helen, You called me a dictator, but I’ve told and proven to you that I am your prophet. You want to be nasty to me so that is why you call me a dictator. That is not smart at all. Then you said this, “You want us to only learn about our history in America because you refuse to have any connection with ancestors in Africa.” I never said that I wanted us Black Americans to ONLY learn of our history. I just think it would be smart of us to learn about ourselves FIRST before we go off trying to learn about other people we not of. Plus, I know you don’t know anything about yourself and your Black American people since you still think we came from Africa when I’ve already explained to you over and over that we are a new race of people that had never existed before plantation slavery in this country. The reason that God is helping us is because we are a new race of people that don’t know who we and God is. Our cries have reached the ears of God if you will and God has anointed Prophet Harry to deliver us.

Queen Helen, I thank you and Queens Miisrael and Siebra for their contributions to this forum. Although the Bible never showed any real illustrations of Black people, the Bible is full of Black people. It's just that whites are always trying to delete them from the scriptures. There is Job, the wealthiest Oriental -- but he is routinely shown as white even with blue eyes. There is the Ethiopian Eunich -- obviously of very Black skin but they depict him as white also. There is Jesus who had hair like lamb's wool and very dark skin, but whites depict him as a white man with blue eyes. Most people in the Bible were not white. Our people have been brainwashed because of the racism exhibited by whites where they feel everything they look at or touch must be white. I truly look forward to this day and I look forward to meeting many of the Black people and Egyptians who were Black also from the Bible. I hope God sees worthy of me, but don't think that whites were only in the Bible. You surely cannot get Black from white, so even our brain (brainwave) should tell us that Adam and Eve, even parts of Noah's family, were Black. Africa is the motherland where all human existence came into place!

Queens Irma asked "HARRY HOW IS TH ENATION BUILDING COMING? OR IS IT STILL ALL IN YOUR MTHE PLANIN GIT ALL IN YOUR MIND? (SMILE)...THE WHOLE WORLD WASMADE IN ONLY 7 DAYS...WHATS HAPPENING? (SMILE)" LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Queens Miisrael and Siebra, I agree with a lot of what your shared in that Jesus sacrified love. Jesus was a wonderful messenger of God, yet I believed Jesus did not die for our sins, but FROM our sins. I believe you carry only your own sin. No one else does it for you. We are each responsible for our own sins and will be judged accordingly.
