Race ... Relations!?!?!

Brethren,
Who Can Tell Me
How Many Races There Are?!

Me! Me! Me!

Yes, Big Sam! 

I Can And I Shall Name Them All In One Breath!
Here Goes:

Drag Foot Human Boat Swim Political Horse
Downhill Speed Endurance Walk And Rat ... Race!

12 In All!

There Followed Silence
And Then Everybody Bu'st Out Laughing!
Some Laughed So Hard Until There Were Tears
And Coughing ...

Until Young Feb Said Rather Loudly:

But My Class Teacher Says That

There Are At Least Four Human Races

And Big Sam Only Named One!

He Didn't Answer The Question Correctly!

The Discussion
- From Thence -
Turned
A Decidedly Ugly Shade Of Brown 'N Black Dark Memory
Overlaid With White-Right Supremacy
Interspersed With Economic-Envy Green
Sprinkled Liberally With Bleeding-Red Blood
Laid Out On An Ivory-Inlaid Bed Of Yellow Cowardice
Shot Through With Dastardly-Doings Dirty Dirt!

Suddenly
In The Midst Of A Momentary Lull In Conversation
The Voice Of Faith Through Grace
And
Reason Through Thoughtfully-Considered Mindfulness
- Soft And Gentle And Firm
Not Forced
Not Fractured
Not Overwhelmed With Overwrought Emotionalism -
Spoke:

Brethren Beloved,
We Are Believers In The Lord Jesus Christ
The Creator Of All Things
Seen And Unseen
Known And Unknown
In The Heavens Above
On The Earth Beneath
In The Fountains Of Waters
The Rivers Lakes Oceans And Seas!

This Jesus
The Only Begotten Son Of The Father God
Is The God Of Order!
He Is Neither A Cobbler

A Journeyman
Nor A Fabricator!
He Is Neither Liar Nor Thief!

This Lord Jesus Does Not Inspire Fiction

AND
He Does Not Foment
War And Strife 

Nor Inspire Doubt!

This Same Christ Jesus
Is Not A One-Trick Pony
- Pardon My Expression -
That
- Lacking Creativity Ingenuity
Originality And Stick-To-Itiveness -
Made A Man
AND

Rendered From That One Man
Several Variations ... On A Theme!

Despite The Rubbish
Being Foisted On Impressionable Minds
About
The Race$
Big Sam Is Quite Correct
In Calling Out

THE HUMAN RACE

As In
Jesus Christ Made Adam
AND
Out Of Adam
Jesus Christ Took A Rib
AND
Made Adam A Help-Meet
A Single Female Named Called
Represented Shown To Be Eve

"... The Mother Of ALL Living!"

The Lord Jesus Christ

- Via The Inspired Word -
Did Not Stutter!

Did Not Mumble!

Did Not Utter Alternative Facts!

Did Not Publish Fake News!

There Is One Race ... Human!
No Sects!
No Off-Shoots!
No Second String!
No Off-Scourings!
No To-Be Grafted Race O'Man Lil' Bits Of Branches!

Do You Not Think That

It Is Time To Wake Up

AND

Realize

Without A Single Doubt

That

We Are All One?!

You Could Have Heard A Pin Drop ...

I Am Human!

I Am Made Out Of The Dust Of The Earth!

The Creator God

The Lord Jesus Christ

Breathed

Into My Progenitors

The Breath Of Life

AND

By Descent

I Am A Living Soul!

I Am Not Color!

I Am Not Economy!

I Am Not Education!

I Am Not Caste!

I Am Not Undiscovered!

I Am Not Big Head!
I Am Not Low Brow!

I Am The Creation Of The Creator-God!

I - By Faith - Am A Child Of The Great King!

I Am A Praying Member Of

The Living God's Family!

Pray Tell,

What, Now, Are You?!

Any Questions?!

There Was Not A Dry Eye In The Audience Room!

Things Did Not Change Overnight

BUT

Seeing People

Are Actually Looking At People ... As Flesh And Blood

For. The. Very. First. Time!

It Is Quite Refreshing!

CRUISING FOR A BRUISING: The Title Bout!

Fancy Appellations
Do Not Good Christians Make
For
In The Day Of Trial
That "Good Christian" Will
His Own Reputation
Seek To Save
Instead Of Standing In The Truth
For The God Of Heaven's Sake!

What's An Appe-lation?

An Appellation Is A Title
Often A Title Grand
Signifying That One Is
A Master If You Will
Of The Skill Talent
Endeavor
By Which He Or It Stands
And Is Known!

Huh?!

Okay ... It's Like This:

Barbados Is The Gem Of The Caribbean
New York Is The Big Apple
Ringling Bros. Is The Greatest Show On Earth
Billy Graham Is The Great Legitimator
Solomon Was The Wisest Man Who Ever Lived
Cassanova Was The World's Greatest Lover
AND
To Bring It All Just A Little Bit Closer
Do You Remember Norbert?!

Sure Do! 

He Is Called A Man Of Prayer!
Fraser Is A Most Gifted Preacher
Tiffany Is The Best Psalmist
Blondell Is The Star

And Demanee Is The Most Devoted Christian Ever ...!

Wait A Minute!
Now I Understand!

Do You Remember When
God's Right Hand
That Rare Visionary
And Devoted Man Of God
And All Around Bulldog For Christ
The Rottweiler For Righteousness
Brother Dr. Rev. Apostle Prophet Hussy
Was Introduced At The Last Master's Conference?!

Yes, I Do!

Did You Understand  ...
Do You Now Understand Where
I Am Leading?!

Yes, I Think I Do ...!
Yes! I Do!
Lord, Help Us!

Not Six Weeks Later 
Church Was In Uproar
Because
The Bulldog Had Imbibed Much Vodka With Sour Lime!
The Rottweiler Had Torn Down A Hemline!
The Doctor Has Committed Malpractice!
The Apostle Was Proved Not To Be A Saint!
The Prophet Had Prophesied Lies
AND  ...

Isn't It Interesting What Happens
When We Focus On Self
Instead Of Lifting Up The Lord
When We Pander To The Fraud
AND
Believe That We Are The Best Thing
Since Choice Bread
AND
Behave As If We Are Doing
The Living God A Great Favor
By Us Allowing Ourselves
To Be Called By His Name?

Oh, Dear! Oh, Dear!
Not Good! Not Good At All!

Didn't Jesus Warn About
The Pharisees
And Their Love For Fancy Titles
AND
Did He Not Tell The Disciples

The Inspired Psalmist King David Said It Best:

A Good Name Is To Be Preferred
Before Great Riches!

But ...

What Do We See In This Day?

Every Body And His Brother
Loves To Know That He Has A Letter
Or Two Or Three Or Four
For The Letters Get Him
Access Reach And Grasp
AND
He Becomes The Gatekeeper Of Glory
The One That Every Seeker Must Get Past!

The Higher The Monkey Climb
The More You See His Raw Behind
AND
- As The Lord, Himself, Stated
To The Laodicean Church -
He Needs To Buy Of The Lord
White Raiment Aka Good Character
So That The Shame Of His Nakedness
Be Not Exposed!

An Uplifted Self
Lowers The Lord!

BUT
The Uplifted Lord

Is He
Who Secures For The Lifter
The Prize Of The Great Reward!

When We Put Self
In Its Perfect Place
When Trials Come
We Do Not Have To Run
Scramble
Hide

AND 
Become Snide
Attacking All
To Protect Self's Reputation
For
We Know In Whom It Is
That We Are Hidden!

Humble Yourself
Under The Mighty Hand Of God
And ... At The Appointed Time
He Will Lift You Up!

Remember Saul ... Pride AND Greed!
Remember Satan ... Pride AND Greed!
Remember Absalom ... Pride AND Greed!
AND
Ananias And Sapphira
Seeking For A Reputation
Lied To The Holy Spirit
AND
To Death
Became Sure Victims!

There Was Absolutely No Need! 

A Title Written In Sand
Is A Title
That Will Be
By The Cruel Wind
Blown!
The Title Written
On The Rock Of Ages
Will Cause The Title-Holder
- In The Fulness Of Time -
To Stand In Peace
Glorified
Immortalized
Before The Holy God's Throne!

Choose You This Day
Whom You Shall Serve
The God Of Personal Reward
Or
The Living Holy God

In Whom Is No Fraud!

Think ... And Consider
Consider ... And Act
Act ... Upon The Truth
The Living Word Of God
AND
Save Yourselfself A World Of Hurt
AND
You Will Sure Disaster

- From Yourself - 
Divert!

Listen! Listen!
I Have The Best Title Ever!

Do You Mean To Tell Me ...!

Stop! Stop! Stop!
My Title Is:

Child Of God!

Oh.
