The Bible

When we were brought into slavery as a nation on both sides of the Atlantic. Our enemies thought they had ended the history and hope of the Israelites by systematically eliminating our means of self-education and cultural preservation.
They did this by destroying our schools and universities, burning our places of worship, and the break up of our governmental institution and civic norms. They even separated us form our mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, and other close relatives to assure our isolation and inability to transfer any sense of familiarity and cultural continuance. Our enslavement seemed sealed before our oppressor and the nations of the world.
 But to make certain of this, they introduce a process of reeducation. The slave holder, which included the highest levels of government, the clergy, the educator, the slave master and his family and staff, with the power of the police and military forces, began to teach the Hebrew slaves their new identity as property of the state and people. The government supported the slave masters methods of enslavement by enacting laws that insured the slave would be a slave for life such as, the fugitive salve act of 1850 and the supreme curt decision of Plessey vs. Ferguson in 1896. The school system began to teach and continues to teach that the Americas were populated by a nomadic people who cross the Bering Strait in the ice age and possessing no true culture or history until Christopher Columbus sailed across the Atlantic discovering them and naming them Indians. As for the Jews of Africa, the educators confessed that the were and are still ignorant of African history, calling it a "dark continent." Yet, they teach it was inhabited by savages who had, as above, no history or civilization worthy of recognition. The clergies of the many Christian denominations taught that the religion of the Indians was a religion of demon worship, cannibalism, and human sacrifice. As for the African, they stressed that their belief's were not much better than the Indians. To the church, they were witches, heathens, and devotees to superstitions. They even went further by changing the image of God, Christ, and the angles to make themselves appear as the people of the Holy Scriptures. The church twisted the scriptures to fit their system of oppression and taught it to the slaves. These, however, were all lies to justify their involvement in genocide and racketeering and to appease their guilty consciences. This body of institutions of oppression were confirmed and affirmed by the use of brute force, as exercised by the overseer on the plantations, the military in suppression of slave rebellions, and the use of a police state in the cities and communities of the descendants of the Hebrews today.
To some extent, the mindset desired by the oppressor has taken hold among the Hebrew slaves as they face the same challenges generation after generation. Nevertheless, what the oppressor fail to realize is that they were being used by God to fulfill His word written in the very Bible he was using in his churches. God had predicted ages ago, when He brought the children of Israel out of Egyptian slavery that because they would eventually sin against Him that He would scatter them into all nations. And among these nations they would find no peace but cruel oppression, with the last oppressor being the greatest of all. And this is because God would use him the bring evil to it's perfection. This last oppressor would be a master of intrigue, skilled in understanding times and seasons, a master of sciences and the arts of evil to the point of deceiving all nations. He would use his power to test and destroy the people of God and any who follow them regardless if they were Jews or not until the end comes. But, God blinded him to the truth of the scriptures and the fate awaiting him. He made him believe in his own power.
The oppressors clergy and religious institution also were deceived. They too believe that the Israelites were a people forgotten and cast off of God. What they failed to notice with all their study of the Bible, and in their schools of religious education, is that the word of God is not of this world. It is a spirit: it is a spiritual document. It is truth emanating from the Creator of the atom of the universe. It can not be measured, or categorized, or numbered, for it is a living breathing spirit. And His word was imprinted unto the hearts and minds of His people before the foundations of the world. It is a part of their DNA. It is the substance that cannot be seen, nor erased form any of them that belong to Him. The slave ship, the overseer's whip, the bullet of the police, nor the miseducation of the schools and churches, or the covert and overt government polices, not even death itself can remove it. The Word of God is love itself living in the people called by His name-His princes and princess: the Israel of God. This spiritual imprinting is triggered as soon as His people open the Book,  and seek Him with all their heart, mind, and soul for themselves. It is a mnemonic device God has placed in them, that when they hear the word they turn to God again and follow Him.

"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me (John 10:27)"

Immortal

I know that someday we will be among the free;
The liberated ones.
Those whom death cannot take hold of.
The power of death is shattered before them.
One day my change will come,
my transformation
from man to supernatural to immortal.

Israelite Redemption,
Zarach

Star

A billion stars
distant planets
way up in the sky
places where angels live
traveling to and fro
marching up and down the universe
wherever God sends them.
I can see all the stars
and the planets above
from where I stand.
One day, I too
will rise above the clouds
me and all my holy brothers
standing before the Lord of Eternity.

Shalam,
Zarach
