Letting go of past errors is difficulty for some, but necessary. When we let go, it opens new levels of growth and possibilities. Sometimes holding on to our own ways, half truths, and ideas that produce more harm than good only keep us in a low state.
We have been many error by our past teachers. For example, that Christ and the Israelites are Europeans or of Greek and Roman descent; that the black Jews of Africa, Spain, and the rest of the world were all white people; that the prophecies in the Bible are all fulfilled and God is no longer working in our current history. We have been taught by the missionaries that as followers of Christ our only duty is to love and not to concern ourselves with the events of the world and where we fit in in the world as a unique individual and people. Our teachers also taught us that Christ only belongs to the Israelites and not the nations, and many such things. They taught these error either out of malicious intent or out of ignorance. But, we must move on, separating ourselves from errors. By broadening your understanding and moving away from errors, Growth and development is achieved. The Bible states that a wise man will hear and increase in learning, but a foolish person will reject wise counsel ( Prov.9:9, Prov. 1:7). It is our duty then, as believers, to study and learn the truth ( 2 Tim. 2:15), to prove all things weather it is true or false( 1 Thess. 5:21), to test all things by the spirit of God(1 John 4:1); which is His word- "the words I speak unto you, they are spirit( John 6:63)").
In order for us to continue to develop as a people in our faith and have impact in our society, we must be willing to let go of past errors and misunderstandings. We can do this by going back to the source of our faith, which is the Holy Bible (Rom. 15:4, 1 Cor. 10:11, Is. 30:8, Jer. 30:2, Deut. 17:18,19). Go back and do as God says do- "seek ye out of the book of the Lord, and read ( Is. 34:16)." Reading the book for ourselves will help us see the development of our history. It will reveal how we came from the other side of the flood and grew into a multitude of peoples. It will show the history from Abraham, to the twelve fathers, to a nation spreading all over the old world-calling many to the faith. And it will show the progression through the ages of both Israel and the nations, moving along to the other side of the Atlantic.
When we read, we will come face to face with the God of prophecy, who rules in all nations in order to bring about his divine kingdom on earth( Dan. 2:20,21,22, Dan. 4:17). Reading the Bible ourselves will help us see God's movement throughout history in order to face the enemy of all mankind: Satan. It was this spiritual demon that initiates the collapse of the kingdom of Adam and ushered in our current state of chaos, which started immediately after the fall of our first father Adam. You will see, when you read, God's intention to end all evil and bring mankind back into faith with Himself again. God designed the events of history to lead up to the birth and life-work of His Messiah, Jesus of Nazareth. And that at the completion of Christ's work a new era was ushered in, wherein all who sided with him were counted among the saints of God and all who refused him or twisted his message were on the side of evil.
And as we continue to read the saga of our times, we will come to understand that in the end God intends to meet those who belong to the evil one face to face in the final war in the land of Israel. This is the war of Armageddon, as stated in the Bible. It will be a decisive moment in history, when God will become evident to all the world by His physical presence and actions. To those of us who have faith in the Bible and seek to understand the truth of it, that day will be a confirmation of our beliefs and hope. But, if we hold on to half truths, misunderstandings, and our own ideas about the Bible, that day will be a shock and dissolution only( 2 Thess. 2:11,12). We will be just as those who hold to the side of the evil one. It will be to us and them as Christ said, " For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth(Luke 21:35)"- read Luke 21:34-36. Therefore, brethren, I urge you, reconsider what you've been taught thus far and ask yourself, does it match what the Bible says? If not, let it go and open the book of the Lord and read it for yourself-seek the truth(2 Thess. 2:13).
And to help you avoid errors also, do what our master teacher, Christ, taught us- ask God to reveal to you what you don't understand through His Holy Spirit, and by the use of the holy scriptures- 2 Tim.2:7, Phil. 3:15, 1 Cor. 2:7,8,9,10,11, Gal. 1:11,12, John 16:12,13,14, 1 John 2:20,21, 24,25,26,27,28,29.

Let No Man Take Your Crown
Revelation 3:11
"Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown."
Ask yourself, what is it that you have? Think about this. It's not referring to the worldly possessions we have in this physical world, but something more eternal.
What we have as true believers of the gospel is our faith, the gifts of the Holy Spirit, the revelation of the mysteries of God, the understanding of the beginning of time, the middle of time, and the end of time, we have the sure hope of the kingdom of God and Christ, we have the confidence that comes with faith, the power to overcome adversity, the ability to love when everything says love is dead, we have the gift of laughter and joy in the midst of pain, because we know him who said, "I will rise you up again, thou you fall seven times." God has given us a tongue for our reward, which none of our enemies can defeat. He has given us His word, which the world cannot overthrow; it rises in each and every generation of the believers to condemn the wicked and justify the just. We have the truth of who we are: the Children of Israel, the Children of God. We have each others, even when we are far apart- our spirits is present, so that not even death can not separate us from the love we have for each others. We have the messages of our teachers and prophets given to us by God written in the text of the holy scriptures- that says to us, " I have endeavored, with all diligence, that after I am gone, you may have this message with you always( 2 Peter1:15)." And again, " lo, I am with you till the end of the World(Matt.28:20)." We who have believe God, hold unto what we have in God and put no confidence in the flesh or this world, which is rapidly vanishing away.
And though some men may try to prevent us form entering into the blessed hope of God in Christ by lies, twisted truth, and the seductions of this worldly realm, we refuse to be drawn away from the love of Christ and God. As Satan attempted to draw Christ away ( Matt. 4:1-10) from God by lies and seduction, so his angels try the same with us daily. But, we like Christ withstand them with the word and the power of God's Holy Spirit. We know the voice of our shepherd and we follow Him, other voices we will not follow.
We are waiting for the promise of the end. We are waiting for the prophecy of the rise of the tribes of Jacob and the gathering of the people from among the nations that belong to God. We are waiting for the message of the final gospel to be sounded around the globe by the last prophets, the 144,000 of the 12 tribes of Israel. Because we know that to them was give the final message by Christ ( Rev. 14:1-13). This is what God has given to us. And this is our crown, and we will not let any man take it from us.

Worship in Spirit and Truth
Is our faith dependent on a leader, church, or school for us to worship God through Christ? Some would say yes, it is a requirement to be a part of a church body or organized school. This they recommend for several reasons, such as to fellowship with fellow believers, learning the word of God, and to pray together. These are all correct reasons based on scripture to congregate ( Heb, 10:24-25, Rom. 10:14, Matt. 18:19-20). But this relate to the true body of Christ. Those who worship God in spirit and truth. The current Christianity is a blend of paganism and the scriptures with white supremacy and other movements are mostly the doctrine of men and not God. We are not commanded by God to join any of these organizations, rather we are warned to depart from them and not to let them deceive us in any way (Matt. 24:4,5).
The idea that without a specific place or leader( other than Christ) we are not true followers of God or Christ is a fallacy commonly used by many deceivers, who seek to manipulate others with fear tactics and guilt to bring them into their schools of thoughts and belief systems. They skillfully twist the scripture to make the listener feel that they must be dependent on a place or a preacher or a specific congregation in order to have access to God and Christ. This can be seen in some Hebrew Israelite schools, churches, and religious cults, who manipulate the truth to gain followers. They are like the ancient Pharisees and early cult leader of the first century, who skillfully distorted the holy scriptures by teaching half truths in order to make personal disciples out of their followers for their money and whatever pleasure they may obtain from the labors and bodies. These are not the ministers of Christ, but teachers of their own evil and twisted desires.
They that hold to this way of thinking refuse to acknowledge that God is the author and continuer of all faith, who must be worshiped in spirit and truth. And that this faith is initiated in each individual first and not in a collective body. Thus it is the responsibility of each individual to be convince in himself of the supremacy of God in his own life and in the universe. Then the believer must continue to grow his faith with the help of the Holy Spirit- how is the primary teacher of all believers. No mention is made of having to belong to a church or specific group for faith to be established. Hence, this is why Christ stressed to the Samaritan woman that she will not worship God in her holy mountain or at Jerusalem, but in the spirit of her mind in agreement with the truth of God- his holy word. The worship of God is not dependent of a build, place, or man( as in religious leaders), but by a sincere mind towards God according to the scriptures( Acts 17:24,25).
This is also why we have always been warned by the prophets, Christ, and the apostles to seek out the truth and prove all things first with the Bible and not to believe everyone who call themselves ministers of God and Christ (Acts 17:11). If they are not in agreement with the teaching Bible, then have nothing to do with them- leave them alone, they are blind leaders of the blind per Christ( Matt. 15:13,14).
Furthermore, Paul, at the close of his ministery warned the people about the coming era of false preachers and wolves(greedy men) taking over the followers of Christ to build their own followings ( Acts 20:29,30,31). Even John wrote of these men calling them Anti-Christ, who claim to be Christians or disciples of Christ but are far remove from the teachings and doctrines of Christ ( 1 John 2:18,19). If they were truly the disciples of Christ they would have continued with the teachings of Christ and living as he commanded per John. But, instead they have established there own movements and doctrines, blending paganism with the Bible and using the Bible as a tool of oppression. These the Holy Spirit also called, through Paul, false apostles, the ministers of Satan, who pretend to be ministers of righteousness( 1 Cor. 11:13,14,15). And they shall be judged for their deceptions according to the scriptures.
We how desire to follow God in truth by His Son must use wisdom and not allow ourselves to be deceived or manipulated by any man, church, or school-just as Christ warned would come the last days(Matt.24:4,5). We must always assess them by what the scriptures say- comparing spiritual things with spiritual things(1 John 4:). If they speak or do not do according to the word of God, having nothing to do with them, say Isaiah (Is. 8:20). If their seed or teaching produce the worship of false gods disguise as Christ and the apostle, as in the Catholic and Protestant church traditions and holidays, or the encouragement to hating the nations that believe if the God of Israel because they are not of Israel, then you must distance yourself from them, because this is not what the scriptures says. Do not desire to worship with them or wish them God speed, for then you would be an accomplice to their errors( 2 Cor. 6:14-18, 2 John 1:10,11).
It is better to sit alone and wait for the hope of God in these last days, as the prophet Jeremiah did in the days of Israel's apostasy long ago ( Jer. 15: 16,17). He refused to follow the madness of the people, but instead held on to the Holy scripture, believing what God had said and taught him by His Holy Spirit. God will not leave of comfortless. He has promised to come to our rescue and deliver us for the darkness of the last days( John 14:18). He has promised to raise up His true prophets and teachers. And we will have to choose in that day who we will believe the prophecy of the Bible or the teachings of current world order (Rev. 7:3,4, Jer. 3:15, Rev. 14:6-12).

God of our Black Fathers
From the dawning of the light
over the mountains of Babylon
over the Euphrates
and
along the Jordan
we took our journey
following your light in the sky
You sent your terror before us
and warned them saying:
" ...Touch not my anointed, and do my prophets no harm ( Ps. 105: 13,14,15)."
Kings quaked at our entrance at the gates,
dread filled their hearts and minds
because of the Hebrews:
mystic, the natural, a strange people, seers of the fourth dimension,
conversant with the God of the sky.

Bid the Black Christ be Born!
Mary, where is your child? Your Children?
Look up to the sky
count the stars if you can,
the endless stars
Mary, where are your children?
Off in distant lands
So far from home
away from their native land
Oh, Mary, dry your tears.
This bread of adversity wont be long
Look up to the sky
hold your belly
watch the star,
the one we've waited for
all these long years
Oh, Mother of our Black Messiah!
