Unrighteous, Ungodly and Unbiblical Distinctions
By Blake Higginbotham
As I write to this topic, I realize it will not be fully embraced or understood by everyone. However, no one reading this article with an open heart and mind will be able to deny that it speaks to real life issues that we all face on a daily basis. I also realize that I am not the only one who is writing to these issues, and probably will not be the last author who dares to take on the problem of racism, prejudice and religious segregation in the world. To be honest with you, the only way that these things will ever change, is for all of us deal in truth with our own hearts concerning them, and be willing to engage this cultural and spiritual conflict as real agents of change. I assure you, that if you choose to honestly pursue a workable solution to these problems, that you will be excoriated by a barrage of ablative reactions. You must remember that dealing in truth and integrity is never easy, and it certainly does not always produce a desired result. However, truth is the only reality that has the power to produce real and lasting change in our lives.
The reason that I am taking up this banner and accepting this challenge is because on more than one occasion, I have seen and heard demonic drivel oozing out of the mouths of people that I know personally, as well as people who are supposed to be the sons of Yahweh. Regretfully, I have also been forced to endure some of this corrupt communication from people with whom I am acquainted, and with whom I have some level of relationship. Now, I am not talking about things spoken in jest or frivolity. I am talking about things that are said, and actions that are taken, that are purely motivated by racial bigotry, or deeply rooted in gender and religious prejudice. I am talking about unrighteous, ungodly and unbiblical distinctions that all of us make, and the walls, barriers and boundaries that all of us erect and defend with our very lives.
Now, I know, that you think that racism, prejudice and religious segregation are issues from which true believers have been liberated; but I want you to know that you are sadly mistaken, and I am going to expose the tentacles and residue that has ensnared and corrupted all us at one time or another.
In the past few months and since election-day, I have encountered more racism, prejudice and religious segregation than at any time in recent memory, and while my opinions and positions concerning the outcome of the election of Barak Obama to the Presidency still stand, none of my objections had anything to do with him or his family personally, and after closer examination of my own heart, had nothing to do with him being the first black president of the United States of America. I hope that you know that I am bigger and better than that. At any rate, it really does not matter to me whether you believe me or not. My political persuasions and patriotic positions are of no concern to you now, or in the future and they certainly should not be cause for you to separate or distance yourself from me.
With that said, whoever I supported and for whom I voted is my prerogative, and it was based entirely on what I am going to share with you next. I did not vote for John McCain or Sarah Palin because they represented the best Christian choice. However, I did vote for them based on an informed decision concerning their ability to govern this nation in a more righteous way, while representing the policies, values and interest that I believe to be important to Yahweh and this country. John McCain had the experience and the backbone to fly in the face of the politico, and I believe that he would have stood his ground with the Washington Mafia. He also knows what is at stake if we weaken our defenses now, and soften our position concerning terrorist enemy nations. All one has to do is honestly look at what has already happened in Mumbai, India and with Israel since the announcement of Barak Obama’s election. The truth is that Hamas sees Barak Obama’s position as weak and tolerant. The terrorists that sought out and killed hundreds of people in several upscale hotels in Mumbai, India were looking for American and English tourist to kill. They were taking advantage of the opportunity to exploit our exposed backsides because we elected a President that is weak on defense, and soft on dealing with terrorist and other international threats. If that is not enough, it became clear to me that the power behind politics (high finance), bought and paid for this election. They also controlled the press in a way that Barak Obama was actually given a free ride to the White House, long before our votes were cast and tabulated. Barak Obama, also played the race card by building his political platform on the false hopes of the under privileged and less fortunate.
By pointing out, and capitalizing on the pain and suffering of all of the struggling and immature people of this country, he mesmerized and brainwashed his followers with rhetoric that appealed to their desperate needs and desires. All of that and much more represents the corrupting power of money and the diabolical forces that are steering this country in the wrong direction. The more power that “we the people” give to the government by abdication or default, the more personal freedom and liberty we will lose. The total collapse of this economy, as well as the downfall of this Nation is foreseeable within the next few years if something does not change. Within the next two years constitutional governance, the right of self determination, with the pursuit of happiness could be taken from us. The American dream is at stake; but much more than that is being threatened. As I speak, the false hope and the Obama doctrine are conditioning this generation to accept the idea of a new day, new era, and the coming one world government. With that one world government, there will emerge a world leader who will appear to be a savior and anointed one. The choice is yours, will you rise up now and embrace your destiny, or will you be numbered amongst the hundreds of millions who will be totally dependent upon the government to bail them out. Will you now forsake your religious agendas and become sons, or will you fall prey to the spirit of the Anti-Messiah and be damned. Your religion will not save you in this hour. Our only hope is in Yahshua and our ability to continue to hear and obey the voice of the Spirit. Yahweh, help and keep us. If you are following religious leaders who are telling you that now that Barak Obama has been elected that everything is going to get better and finally be alright, my advice to you, is grab you bible and your family, and escape while you can because the day is coming when the church that you are a part of will be under government scrutiny and control and the man behind that pulpit will be bought and paid for by the same people that got Barak Obama elected.
With that said, I could refer to the famous statement that former President Ronald Reagan said, “Mr. Gorbachev, Tear Down Those Walls” but I believe that it would be more appropriate to refer to Mercy Me’s song, “I Can Only Imagine”
I can only image what it would be like if there was no racism, prejudice and religious segregation in the world; but in reality, there is no American, African, Indian, Russian or Chinese Church. There is only one Ekklesia and house that Yahshua is building.
Yahshua said, “I will build My house (Ekklesia) and the gates of Hell (Hades) shall not prevail against it.” With that said, He is not constructing His own private residence, or establishing His own personal work. On the contrary, He is building His Father’s house. He also said, “In My Father’s house are many dwelling places” and “My Father’s house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations.” We are family of Yahweh. We are the many-membered corporate Son, and the Glory bringing hope to the world. We are the covenant seed of Yahweh, the last generation, and the one new man.
In realty, there is no White, Black, Brown, Red, or Yellow Church. As a matter of fact, we are all a part of the human race and His creation. We have been made alive, raised and sat down together in Him. We are eating of the same body and drinking of the same blood that was shed for all mankind. In Him we are one Ethnos and the blood of the everlasting covenant has inexorably joined us together. The life and blood of the Father flows through our veins as we become the manifest expression of His Glorified Son in the Earth. This is a new day and new era. This is the uprising and shining forth to the Son. Glory to Yahweh!
Acts 17:26-28 And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings, 27 so that they should seek Yahweh, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us; 28 for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also His offspring.’
Ephesians 4:1-6 I, therefore, the prisoner of Yahshua, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, 2 with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, 3 endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling; 5 one Sovereign, one faith, one baptism; 6 one Elohim and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
