(ThyBlackMan.com) Though there are notable exceptions, my life experience suggests that people with a lot of power and money have trouble trusting their fate to anything else. Of course, this is what Christ’s encounter with the wealthy ruler (Luke 18:18-23, compare with similar account in Mark 10:17-31)) leads us to expect. ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) The American Left is giddy about Oprah running for president in 2020. White America naively thought electing a black president would end them being called racist. Obama and his minions used his skin-color as a bludgeon to beat into submission and silence anyone who opposed him behaving as our king; ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) Christians often tell me that they’re following the word of God as prescribed in the Bible, and as we all know, they say, the Bible is the word of God. We know that for a fact because the Bible says it’s the word of God in no uncertain terms. . ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) I often hear people say, “I am more spiritual than religious”. Unfortunately, that saying has reached the level of cliché. ‘Spirituality’ is the profound sense of connection one receives through an interaction with a power greater than us.

(ThyBlackMan.com) Recently on CNN I heard Franklin Graham say that we all are sinners. His comment reminded me how many people have played into, believed and been deceived by a false doctrine – a doctrine that neither Christ nor the New Covenant nor the New Testament promotes nor supports.

(ThyBlackMan.com) I remember back in the day, hearing ministers preach that it was “Heaven or Hell”. Well, that was, and still is, not true. Also, certain ones used to state that people went to Heaven when they died. That also was false. Let’s start with the “Heaven or Hell”. Yes, the ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) In terms of Earth years, how old is Yehovah? If you say that Yehovah goes back to infinity, then how far back does infinity go? Think about that for a while. Think of how many other creations Yehovah created before He decided to create our universe. When He did, beginning ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) I read an article recently which details the astonishing drop in church attendance on the part of American blacks, especially young Millennials. The reasons cited are quite familiar: the chasm between one’s intellectual integrity and one’s faith; the church’s stated mission has become stagnant and outdated; the church is perceived ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) In order to complete this series with this segment, a follow-up series will be written called “The Truth of Genesis: Final Disposition of Mankind”.
