Are Black Men Being Feminized? If So Why Then Is The Black Church Being Silent?

Image
Reader good Wednesday morning to you all, I'm praying everyone reading this have a wonderful and marvelous day on today lets make it great in Jesus precious name. Words can often speak life, or evoke destruction.  It is not an accident to hear and see the image of Black Men and Black Boys being dehumanized, slandered, feminized, emasculated, demonized and examined under a microscope.  From the onesie to the online talk of rompers for men., the question now remains, are black men being feminized?  Is there an assault on the black man’s manhood? 

What If God Doesn’t Send Your Boaz?

Image
Reader, this is a really good read.   "I'm waiting on my Boaz, "Boaz where are thou?" God send Boaz to me", I'm preparing myself for Boaz", Is something I see on my timeline daily from my single saved sisters wanting to get married.  Well, I got news for you like the author of the article alluded to Boaz ain't coming for you, why? Because Boaz is Ruth's man and God will never send you something that doesn't belong to you.

Do We Now Have Bishops Who Do Not Consider "shacking" a sin???

Image
R eader,  the number of men and women shacking up is on the rise like never before. Accelerating the already progress of evil.  I would like to mention beforehand that if the church ministers had taken the word of God at face value and cried out against sin in and out of season since the bible days men and women would not be living under the same roof unmarried fearing that they would die in the very act of fornication. In the Black church, we know and speak of it as "shacking". We are taught that when you have a testimony of salvation than for you shacking becomes a sin.

R eader good Wednesday morning to you all, I'm praying everyone that is reading this has a marvelous and wonderful day on today, let's make it great in Jesus precious name. I've heard about the many that pretend to be able to communicate with the dead.  They hold sĂ©ances and try to get in touch with the deceased in order to have their family or friends communicate with them.  They desire to ask them a question, see what’s on the other side, where they are at, and so forth.  The fact is that if they indeed do communicate with anyone in the spirit world, it is an evil spirit for the Bible states that “the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing; they have no further reward, and even the memory of them is forgotten” (Eccl 9:5). A question c an we communicate with the dead?  Is this possible according to the Bible?  Should Christians be trying to communicate with the dead? I asked these questions because there seems to be a new trend taking place in our

When she came back, Houston's first openly gay mayor and the Montrose Center put their heads together to begin brainstorming how they could find the funds and support to build a similar housing facility in Houston.

Why Did Bishop Jakes Make The Statement Churches Have Become 'Prostitutes to Politics'??

Image
R eader, I'm revisiting Bishop Jakes panel discussion "The Polemics of Politics and the Pulpit" at his Pastors and Leadership Conference last month.  I think Bishop Jakes was right about church leadership jumping in bed with politicians and blurring the line of separation of church and state. He correctly stated that we Christians don't agree 100% with either party, so we should not allow them to use us to garner votes one way or the other. Jesus is neither Democrat or Republican. Anybody that thinks so needs to have their eyes examined.

Bishop Earl Carter Interviews Benjamin Jimerson-Phillips, The Illegitimate Son Of The (Late) COGIC Presiding Bishop JO Patterson.

Image
R eader, a couple of days ago Bishop J.O.Patterson illegitimate son had granted Bishop Earl Carter an interview, in which now he's having to come behind and clarify some things. The show was to be about his book & its connection to Oprah and the Greenleaf Series. Benjamin said that he know why Dr. Carter needed to identify him as J.O. Patterson's son for the story to even make sense. However, he certainly didn't want to get into all the name-calling that took place.   Many of you by now are aware of the interview I did with Dr. Earl Carter 3 days ago. While I am very appreciative of Dr. Carter for allowing me a voice through his program. And I knew what I was doing when I did the show Because Dr. Carter is known for his abrasive style. Still, I was disheartened by a few things that took place during the interview... Things that I felt were unnecessary.  Check it out below:

R eader, good Wednesday morning I'm praying everyone has a marvelous and wonderful day on today let's make it great in Jesus name. Even  secular artist Kendrick Lamar thinks that today  churches are watering down  their messages. If your church makes you feel good every single Sunday and you never walk out feeling convicted of your sin, then you are getting sugared water down preaching and it will damn your soul in the end. I really like this pattern of secular musicians being open about their relationship with God, Kanye, chance, and now Kendrick.
