'"He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not hurt of the second death." Revelation 2:10-11
I am an OVERCOMER! PTL!
I was in prison! I was in a low dungeon, enslaved, made miserable enough to contemplate suicide, and MURDER! I praise you LORD for saving me.
I hope and pray no one, not one person has to suffer the way the Walters family was made to suffer.
Jesus said;"Let the dead, bury the the dead." The dead in spirit. Dead thinkers , dead dummies , dumb enough to volunteer to go back to segregation, to vacuousness . Empty vessels, loud clamorous talking heads.
"Come ye out from among them."
You want to deface and tear down a mountain! Have you ever read? Did you know that the Civil War was not fought to free one single slave? The CSA (Confederate Sates of America) started the war, shot first, took Fort Sumpter.
Abraham Lincoln did not like black people, refused to accept black soldiers until he realized there was no way he could win without them. Did you know that old uncle Abe planned to send every black in this country back to Africa? Research the establishment of Liberia.
Did you know that Native Americans and blacks also owned slaves? Did you know fully 92% of whites in the south never owned one single slave? They were much to expensive. Did you know that the "Peculiar Institution" created poverty in the south? Slaves took all of the jobs. Slaves did everything, metal work, cobblers, blacksmiths, barbers, tanners, etc.
Did you know slaves looked down on "Po'white trash". Part of the animosity between former slaves and whites stems from the "hoity-toity" attitude slaves had regarding people they actually felt better than. A slave owned by a wealthy white plantation owner carried status.
"I's quality nigger!" Slaves bragged and certainly considered themselves better than "crackers". The "po'white trash crackers " were relegated to the poorest land in the Appalachian mountains. Ate squirrels, possums, they had nothing but white skin.
They were used, had to be "Paddy Rollers" , slave catchers, and overseers. There were few white overseers because the master observed that a black overseer was far more cruel than a white one.
Any way the rich white man that had "hogged" all the wealth gave the poor white man nothing but pride in his color. Of course the poor white man defended that system, that medieval, manor with serfs, called slaves. Of course he wanted it. But unfortunately the economic system of chattel slavey caused great economic hardship. He was never going to get it. The same way we are never going to get "it" now. We are dividing and squabbling while 1-5% percent of the population takes 99-95% of the wealth. "Divide and conquer" has never failed, it always works.
It was a rich man's war a poor man's fight. It is still that way today. The poor man goes off and fights the rich man's wars. The rich get richer and the dumb get dumber.
America, you should know, students are being pushed out of school without any required reading. It is obvious. Few people read, even fewer actually study. Help us LORD!
PTL!
I press on ...
