Slide 3
My primary thesis is to affirm the biblical testimony of the equality of all men by exploring the glorious past of the people, who are considered in the modern world as the most unequal.
My work is to challenge the modern prejudice mindset of the inferiority of blacks that has so dominated the post-Christian culture. And by historical empirical testimonies and tangible evidence affirm that those whom we now call the black “race” are the inventors of civilization; the arts and sciences being their first-born – as it were. Showing that they were the original rulers, politicians, writers, architects, astronomers, physicians, philosophers, philanthropists , artists, musicians, miners and inventors should by God’s providence shatter the prejudice pillars that the current western world relentlessly feeds on. My observation and personal experience has taught me that people of African descent do not know where they belong because they don’t know who they were. Hopefully the recovery of a lost heritage should bring some light to our paths.
We will also see that God decreed and foretold by his prophets, the present humiliation and insignificance of people of African descent.
We will conclude with the fact that far from them being inferior to western society (ancient and modern), by the image of God mostly revealed in
the black man in history; he led mankind to
the subduing of the earth for the benefit of mankind and to glory of God.
Slide 4
My secondary thesis is the exploration of the truth that God gives grace to the humble and resistance to the proud.
In other words; man is the king of the earth and the black man was the king of mankind, as he ruled and invented in the image and to the glory of God. But being brought down by pride and lack of praise to the God of gods for his most honorable position in the race of man, the same God that gives grace and glory has brought him to the lowest of human dignity and glory in the modern world. The glory of the wisdom, grace and holiness of God being greatly manifest in the history of “The Sleeping Giant”, through a people called “Ethiopians”.
Slide 5; Joseph McCabe
The accident of the predominance of white men in modern times should not…persuade us to listen to superficial theories about the innate superiority of the white-skinned man. Four thousand years ago, when civilization was one or two thousand years old, white men were just a bunch of semi-savages on the outskirts of the civilized world. If there had been anthropologists in Crete, Egypt, and Babylon, they would have pronounced the white race obviously inferior and might have discoursed learnedly on… the glands of colored (or black) folk.
