Jesus Was A Black Man by bigfrancis21: 11:22pm On Feb 17, 2015 |
It is time for the black race to rise and claim what is theirs. History has been distorted extensively to downplay the contributions of the black people to humanity and ancient power of the black race. This article is on the distorted fact about the physical characteristics of Jesus Christ, the man who is said to have walked the eart some 2000 years ago. The bible is silent as to the race or skin colouration of Jesus Christ but it left enough allegory to the physical characteristics of Jesus in several verses of the bible that indicates the Jesus may have been a black man, and not the white, blonde-haired, blue-eyed Jesus that many have been made to believe. In the first place, the image of a white-skinned, blonde haired, blue-eyed Jesus is totally untrue given that modern-day Jews (for the sake of debunking that myth) who are middle-eastern in origin and have dark hair, dark eyes and tanned skins. Here are verses from the bible that indicate the actual physical characteristics of Jesus: 1) Revelation 1:15 ESV His feet were like burnished bronze, refined in a furnace , and his voice was like the roar of many waters. To start with, for those unfamiliar with the word or metal 'bronze', the colour of bronze is brown. ![]() When bronze is heated at high temperatures in a furnace, it turns further darker brown. Below is an image of a burnished bronze coloured foot: [img]http://santatizing.files./2013/05/bronze-feet.jpg[/img] Below is an image of bronze after being burned and refined in a fire: ![]() The feet of a caucasian or middle-eastern origin man spending some days in the desert would look like this: [img]http://santatizing.files./2013/05/feet-sandals.jpg[/img] The colour of his feet is no where or close to the colour of bronze, before or after being heated in a furnace. The arabic/middle-eastern people of Egypt today who live in a hot desert climate with temperature as high as 44c in July/August are merely 'tanned' in their skin complexion and are nowhere close in complexion to the colour of burnished bronze. For if Jesus of the bible was of middle eastern origin, the colour of his feet had to be ascribed the colour of ivory, which is an off-white colour or some other colour resembling a middle-easterner. Negroid people are known to turn blacker in the presence of extended living in hot sunshine due to the natural production of Melanin. Jesus, just like other Negorids, had to have been, at least, brown-skinned, in the first place. 2) Revelation 1:13-14 ESV And in the midst of the lampstands one like a son of man, clothed with a long robe and with a golden sash around his chest. The hairs of his head were white, like white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire. Of all races, only the black man's hair when grown resembles wool. The hair of asiatic/european peoples are known to be long, flowy and wavy. Below is an image of wool: ![]() Below is a picture of a black man wearing his naturally 'wooly' hair in texture and white in colour: ![]() Meanwhile this is the so-called image of Jesus Christ being paraded worldwide having 'blonde' hair (meanwhile the bible says his hair was 'white' in colour), wavy and long (and the bible says it was 'wooly' in texture). You see how the distortion of facts have been subtly made for hundred of years that they are now believed to be true? ![]() 3) Isaiah 53:2 ESV For he grew up before him like a young plant, and like a root out of dry ground; he had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him. 4) Daniel 10:5-6 ESV I lifted up my eyes and looked, and behold, a man clothed in linen, with a belt of fine gold from Uphaz around his waist. His body was like beryl, his face like the appearance of lightning, his eyes like flaming torches, his arms and legs like the gleam of burnished bronze, and the sound of his words like the sound of a multitude. In this verse, not only were the feet of Jesus ascribed to be bronze-like in colour but his entire legs and arms. The last time I checked the human leg is the lower-body portion extending from the hip bone that includes the feet and thighs and the arms are the upper limbs of the body extending from the shoulder region to the hands. This verse describes the arms and legs of Jesus to be like burnished bronze and we all know that the legs and arms of any body bears the same colour as his entire body, which indicates that Jesus was a black man. Not just once but multiple times in the bible were the feet of Jesus Christ been ascribed to be brown or bronze-coloured by different men of the bible. 5) Genesis 49:10-12 ESV The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor the ruler's staff from between his feet, until tribute comes to him; and to him shall be the obedience of the peoples. Binding his foal to the vine and his donkey's colt to the choice vine, he has washed his garments in wine and his vesture in the blood of grapes. His eyes are darker than wine, and his teeth whiter than milk. The bible in this verse gives the actual colour of Jesus' eyes to be darker than wine. While dark eyes is common to every race, this particular verse debunks the image of a blue-eyed Jesus Christ that has infiltrated the world for hundreds of years. ![]() 6) Daniel 7:9 ESV “As I looked, thrones were placed, and the Ancient of Days took his seat; his clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was fiery flames; its wheels were burning fire. Another bible verse indicating the hair texture and colour of Jesus' hair. ![]() 7) 1 Corinthians 11:14 ESV Does not nature itself teach you that if a man wears long hair it is a disgrace for him, Here is a bible verse opposing the wearing of long hair as 'disgrace' and as 'unnatural' which indicates that 'long hair' must have been 'unnatural' or 'uncommon' to the ancient hebrews and attempts to make their hair long by artifical means whatsoever were rebuked as 'unnatural' or going against the very natural nature of their hair being 'wooly' in texture. Note: the bible never left clues or pointers to Jesus having caucasoid/european features whatsoever. The representation of Jesus and ancient hebrews as 'whites' today became prevalent during the Renaissance period between 14th to 17th centuries, when people in arts and paintings depicting scenes from the bible were represented as 'whites', which unfortunately has stuck around since then. From bible evidence, Jesus Christ may have looked similar to this: ![]() ![]() 41 Likes 17 Shares |

The Roman Emperor, Justinian the Great, who ruled basically from 527 - 564 C.E., 500 years after the time of Yahshuah, had engraved on a coin, the image of Yahshuah with woolly / kinky hair and "BLACK" features. On the obverse side of the coin there is an image of Justinian but with straight hair. The Cambridge Encyclopedia has this particular listing about that image on the coin. ![]() "Whatever the fact, this coin, with the straight haired Justinian on the obverse side, places beyond doubt the belief that "Jesus" was a Negro (black-skinned)." In the coin image, the front side shows the image of Jesus having 'wooly' or 'kinky' hair i.e. black features, contrasting the image of Justinian on the other side showing him having long, curly and wavy hair. 18 Likes 3 Shares |

Beautiful polemics dearie. Those who wrote the gospels are definitely colour blind. Can't we make a black Jesus if it's neccessary? Emperior Justinia was not colour conscious either. Anyway, good effort Op, as we used to sing it on Pluto: he dozen mattaz if his blark or wite. 7 Likes |

@ op, are you a racist? Is the skin colour of Jesus Christ any important? If it really was, I am sure it would have been clearly penned down in the Bible. I read somewhere that not all the activities of Jesus Christ was penned in the Bible. Imagine writing down everything Jesus Christ did during his brief stay on earth. Even a duplex would not contain all the write-ups. So whatever is recorded in the Bible are things that are NECESSARY for salvation. So @op, invest more of your energies and time into carrying out the commands in the Bible as they are written and stop engaging in frivolous and mundane things like the skin colour of Jesus Christ. 51 Likes 2 Shares |

uboma: To start with, do you know what racism actually is and how it is applicable? I'd suggest you look up the meaning of that word and its applicable context for appropriate usage next time. The skin colour of Jesus Christ might be mundane to you, however, it is quite very important as it adds some level of respect and contribution of the black race to the history of man. For hundreds of years, the black race has been looked down upon, deemed inferior and as contributing nothing to the civilization of man, while the very man known to be the founder (St. Paul actually) of the most popular religion in the world, a man whom all races have come to adore and cherish was a black-skinned man. It is quite surprising to think that this very man who other, maybe 'superior', races bow down to comes from the very same people which were enslaved, inferior and considered 3/5th of a human being. Credit should be given to whom it is due. Misrepresentation of facts or knowledge is historical dishonesty. It isn't ok to say, 'ok we know the inventor was a woman however we will portray him to the world as a man'. It is pure falsity and dishonesty. The truth needs to be told. Black man wake up. The ancient Egyptians (a black people) said, 'man know thyself'. You should be able to walk heads up high knowing the place of yourself in the history of man. 111 Likes 15 Shares |

If colour doesn't matter, why then was it important for white people to make him white? do you know that white jesus was the beginning of sorrows for black people? well, if jesus is painted white, and his mother was painted white too, what colour will GOD be if God was jesus's father? what then will black signify if black is the opposite of white? That is why bleaching creams and vitamin e (which are all fake and poisonous) are a billion dollar industry in nigeria alone. do you understand the psychological trick? and besides, prophet is impossible in white people because it is impossible for them to link to or connect to or with the source, which the blackman and blackwoman can do at anytime if they are awaken. this is what the op is doing, he is ressurecting.

Again I will ask the op and his followers, is knowing the skin colour of Jesus Christ a requisite for salvation? Does it REALLY matter if Jesus Christ was (while on earth as a man) Black, Asian or White? Should this be of paramount concern to Christians? If your answers are *NO*, then don't engage me any further because I wouldn't oblige you. 7 Likes |

Isaiah 29:14 Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid. John 5:28-29 28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, 29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation. Romans 11:12 Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness? They are mentally and spiritually dead now; sleeping giants. But they will rise again: according to the promise of The Most High God. 21 Likes |

Rev 1:10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, Rev 1:11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea. Rev 1:12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; Rev 1:13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. Rev 1:14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; Rev 1:15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. This is how John in the spirit (verse10) saw Jesus. It was not only His hair that was white, but His head also. "His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow;" (verse 14) "And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace;" (verse 15) Brass or bronze burning in a furnace is a dark golden color. Tanned white people can be referred to as bronzed. "and his eyes were as a flame of fire;" (verse 14) Not a black man or a white man but a Heavenly vision. 4 Likes |

johnw74: A tanned white skin does not ever look close to bronze colour how much more a burnished bronze colour. An untanned white skin looks pinkish in colour and a tanned white skin looks rather off-colour or ivory colour. Below is an image of a person tanned on the left and untanned skin on the right: [img]http://4.bp..com/-7Na-3JK1gGg/UZ7gZ3pFGMI/AAAAAAAABuw/C-mfckFxBTw/s1600/tan-white.jpg[/img] That is how a naturally tanned white skin would look like. Even modern-day middle-eastern/arabic Egyptians and Israelites who live in torrid, very hot, desert-like temperatures of North Africa and Middle east all year round don't have their skins browned as to like bronze colour how much more burnished bronze. Below is an image of burnished bronze: ![]() No white person, no matter how tanned in the sun they may be, would have his skin colour as dark as you have it above. You had better started to get acquainted with the truth staring at you. I very much understand you grew up accustomed to seeing white images of Jesus Christ and unlearning such an ingrained belief as an adult might be quite difficult for you but you have to awaken to the truth. There is very little or no evidence in the bible of a white Jesus. 9 Likes |
