Are Black People Created In God's Image ? by Nobody: 8:21am On Feb 12, 2017 |
The Bible said human beings are created in God's Image. But then God created Adam and Eve to be White. He could have created Adam to be White and Eve to be black. But he created both of them to be White. We can rightly conclude here that God is a White being, since his first two creation are White and they are "created in his image". Now, given this premise, we Black people in whose image are we created ? |

God isn't white nor black. Adam and Eve aren't black nor white. They were humans. The human genome is has a wide variation and different genes have different concentrations all over the world. There is no such thing as black and white. All the humans in the world aren't much different genetically than anybody's cousin. We are all cousins. 1 Like |

abiodunalasa:Ok. God wasn't talking about physical body when he said let's make man in our image and likeness, God is a spirit. But Adam's body did mirror the life of God insofar as it was created in perfect health and was not subject to death. He was also given dominion over earth and the ability to communicate with the maker. He was created in God's likeness because he was created perfect, in righteousness and innocence. 2 Likes |

Horlufemi: We ain't talking Genetics here bro. We are talking about race as defined by our skin colour. Who tell you their is no such thing as Black and White ? Ofcourse there is. You are either a Negro (Black) Or Caucasian (White) Or Mongoloid (Brown) And that's where am coming from, if the first two creations are Caucasians (White) and they are in God's image...in whose image are the other race i.e. Negroids (Black) and Mongoloids (Brown) etc 2 Likes |

Kondomatic: Pls check the meaning of the word "image" again. When you say Image, you are talking about physical attributes. There is nothing equivocal about that. Thank you. |

abiodunalasa: You are coming from a lie used to deceive y'all. There is only one human race. In Science there is one human race. that's why a man from Africa can marry from America have a child that is half caste. even some half caste tend to lean to one side or very mixed. because "blacks" have some "white" genes and vice versa. To surprise you there is no pure "race". The skin color is a result of environment. THERE IS ONLY ONE HUMAN RACE Please be informed. |

Re: Are Black People Created In God's Image ? by raysville(m): 6:34pm On May 17, 2017 |
guys get it, the black race is the human race. every other race is counterfeit. that place called Eden is Ethiopia. that's is why you see Ethiopia in the Bible many times. in fact science concluded that modern humans migrated out of Ethiopia. so Adam is black and his girlfriend eve. pls don't get it twisted. the original Egyptians, Libyans, Sudanese, Israeli's and Arabs where all BLACK! the bible said that that the Israelite's looked just like the Ethiopians. Amos 9:7. white people appeared on this planet 6000 yes ago. they are not local. they are coming from another star. that is why they have Neanderthal genome In them. scientists have confirmed that if you are non African you are likely part Neanderthal. |

There are no such things as God/gods/luck/miracle/heaven/hell/written destiny/after life. We all evolved from apes in Ethiopia. |

abiodunalasa: Wrong wrong wrong wrong. God isn't real. Adam and Eve aren't real. Skin colour in populations usually correlates with the average UV radiation levels for a region. The reason so many people in Southern India and in central Africa historically have such dark skin is because the UV radiation levels closer to the equator are much higher than they are in, say Europe or Northern China. E.g. Tamil people in Southern India. Not African but many still have very dark skin. 1 Like |

abiodunalasa: This is correct. Satan is our true father. Our ancestors worshipped him. We all know deep down this is how we are created. It is why we must seek deliverance constantly be watchful of all things pray unceasingly and fear the Almighty. God is not our father but we can make Heaven through the blood of Jesus and the word of God. |

@op, Cyrus the Great and Hati13 have already answered your question, but I will add to it!!! 1.The bible is a book of fiction, it has nothing to offer concerning our origins!!! 2.Do you know what they call "Melanin"? The melanin codes/chapters in Caucasians are broken/missing, so what does that tell you? 3.Why do you think that there are so many people with black hair and eyes, but fewer people with blonde hair and "blue eyes"? Why are there fewer albino humans and tigers? 4.There are other religious myths that insist that the first man was black and that his name was not Adam!! |

abiodunalasa:What is the image of God to begin with? |
Re: Are Black People Created In God's Image ? by analice107: 9:17pm On May 19, 2017 |
abiodunalasa:No, Abraham wasn't the direct descendants of Arabs. There were Arabs even before God called Abraham from Padan Aram to go to the land of Canaan. Abraham's father was from Ur of Chaldeas. Where is Chaldeas today? between Iraq and Kuwait. There were people living and building cities before Abraham even had Ismail and Isaac. You believe Abraham had the children who were living in those lands even before he had his own children? Don't mind the muslims and their lies of Abraham being their ancestor, it's a lie. 1 Like |

Basically, if Jesus actually existed he would probably be a little bit dark in complexion and according to Christian Jesus is one with Yahweh Abi? the image might be a reflection of Yahweh in human form 1 Like |

So according to this OP, "Image" as used in Genesis, means "Skin colour"? Honestly, I don't know the type of reading, people do nowadays. 3 Likes 2 Shares |
