Hey Elder 001. Interesting topic here but I have a few valid points to put down. Your topic claims that the bible and God is misogyntic... Meaning they hate women.
Well if it were so, we would not have many female examples used by God that inspire and urge women to serve God. Also all the women mentioned as evil characters that had a great influence would not have been mentioned at all. All the roles female played are innumerable. Buhh lemme start.
First, for good characters in the Bible that played a Major role are the daughters of Philip Acts 21:9 according to the scriptures were prophetesses and were accorded to have played a major part in the new testament church, the daughters of Zelophad Numbers 27:1 and Numbers 26:33 Noah, Higlah, milcah, tirzah, mahlah were women who fought for their inheritance because they were going to lose it because they had no brother. And when Moses consulted God. They were given their inheritance though there was a condition attached to it.
Also, Lydia the woman who sells purple clothes, rich and helped the propagation of the gospel in the Early church. Acts 16:14-15
Then Deborah, the mother in Israel, the woman who kept her home and office, the one who had to follow a man to battle cause he was scared, she was a judge too. Imagine three offices mother to her home, a judge and a prophetess. If the bible was misogyntic such a portrayal of Barak would not have been seen as weak. Judges 5;4-6;33
Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite, who lived in tents, smart woman who killed a whole chief commanding, officer of an army with what a PEG and a HAMMER. Judges 3;16-24 she took the honor of ending the one thing disturbing Israel.
Dorcas, kind and tender hearted her work in the ministry of the apostles and her kindness led her to being resurrected. Acts 9;36-47
Esther(Hadassah) became queen, became a major influence then and now . Jews still celebrate Purim because of her, she risked her life to save her people. Read the whole account of Esther.
Huldah 2Chronicles 34;14-33
she was a prophetess who brought revival back to her country. Read her story too.
Also the woman who crushed head of an officer with her millstone or the one that saved her city by speaking with Joab or the one that saved David from bloodshed Abigail or even Rahab who saved her family and defied royal orders to keep the spies cause even as a harlot she feared God Joshua 2:1-9, Joshua 6:17,22-23.
The bad nko? Jezebel, the wife of Ahab, one who chased a man of God who just called down fire into the wilderness. Athaliah, mother queen who got all the male royal members killed and assumed power. I can go on and on like that.
Also, the bible refers to Israel in figurative expression as a woman check Jeremiah's Lamentations check Ezekiel too, go and read so many prophets that took up talking figuratively about countries in the bible as female.
In the old testament women cleaned the temple check out Eli sons story, women influenced life changing situations like Bathsheba in Solomon's case, Rebecca in Jacobs case and so on.
Lol hope this little is okay sha...

Elder001:

God is sexist and misogynistic.

Here you go. I would type the words to the scriptures but I want you to read it for yourself.

Lamentations 4:8
Lamentations 5:10
Job 30:30
Amos 9:5
Amos 9: 7
Amos 9: 27 Black isn't a curse but white is. For more understanding read Amos 9: 7-27
Revelations 1: 14-15
Daniel 7:9

The ancient/original Hebrews were black/brown in color. The Khazars(from the Caucus region) a Turkish tribe converted to Judaism in the 8th century A.D. and took over the Hebrew identity.

Google, How did Jesus and the Hebrews become white.

Pope Alexander VI of Rome, in his effort to keep black slaves oppressed so that they could sustain their rulership in Rome, hired

Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo to paint all of the images of the BLACK CHRIST in Europe in the image of his WHITE son Caesar Borgias.

Leonardo and Michelangelo didn't stop there, they painted all of the people in the bible WHITE while DECEIVING the whole world. That picture of

white Jesus that you see on church walls and on your home walls is no other than the homosexual son of Pope Alexander VI, Caesar

Borgias. Stop worshiping that false deity, he is not your Father.

I have read all this Bible verse u mention, no evidence of them being original black. They are black because of sufferings, not because they are created that way .except (revelations).

Job 30:30 state that his skin is turning black, because of the suffering he's facing.

Lamentions 4:8 even state the same thing, if you read lamentions 4:7 it says that how there skin was whiter than milk.

khiaa:



So suffering makes their skin turn from white to black just as suffering makes their hair turn from bone straight to wool as described in Daniel

7:9? If they were white how can leprosy turn their skin from white to white? I have seen many poor whites who are suffering and guess what'

not one of them have turned black. Amos 9:7 Are ye not like the children of the Ethiopians unto

me saith the LORD? Were the Ethiopians white? Amos 9:27 leprosy therefore of Naaman shall cleave unto thee and unto thy seed FOREVER,

and he went out from his presence a leper as WHITE AS SNOW. If he was already white how could leprosy turn him from white to white forever?

Your problem is, you can't believe that you aren't inferior to the whites, you place them above you that is why you can't fathom God being any

color other than white, especially not black. This is a real issue with a lot of Africans. You have been deceived by your colonizers and it's time

that you do some serious research and take those blinders off.

PrinceCharmings:
where did you get Amos 9:27 from? Cause Amos ended at 9:15?


trust me Nigerian as a a country is going through a lot right now, so God, ancient Israel being black is the least of my problems right now.

Lamentions 5:10 our skin was black. like and oven, because of the terrible famine.

Amons 9:5 Says nothing about skin colour

Amos 9:7 are ye not as children of the Ethiopian unto me, O children of Israel.
I guess you misunderstood this verse.

Amos 9:27 their are no Amos 9:27 Amos ended @9:15

Sorry my bad, it should have been 2 Kings 5:27. If you start worshiping the TRUE GOD your circumstances will change. Anyway, we have hijacked this thread long enough, I guess we should get back to the topic of the thread. I wish you well in everything you inspire to do/be.

]Kindly please do humanity a favor, as the Christian convert you are just like every self-claiming Christian in West Africa...be kind to replace all where you wrote God up there with Jehovah (Yahweh). God as a title isn't only exclusive to Christianity alone. The only other religion after this Christianity you are convert of is Islam and the name of their God is Allah just as Zeus is the God of the Greeks, Jupiter for the Romans, Odin for the Scandinavians and Buddha for the Orientals. Hope you do get the point Christian convert. Pass the message to other Christian converts
