RACIAL QUESTIONS, ISSUES,
AND ANOMALIES
7-1-2019
Racial Issues: The Ark
If the
Bible is to be believed, then everyone on the face of the earth is related to
the people on the Ark who survived the flood.
Of course the ark inhabitants were descendants of Adam and Eve, but the
flood dilutes the flow of genealogy back to only eight people.
It
will be assumed that Shem, Ham, and Japheth were the legitimate sons of Noah
and his wife. In the KJV of Gen 6:9, it
says that Noah was perfect in his
generations. Other versions translate “tawmeem” (perfect) as blameless or
flawless. These are all legitimate
definitions but Hebrew dictionaries list other definitions such as: without
blemish, complete, full, perfect, sincerely (-ity), sound, without spot,
undefiled. This implies
that Noah was 100% human with no Watcher/Nephilim DNA mixture. In other words, a true descendant of Adam and
Eve. After all, the mixture of angelic
DNA with human DNA was one of the primary reasons for the flood.
Genesis
6:9 KJV These are the
generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and
Noah walked with God.
Likewise,
Shem, an ancestor of Jesus Christ, was also 100% human meaning that his wife
and his mother, Noah’s wife, also had pure human DNA.
The
mysterious episode occurring in Genesis 9:18 onward, between Noah and Ham has
intrigued commentators but never explained without any doubt. Whatever happened Noah cursed Canaan, the son
of Ham rather than Ham. This was led
some to think that Canaan was showing signs of Nephilim DNA activity.
Nimrod
was an ancestor of Ham and he is considered to have Nephilim characteristics. The term “mighty” or “powerful” in his
description have some considering Nimrod to be a person with Nephilim
characteristics.
Genesis
10:8 KJV And Cush begat
Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one
in the earth.
Many
of the Old Testament giants were concentrated within the ancestors of Canaan
and were located in their particular habitat.
Thus, it is possible that Canaan had Nephilim traits, most likely the
source was Ham’s wife, that was passed down to their children. Each successive generation containing a giant
indicated the DNA effect was becoming less intense over time by producing
smaller giants until it apparently disappeared (or has it?).
Some
Bible teachers claim the post-flood giants were caused by another invasion of
Watcher angels.
Genesis 6:4 NET The Nephilim
were on the earth in those days (and
also after this)
A
post-flood incursion of Watcher angels seems highly improbably and likely
impossible. According to Peter, the
lawless angels were imprisoned until their day of judgment. It is doubtful that another angelic entity
would care to follow suit. It is my
theory that post-flood gigantism was the consequence of Ham’s wife. If Africans are the offspring of Ham (theory
only – not fact), was perhaps Ham’s wife black?
2
Peter 2:4 NET For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but
threw them into hell (actually Tartarus i.e. a special prison for
angelic types) and locked them up in chains in utter darkness, to be
kept until the judgment,
The
racial characteristics of the Ark family and their offspring is unknown. Perhaps Noah, his wife, and the wives of the
sons contained the racial DNA of all racial and ethnic types around the world and
the appearance of their children was always a surprise and an uncertainty. It could be the wives of the sons were of
different races particularly if the theory that African blacks were descended
from Ham then the wife of Ham would be of the Black or Negro race.
Racial Issues: The Tower of
Babel
Within
a short period of time the population derived from the Ark family’s offspring
had advanced considerably. Probably due
to the influence of Nimrod, the bulk of the population were all concentrated at
the same location which is Biblically referred to as Babel. (Babylon is the most famous city from ancient
Mesopotamia whose ruins lie in modern-day Iraq 59 miles (94 kilometers)
southwest of Baghdad).
Nimrod
initiated the idea of building a tall vast tower and a city. There are many reasons given by various commentators
and Bible teachers for the tower. The
written scriptural answer is relatively vague.
The people (they) desired to build a City and a Tower that may (would)
reach unto heaven. They also wanted to
make a name (a mark, a memorial) for themselves and they desired to remain in
Babel and not be scattered abroad (as was commanded by God).
Genesis
11:4 KJV And they said,
Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and
let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole
earth.
Josephus
added a few dictatorial descriptive snippets concerning Nimrod.
Flavius
Josephus Antiquities of the Jews Chapter 4
Now it was Nimrod who excited them to such an
affront and contempt of God. He was the grandson of Ham, the son of Noah, a
bold man, and of great strength of hand. He persuaded them not to ascribe it to
God, as if it was through his means they were happy, but to believe that it was
their own courage which procured that happiness. He also gradually changed the
government into tyranny, seeing no other way of turning men from the fear of
God, but to bring them into a constant dependence on his power. He also said he
would be revenged on God, if he should have a mind to drown the world again;
for that he would build a tower too high for the waters to be able to reach!
and that he would avenge himself on God for destroying their forefathers !
Regardless
of the actual recorded reasons for the city and the tower, it appears that God
and His court were not happy with their decision although it appears the
unhappiness concerned remaining in one location other than inhabiting the earth
as will be explained in the next paragraph.
God
changed the people’s unified language into many different languages. The people were bewildered and baffled. It appears they searched around until they
came in contact with someone (or everyone) speaking the same language. It was at that moment in time the language
groups banded together and decided it would be best for them to move elsewhere
on the planet. At this point the tower appeared
to be a non-issue and there is no evidence that Nimrod continued the project.
The question is: did the groups receiving oriental languages
look like Orientals, or similarly did the groups obtaining African languages
look like Africans, etc. likewise with other groups? If everyone looked the same, which appears to
be highly unlikely, at what historical point did they change?
Without
a definitive answer to the racial question, this article will continue as if
God did, in fact, separate the Babel people by language and by race. This racial situation remained in place for
several generations until the beginnings of large militaristic empires such as
Assyria, Egypt, and Babylon began mixing people.
Racial Issues: The Beast
Empires
A
Biblical Empire that oppresses other nations and people is generally (but not
always) referred to as a beast. An
individual person such as a king, emperor, or dictator is never termed or
designated as a beast. The two beasts of
Revelation 13 are empires (the first beast) or domains (the second beast) and neither
beast designates a single end-times dictator commonly referred to as the
“antichrist”.
The
Biblical beast system represents or describes empires that controlled the people
of God such as the nation of Judah (not Israel) at the beginning of the
Babylonian domination, and later referred to the Church located mainly in
Europe, North Africa, and the Near East (i.e. Turkey).
Prior
to the Babylonian invasion of Judah, the Assyrian Empire was used by God to
conquer the northern ten tribes of Israel and deport them to Eastern Turkey
where they temporarily lived between the Black and Caspian Seas. Assyria attempted to overrun Judah, but they
failed due to the assistance of God. The
Israelites were punished for idolatry, sacrificing children, and other
infractions of the laws of God. They
never returned to Israel and eventually migrated to the northern and western
parts of Europe. Groups of Vikings from
Finland, Sweden, and Norway called the Russ eventually migrated into the area
of Russia.
Much
later (1600’s), groups of European Israelites traveled to North America,
Australia, and New Zealand. In addition
to the native-American Indians, immigrants from Mexico and Africa were later
added to the mix.
The
prophet Daniel (in chapter 7) saw four animals/beasts rising from the sea
(people, empires). These beasts would
ultimately control Judah in some fashion: 1. a lion with eagles'
wings - Babylon; 2. a bear that was raised up on one side, with three ribs in
its mouth between its teeth – Medo-Persia; 3. a leopard with four bird-like
wings on its back and it had four heads - Greece; 4. One that was dreadful,
terrible, and very strong with two large rows of iron teeth that devoured and
crushed, and it trampled with its feet anything that was left. It was different
from all the beasts that came before it, and it had ten horns – Roman Empire.
Among the fourth beast’s ten horns sprouted
another small horn, which is generally referred to as the “little horn”. This “little horn” of Daniel is fulfilled as
the beast rising from the sea (people) in Revelation 13, which is an extension
of the quickly declining Western Roman Empire later, known as the Holy Roman
Empire (a Church system controlling conquered territory).
You may be
asking yourself, “Why are we receiving this historical discourse?”
With the multiple language changes at the tower of
Babel event, it appears plausible that God forced the separation of groups of
people to various parts of the earth. We
have concluded that the manifestation of specific racial features of these different
people groups has no definitive answer but this occurred for some unknown reason. At this point, it can be said that God
separated the Babel population by language and by racial features or through
some form of undiscovered natural selection (not evolution) the various races
appeared in different parts of the world.
Thus, it would seem that God planned and desired the initial separation
of races.
The Empire racial mixing sequence appears to begin
with the descendants of Jacob’s twelve sons (and wives) enslaved in Egypt. This was followed by the exodus of the Hebrews
by Moses into a land of foreigners of different races. It now appears the separation of races is
beginning to be reversed.
The Hebrews (originally all were called Israelites)
brought Egyptians and other nationalities with them. Within the new land the Israelites were
coupled with other nationalities, some distantly related and others only related
through Noah. The Assyrians captured and
deported the northern 10 tribes around 721 BC and many Israelite women were
carried off as wives or concubines (i.e. sex slaves).
In their new deportation home between the Black
and Caspian Seas, the Israelites came in contact with other nationalities and
races. It is almost guaranteed that
biracial coupling occurred.
With the long history of the beast system empires
controlling Judah and other nationalities and races, it is again quite certain
that many biracial marriages and couplings occurred as well.
During the 100 years of freedom that Judah enjoyed
prior to their Roman Empire occupation, the Hasmoneans conquered the Edomites,
who chose to become Jews and married into the Judahites. Although the people of Judah and Edom were
distant cousins, the Edomites had a history of capturing the women of other
nations and races for wives and concubines (sex slaves).
After the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ
and the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost followed by the destruction of
Jerusalem and the Temple in 70 AD the Church quickly spread over Europe and the
Near East (Turkey). The new Church suffered
many problems from the Roman leaders and there was also some occasional respite
from persecution.
The Roman Empire generated the Roman Church also
called the Catholic (all) Church. With
the downfall of the Western Roman Empire the Catholic Church soon became the
Holy Roman Empire and its so-called supreme leader was the Pope, also known as
the “little Horn” of Daniel 7, or the beast from the sea of Revelation 13.
Several who have read many of the articles on this
blog, Freedom From Delusion, are aware that my belief is that the
Revelation is a prophetic history of the Church. This concept is also written about and taught
by Dr. Stephen Jones of God’s Kingdom Ministries.
During the Church Age God brought several
judgments on the Church by allowing invading forces to enter various parts of
Europe, Northern Africa, and the later established Near East division of the
Church in the Eastern Roman Empire.
These invading forces included Northern nations, Mongols, and various brands
of Arabs. These assaults included many
deaths, rapes, and the captivity of women by the soldiers. Again, this resulted in many biracial births
spread around Europe, the Near East, and the Middle East.
The prophecies of the Revelation Church also
include the current days that has witnessed the tribulation of what is called,
Mystery Babylon, although to many awakened people it is not quite a mystery any
longer. The Babylon mystery was created
and promoted by the banking system that was foretold and fulfilled by the
second beast in Revelation 13 or the “beast from the earth”. This system started primarily in England and
France and soon became dominated by the Rothschild family.
There is some form of the central banking system
in almost all parts of the world. The
primary central bank is claimed to be the Federal Reserve located in the USA along
with the Bank of International Settlements located in Basel, Switzerland and the
International Monetary Fund. The
Revelation prophecies concerning the downfall of Mystery, Babylon is presently in
operation.
A
major current goal of the Babylon system (backed by the banking cartel) is a
one-world government controlled by the elite bankers Their desire is a small ruling
class with a mixed race of third world ignorant brown people as workers and
slaves. Merkel, Macron, May, Obama,
Hillary, the current deep state politicians (and others) are desperately
attempting to allow as many third world immigrants into their countries as
possible. Some claim the Democrats are
supporting this for votes. That may be
an ignorant truth but Obama, Hillary, Merkel, Macron, and May are supporting
the influx of migrants for the success of the desired one-world government
(which will never happen until that government is ruled by Jesus Christ).
Is God allowing or promoting this influx of
third world migrants into Europe and North America (the residence of the ten
tribes of Northern Israel)?
It is highly possible. Just as the European and Near Eastern church
(Turkey) (who were the ancestors of the ten tribes of Northern Israel) was
punished by invading racial groups, God may again be punishing the Church for
disbelief (or corrupt doctrines). The
migrants are certainly created a soft war in the USA and Germany.
Adam of the Bible had no
race or ethnicity, Dennis Prager says:
“[Its a microagression] If you just say there is
only one race — the human race — but that is exactly what everyone in this
room believes,” Prager stressed. “I believe on religious grounds that God
created Adam. Adam was not black. Adam was not white. Adam was not Asian. Adam
was not Hispanic.”
“We are all descended from a non-ethnic, non-race
descriptive human being,” he continued. “All of us.”
Some think racial diversity began after the Genesis Flood,
which some believe killed everyone on Earth except Noah, his wife, and three
sons.
A
Somewhat Related Side Note
I
was sharing some of the information in this article with some coffee shop
friends and one particular gentleman said, “You know that blackbirds will not
mate with a mocking bird” and I don’t think using the word “blackbird” was
racist.
Zoos
and other groups have mated various similar animals producing hybrids. Most of these hybrids have birth defects,
sterility, and short life spans. Their
DNA is, or course, not the same, and there are also examples of similar animals
with a different number of chromosomes.
Below are some internet excerpts with explanations exceeding my
knowledge of the current subject.
Since lions and tigers do not exist in the same
areas, this is not something that happens in the wild. It is done in captivity
by disreputable carnies to produce a freak that ignorant people will pay to
see. These cats suffer from many birth defects and usually die young.
In short, hybrid animals are infertile because they
don't have viable sex cells, meaning they can't produce sperm or eggs. This is
the case because the chromosomes from their different species parents don't
match up.
The chromosome difference
makes female hybrids poorly fertile and male hybrids generally sterile due to a
phenomenon called Haldane's rule. ... Horses have 64 chromosomes, while most zebroids (Zebra + Any other Equine) end up with 54 chromosomes.
My
short attempted research on the internet concerning race, chromosomes, and DNA
didn’t provide much helpful usable information.
I will most likely do some more research in the future but for now it
appears reasonable that human chromosomes are relatively identical although
certain genomes within the DNA chromosomes must be different to allow for
various racial identifications particularly the X and Y chromosomes at
fertilization.
If
all humans are descended from two individuals (Adam and Eve) and the population
was reduced to eight people after the flood it would be expected that all
humans are the same but with various different features, colors, and hair textures. The explanation of these differences has
produced several theories but no definitive answer.
Article from: Grace to You
If Adam and Eve were the
first two people, how did we get so many races?
This
is a very complex question, but let’s go at it another way. The races that we
experience today didn’t really come from Adam and Eve. You know why? Because
everybody on the face of the earth got drowned, except for Noah and his three
sons, and their wives. So, all the races came from Noah and Mrs. Noah, and the
three little junior Noahs: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And they were all, you
remember, rescued in the flood, and they came back and began to populate the
earth.
The
best we can tell, Shem located with his people in the Middle East, and are the
Semites: Jews and Arabic people. It’s a huge part of the world--huge population.
Ham, in most studies (and I’m reflecting back a few years in reading things
like Oliver Buswell III, and others who dealt with these issues, and some other
books on the tables of nations), it seems that Ham became a more servile people
and may have moved south and wound up in Africa. The descendants of Ham and
Japheth seem to have colonized Europe. It’s very difficult to know all of that
specifically, but they obviously, through the years, adapted themselves to
their areas. They of course began to develop and all the races eventually came.
But,
apart from what might be the scientific and historical explanation, is the
statement of Acts 17, where it says, “The God who made the world and all things
in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made
with hands; neither is He served by human hands, as though He have need of
anything; He made, from one, every nation.” So, that’s the best answer. Acts
17, verse 26, God, from Noah and Mrs. Noah and Shem, Ham, and Japheth, created
the nations.
Now,
one major component in that happened at the Tower of Babel of course, where God
scattered all the nations all over the face of the earth and changed their
languages.
So,
the best answer is right there in Acts 17--God did it. And God sort of tweaked
their ears and tweaked their eyes, and their nose, and the color of the skin,
and all those genetic unique things, in His creative power, through the process
of providential genetics, to create all the different races.
