The Black Culture, The Black Church & The Black Family

Every now and then, one comes across a conversation that is well worth displaying. This is such a conversation. I would like to first say however, while dealing with the Black community, I want no White, Hispanic, Arab, Chaldean or any other race or nationality reader of this blog to feel excluded or out of place. THANK YOU for your readership, prayers and if you should participate, your comments, as always, are WELCOME. But THIS needs to be said, and thank God that THE DUNAMIS WORD, has been a part of saying it since our inception on AUGUST 25, 2007 with "Get Right Church And Let's Go Home"

Please enjoy these fine Pastoral leaders and THANK YOU to the Biblical Conservative Youtube for sharing this vitally important conversation. 

Blessed!

"All Nations Shall Rise Against Israel" ~ The UN Security Council

It has begun...

On Sept. 18th, 2025, 14 of the 15 members of the United Nations Security Council, and 4 out of the 5 permanent members of the council, led by Algeria, set forth a cease fire resolution accepting the accusation of the Human Rights Council (HRC) that Israel is engaging in genocide and is committing the height of atrocities of inhumane actions, further demanding that Israel should immediately cease her actions in Gaza, and allow international aid into the region. The United States voted NO on the action and further accused those who drafted the resolution of continued and ongoing anti-semitism. 

14-Therefore prophesy, son of man, and tell Gog that this is what the Lord GOD says: On that day when My people Israel are dwelling securely, will you not take notice of this?e 15-And you will come from your place out of the far north—you and many peoples with you, all riding horses—a mighty horde, a huge army. 16-You will advance against My people Israel like a cloud covering the land. It will happen in the latter days, O Gog, that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may know Me when I show Myself holy in you before their eyes ~ Ezek 38:14-16

At the same time and on the same day, America's closest ally, Great Britain, has declared its continued intent to recognize the Palestinian State. Remember, there is and remains no Palestinian government or leadership, and a nation called Palestine has never existed. 

Riyad Mansour "The Palestinian Representative To The UN" was especially bombastic and eager to rewrite history claiming Hamas (by proxy of the Palestinian people) to be innocent an d called for the UN to mount an "International Protection Force" ie: soldiers to Gaza,  claiming that his alleged "nation" is a part of the "forces of peace in the world". He went on to assert that Israel was a "killing machine" which had been launched against Palestinians. 

And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth. ~ Zec. 14:12

Why Was The Alleged Cease Fire Resolution Rejected?

There was great debate over this and the only individuals that were interested in laying the full resolution out was the delegation from Israel. Israel outlined that the alleged cease-fire was developed by 10 nations with Algeria leading the charge. The resolution was accepted by all other members of the HRC except the United States. The United States representative denounced the resolution because of its anti-semitic bias. 

In addition to being and anti-semitic document, the additional reasons that the proposal was rejected by the United States were:

• It's language refused to declare that ALL acts of terrorism were inhumane and should be condemned.

• The resolution refused to include any language that would condemn the actions of Hamas. 

• The resolution refused to demand that Hamas lay down its weapons and return all hostages immediately as a condition of peace.

Remember, Hamas is classified as a terrorist group, is an illegitimate government and organization who developed and carried out the unprovoked and disgusting and barbaric attack on Israel on Oct. 7th 2023. Remember, it was Hamas PIGS who beheaded men, women, and children, microwaving children, raping women and defiling the land with the murder of the innocent. Over 1,200 people were brutally murdered and most were innocent civilians, children, unsuspecting families. 

Amar Benjamma of Algeria, in response to Israel's shining the light on why this horrible resolution was rejected by the United States, and Israel claimed that 10 of the elected member nations of the Security Council had drafted and accepted the resolution and that their only aim and focus was on the "famine" and ultimately "genocide" of the Palestinian people and the "revulsion" against the actions of Israel and what is currently happening to the Palestinian people. Nearly refusing to address the absolute atrocities and seemingly glossing over the fact that a terrorist organization is still holding hostages intending to use them as human shields against the attack of Israel, the nations approving of this measure were adamant that Israel was wrong and was a genocidal nation. 

1-And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. 2-And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. ~ Revelation 13:1-2

It is clear that there is a rising hatred against Israel and that is not necessarily because of the actions of Israel. Israel has been a peaceful state and the only free nation in the region. This fight is a spiritual fight against the God of Israel which gave birth to what is called Christianity today. It is that foundation, the foundation of the WORD of TRUTH that is under attack. 

Christianity, and biblical morality is under fire as it has been for a number of years. The world is coming together in effort to push out God and his WORD and replace it with the rule of mankind or humanism. I have noticed this intent is especially broadened when secularism has been set back either by leadership, the courts and or rejected by the people. 

Remember, as I outlined in my articles "The New Enlightenment Pt. 1", and "Not So Wild About Harry & The New Humanism" the Humanist Manifesto of the late Paul Kurtz outlined the following goals:

"…The wider platform for human progress as part of a New Enlightenment needs, I submit, to advocate secularism in the above three senses:
(1) the separation of religion from the state;
(2) the humanization of values that satisfy the deeper interests and needs of human beings; and
(3) the decline of religious practice, entailing the growth of the Human City in place of the City of God."

By whatever means, the devil does not want the people of God to exist. Why? Because through us, and the Spirit of God within us, the world and the devil himself, (or as Enoch lays it out, the children of Nephilim or what we know as evil spirits who were confined to this world in their death) are constrained from performing the full evil and full evil acts that they wish to do in this world. Since God used the flood, to destroy them, their technology, their acts and their works, they have desired to renew and replenish their evil to the fullest upon the Earth, and the only thing that constrains them is The Spirit of the Lord through HIS church which will NOT be defeated!

And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. ~ Mt. 16:18

These are truly evil days. Remember, the acts and ways of the devil and evil will appear to be rooted in reason and the security and safety of humanity. Many will find evil palatable and even desirable. In the church, it will be a focus on everything but what it takes to yield to God and his Spirit. They will cheer for blood as they did with Charlie Kirk and as they wished they could with President Donald Trump. Biblical morality will be set on its ear. It will be era of human reason and the era of human will that will take front and center and set the stage for the anti-Christ and the eschaton or fulfillment of the last days and ultimately, the Kingdom of God. 

And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. ~ Rev. 22:12

Blessed!

Charlie Kirk At Cambridge

It amazes me to hear many of my fellow Black ministers attempt to reconcile the murder of Charlie Kirk with God's justice and even more, with the Law of Attraction. It certainly lets me know why the Black church has lost much of her influence in the world and nearly all of her power with God. WE ARE A BACKSLIDDEN CHURCH! Churches led by White ministers and suburban congregations have always had issues, but we have fallen a long way even into the enjoyment of public executions. Seems that we would be the last ones to enjoy or relish over such displays after all that has been done to us, as a Black community even in the post civil war era. Shameful!

The sad part is that some don't even recognize what Charlie Kirk was doing and what his ministry was. Many didn't understand that he not only had a political mission, but that he was also a Christian apologist. Further, many have no clue as to what true community engagement is, or how to preach, teach and stand for the gospel outside of the 4 walls of the church or to them that disagree, and or what the gospel ultimately means. 

Instead, many Black ministers have resorted to a culturally centered and culturally sensitive gospel based on their perception of racism, which has been redefined by them to suit their audience. This type of Black theology, in many instances is led by sinners, who cannot spiritually perceive the door and know little about the gospel and them that delivered it in holy writ. 

I admit. Charlie Kirk cannot be compared to Malcom X, or Dr. MLKing...Why? Because CHARLIE PREACHED THE GOSPEL and was faithful to our Lord Jesus Christ in message and in deed. Certainly many Black ministers preach truth and live the same as well, however the problem is that too many, both ethnic and urban, both Black and White, use the gospel as a means to a personal end. I'll expound on this in my next article. 

Charlie did what Paul did, he went to Mars Hill and preached and helped changed the world and shook the devil from his foundation. These preachers are FREE to speak in disapproval of him as they chose because of people like Mr. Kirk that promoted a free and fair exchange of ideals and values. 

Don't like me and my commentary or assessment? Join the club...you ain't heard nothing yet!

Below, enjoy the debate and effort to do what we should be doing...win the lost (as opposed to preaching to folk who already agree with us or basing what we preach on ethnicity or even gender)

Blessed!

A WORD From Our Sponsor (And Blog Author)

Was Charlie Kirk's Death In God's Plan?

Persons filled with evil and led by demons and demonic influences are celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk. Not surprised because this is what evil principalities and devils do. They think that by killing the visionary, they kill the vision. These are the same ones and the same type of spirits, personalities and enemies who celebrated the crucifixion of Jesus. They knew only part of the story and believed what the religious leaders told them to believe about Jesus, and of course, the lie spread much faster than truth, because evil hearts love a lie. However, in Jesus case, God's PLAN was that HE would die, for the sins of the world and that the world be saved through his death and shedding of his blood for the remission of our sins. 

Although, the church, had no reason to exist and grow, except it be for the God of truth, grew into the largest religious belief in modern history. 

For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. ~ 2 Cor. 5:21

Unlike Drake, who knows absolutely nothing about God's plan, it was in the plan of God that Jesus would die for our sins and rise again on the third day!

These are my recent statements posted on the subject of "God's Plan":

There was a particular fool mocking saying that we, Christians, should be happy
because of Charlie's death because this was "in God's plan"...This is my response to that sentiment:

First, even in her mockery, she wasn't wrong. God wasn't caught by surprise by this and he does have a plan. His PLAN was fulfilled in Charlie Kirk's life and did HE use him to HIS glory?! 

The PLAN includes us, as fellow Christians and believers, uniting and engaging the community with the gospel like never before. The PLAN includes us, like a relay team at baton handoff, taking what was given to us through this young man's life and running like our life and the life of the community relies upon it, because we are close to the end. The PLAN includes us showing why sin and sexual perversion , gender mutilation, the murder of children and other forms of deviant sexuality is wrong and not God's best for us and why such things defile the very image of God in which we are created. The PLAN includes us taking up things from where we are, doing all we can to build our family and community on Christian, biblical values and true notions of freedom, justice and love.

So, unlike many...I would agree. We should accept the plan of God, but she and those like her should be careful, because the PLAN of God has given her a staunch warning to turn from her sins and the wooing of the Spirit of God doesn't last forever as God said HIS Spirit wouldn't "strive with man always"(Gen. 6:3) meaning that death will come for everyone, and our works will speak for themselves. She is best served to know that "pride goeth before destruction" (Prov. 16:18) and further that God has PLANNED the judgement of this world and his PLAN says exactly why...

John 16:7-11

7-Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

8-And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

9-Of sin, because they believe not on me;

10-Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;

11-Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

Thank God Charlie was IN God's plan. The question to the critic, the hater and them that rejoice at death and the destruction of the righteous and the defilement of the image of God...are YOU in HIS plan?

Today, I am calling Colleges and Universities to find out how I can get on their list of speakers, lecturers and panelists on religious topics and Christian conservative issues...I wasn't doing that before Charlie's death. That too must have been in GOD'S PLAN!!!

We Mourn The Loss Of Charlie Kirk...HATE STILL NEVER WINS

Unfortunately, not only will September 11th 2001 live in infamy as not only a crime against the United States, but a crime against humanity, but now also September 10th, 2025 will be remembered as a time in which we can clearly see the war for the soul of American ideals and values, with the assassination of Turning Point founder Charlie Kirk. 

TurningPointUSA released the following statement in light of this afternoon's tragic murder.

As I watched this horrendous event unfold, I took time to share my thoughts in our church thread on Facebook:

HATE STILL NEVER WINS...

Charlie Kirk had viewpoints that I agreed with and some I disagreed with, but NO viewpoint was worthy of the threat of death, death or a heinous public assassination.

My Journey...

What YOU don't know is that about from 2010 to about 2015, I received threats of physical and bodily harm for my viewpoints and acts within the community as well. 

First, from some of the over 50 street and community vigils, as I spoke against the acts of murderers and damage done to community when violence happens. Yes, I was threatened, not on site, but some didn't like what I said to grieving communities and ultimately about the cowards who committed mayhem. Some of them, whose family members were guilty of killing others, sent word that they didn't like me and would like to hurt me. In one neighborhood, during a vigil where a young man had been shot in the head, it was the alleged "gang members" and so called "street people" themselves that let me know, "Pastor, we got your back. Don't worry".

Local Nation Of Islam leader, Minister Roy C, heard the threat upon me as well, and vowed the help of the local NOI for anything I was doing in which I needed help and or protection. That's in part why I love the NOI today, in spite of the alleged Christians on the other side who tell me to dishonor them.

Then, when former District 150 Superintendent Dr. Grenita Lathan was charachetured and threatened, I was too because I supported her and her tenure. They pasted pictures and threats on her lawn, door and porch that included threats to all who supported her. Without doubt, many of them who hated her hated me no matter what was said or how I stood for students and strong and solid education and better administration. 

Historically, I have studied Dr. King, Malcom X, Medgar Evers and others, who embraced concepts that would help change a world and I AM NOT happy that those fine men were murdered for their idealism and efforts to free the minds of people from evil.

For those rejoicing at this murder, your heart is evil. Be careful that the gallows you make and rejoice over are not the same gallows that your hatred hangs you in. 

Just know that HATE, neither YOUR HATE, nor the hatred of others will ever win. TRUTH MARCHES ON in spite of your efforts to live in fantasy! 

Be clear, although you may hate the TRUTH, TRUTH is NOT hate. To tell you TRUTH is the greatest act of love that can ever be performed, because without truth there is no peace with God and no justification into eternity.

As this world turns morality upon its head, and tries to pretend that wrong is right and that God is some type of joke, those of us committed to TRUTH stand even more strong day to day and through every tribulation that what GOD has spoken is TRUE and that we must trust HIM with our lives and our hearts... 

If you don't know JESUS, he is only ONE Prayer or act of faith away. HE IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE! (John 14:6) 

Pastor Harvey Burnett

New Bethel COGIC

Peoria, IL.

Charlie has run the race that was set before him. He ran it well and he ran it on FAITH and out of his pledge to Our Lord Jesus Christ. We are praying for his family, and for the children to grow up to be strong in the Lord and in the Power of HIS might, similar to their Father.  

Well done Charlie. I'll meet you in that GREAT DAY OVER YONDER!

Blessed!

The Genocide Of Black America Pt. 3: Danielle Carter & The Battle For The Life Of Chicago

It is amazing to see how politicians are responding to the crime and violence epidemic in America and what they are really saying to all of us. From their rhetoric we can conclude that they are saying that Black lives really don't matter. Remember, they nearly burned down half the country when they though they could, claiming "BLACK LIVES MATTER"...but when it comes to stopping crime and violence NONE of us really matter to this liberal, elite, think they know it all, TRASH, crowd of politicians. 

Remember, they told us in the pandemic, that their #1 job was to "keep the public safe"...they then proceeded, like Secretary Robert Kennedy said, to implement and perpetrate the most unscientific, destructive and disaster ridden policies upon the public imaginable and were responsible for suicides of children, destruction of marriages, and livelihoods of countless individuals simultaneously facilitating the overall current distrust of the medical community. 

What Of Crime & Violence

Like Mrs. Carter, I believe that it is unconscionable that people could be rallying against anyone or any organization or entity that vows or offers to make our streets safer and reduce violence, especially the violence that is killing young Black men and damaging the Black community as it has done. Black people make up only 13% of the US population but one of the highest percentages of those VICTIMIZED by of acts of violent crime. To see folk rally and deny to ask for or petition for assistance in dealing with crime and violence prevention displays at least 3 things.

1- A complete lack of understanding of what the military vow is. It is to defend the United States from "ALL ENEMIES, FORIEGN OR DOMESTIC" Specific military involvement has nothing to do with the establishment of martial law. To say that rampant murder and violent crime, and those  perpetuate those things are not "enemies" of us all is ridiculous. If the presence of the military can help save someone's life, and making community policing more easy...GOD BLESS THEM!

2- A total disassociation from the real issues, and lack of understanding of what crime and violence has done and is doing to our communities in general, and as such one is not qualified to say a word about the subject...

3- An attitude of one who believes that a certain amount of loss of life is acceptable and even tolerable, as long as it is THEM and not US. In this case, this is directed towards Black people and communities where Black people live predominately. This is the ultimate insult and height of foolishness and similar to those who both took a bath in gasoline and washed their clothes in gasoline, while standing by a burning inferno; these people are on their way to the lowest part of HELL. Proof: Both Pritzker and Brandon Johnson enjoy heavy details of security and police presence, while the community is left to bury their dead at war zone proportions due to idiots wanting to flex with a gun. 

Until you have conducted community vigil's and remembrances for those killed of senseless violence, or experienced the pain of the loss of a loved one due to it, you really don't quite understand the sense of urgency, but this is an EMERGENCY which has raged on for years. There are entire communities of young people in Chicago who were alive in 2013, but did not live to 2017. They are dead now due to the culture of violence, many of them didn't live to be 20 years old, but that is another story. Someone has to save the innocent from these murderers and predators, and I say we must do that..."BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY"  

Blessed!

Council On Criminal Justice

"The picture is considerably different for Black Americans, who reported increased violent victimization from 2022 to 2023. Nonlethal violent victimization rates for Black Americans jumped 37% during this period, reaching 12.3 incidents per 1,000 people in 2023, the highest of any racial group. Aggravated assault rates increased by 16%, the survey data show, while robbery rates climbed by 79%. Additionally, while rape/sexual assault rates decreased 25% from 2021 to 2022 for Black Americans, they rose 47% from 2022 to 2023."
