“For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Africa, thy Saviour: I gave ISRAEL for thy ransom, AMERICA and FRANCE for thee. Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I GIVE MEN FOR THEE, and PEOPLE FOR THY LIFE”
Isaiah 43: 3-4
What is your version saying?
Are we on the same page?
AFRICANS, Let’s say this was the original contextual standard and the writings contained in Isaiah 43:3-4.
With this context, do you think the:
- Jews will accept such African God?
- Americans will accept our God?
- France will even come to Africa, or accept our God?
Do you really think the non-African people would have accepted in the future that our God, that gave ISRAEL, America and France for a ransom sent his only begotten son to save them and the world?
Do you really think, it would be possible…Do you really think we would have had a book called the BIBLE?
Do you think there would have been any religion called Christianity?
Don’t you think that this very chapter of the Bible would have formed the major part of their curriculum in respect to African religion?
They would have been perfectly correct to call the God mentioned in Isaiah 43 SATAN, isn’t it so…
I know someone is about to start a repulsive and destructive argument leaving the glaring reality contained in the scripture used above.
I know someone would soon ask me “so, what are you implying?”
Maybe the Jews, America, France and their cohorts would have anchored on the verse to say that our God is truly SATAN and probably the alienated Africans would have accepted that the God of their ancestors that used Israel, America and France as ransom for AFRICA is truly SATAN and they will join hands with the aliens to propagate the message, isn’t it so?
Christian apologists and Rabbis, I know you people have a way of defending your faith. It’s ok! I understand someone would want to teach me spiritual hermeneutics…and tell me that the scripture was not referring to EGYPT, ETHIOPIA and SEBA but those kingdoms represent spiritual forces…I hear you! Na only you wan study theology…no wahalla.
But you get the gist!
What do you think?
If you don get it, forget about it…
