Jesus: social justice warrior? Apparently so, if you believe Jacqui Lewis, senior minister of the very liberal Middle Collegiate Church in NYC. During her appearance on Al Sharptons MSNBC show this morning, Lewis described Jesus as a brown-skinned Palestinian man who understood he needed to resist.
The notion that Jesus was Palestinian has been thoroughly debunked. He was Jewish, after all. But that hasnt stopped anti-Semites like Barack Obamas former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, from also making the claim.

What a maroon.
Jesus was a Nazarene....a Jew....as well as fully man and fully God
Sharpton thinks Tawana Brawley is a trans gender Jesus.
Jesus was not what this woman thinks of as a social justice warrior.
He didn’t rip Rome, and he didn’t rip the Jewish King.
He was more focused on the Sadducees and Pharisees than the government.
He was focused on the individual, and not the government.
He said, “Render unto Caesar what it Caesar’s.”
He was not here to be an earthly king. He was here to spread the gospel, and rescue mankind.
He came to rescue and not condemn.
He told people to help the poor. He did not demand they get the government to do it.
His teachings centered on the individual, and what his obligation to his fellow men was.
His teachings centered on our actions, and to bring them back into line with God’s desires.
His idea of social unrest, was for the Jews and then Christians to live Christ-like lives. He was for peace and understanding.
His only expression of being upset, was his reaction to the sellers of sacrificial lambs, and doves, the money changers. He lamented they had turned the Temple into a den of thieves.
We can safely say the social justice warriors of today are not advocating the same things or using the same methods as Christ.
Left wing Jesus? No thanks.
“I thought Cleopatra was Egyptian??? They are brown or olive skinned, arent they???”
Cleo was 100% Macedonian, descended from one of Alexander’s generals. The Macedonian element in Alexandria didn’t even intermarry with Greeks, let alone anyone else, until Julius Caesar’s time.
Would that make her "The Virginger Mary"?
Bingo.
Jesus was an anti-authoritarian who was crucified by Big Gov.
To which Archie responded "Now wait a minute. You say he was Ethiopian, a Presbyterian says he's a Presbyterian..."
You can see that even then his head was beginning to swell to the enormous size it is today ...
Cleopatra was pure Macedonian Greek!
She was the last of the Ptolemy dynasty. The dynasty founded by one of Alexander the Great’s generals.
Alexander Hamilton was black.
JESUS was always Jewish of the Tribe of Judah! Never was he a Palestinian, nor any other Jews. Israel became a Nation in 1948.
ARABS inhabited the area known as Palestine, and here is some history:
http://www.palestinefacts.org/pf_early_palestine_original_people.php
God’s family are Jews/Christians adopted into Jewish Nation “whereby we cry ABBA Father”. Descended from child of the promise to Abraham in Genesis....ISAAC. Abraham’s sin with Hagar, who was Egyptian, became the mother of ARABS produced “Ishmael” with Abraham. Ishmael became an enemy to Isaac’s descendants. God said Ishmael descendants would receive NO inheritance from Abraham, as Issac was to be his heir. Read Genesis.
Arafat was a liar, so most of what he said is irrelevant.
Hope that helps.
Jesus was of Tribe of Judah, one of 12 Tribes of Israel. There are various shades of skin in Israel. Jesus was NOT Black.
Black Liberation Theology is HERESY!
Cleopatra was actually Greek.
Cleopatra was Greek. Actually, Macedonian. After Alexander the Great conquered Egypt, the upper class of Egypt was European.
Even before that, if you look at the statue of Nefertiti, the ancient Egyptians were white, or at least no darker than other Middle Eastern people. Most likely, the ancient Egyptians who settled in the Nile valley were agriculturalists who migrated down from the Mesopotamian/Levant region to take over the fertile Nile region.
Sharpton guest portrays Jesus as a social justice warrior.
