Top Anglican Archbishop Claims ‘Jesus Was a Black Man’
Breitbart ^ | July 06 2020 | VIRGINIA HALE

The Church of England is “too white” while “Jesus was a black man”, according to the new Archbishop of York.

Speaking to The Sunday Times, Stephen Cottrell praised the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, and said his inauguration this week as a white man replacing outgoing Archbishop John Sentamu — who is black — is “awkward” for the church.

“The leadership of the Church of England is still too white, and I hope under my watch we’ll see further changes on that,” he said, asserting that the church has work to do “addressing the deep systemic issues of exclusion and prejudice”.

Perhaps Blacks don't want to be part of a pedophile ring.

It does not matter. Portray Jesus as any color you wish, it’s who he was, not what color he was that matters.

I thought Jesus was a Jewish Semite.

Yeah I did get that too from a book named the Bible. I guess the bishop never read that book.

The new world religion will be to the false god of diversity and ethnic group worship.

Straight from the pit of hell. All who bow, bow to satan.

Blah, blah, blah, so maybe He was the Son of God, maybe He could redeem our sins, maybe He was the promised Messiah — but the IMPORTANT thing was that he was black.

Another goofy, faggy twit in high office in the Church of England. What a dismal failure that institution has become. They have become the anti-Christ trying to destroy Christian institutions from within. They are really Satan’s very own emissaries, wolves in sheep’s clothing.

Maybe so but silliness that can be met with logical answers.
Internal biblical evidence shows that Jesus was so ordinary that He easily would blend into a crowd and escape persecutors. IOW, He resembled the average Jew of His day. To find out what He looked like, just figure out what those Jews looked like. History and art will prove that a black man would have been quite conspicuous in first millennium Palestine.

Making Francis look good. Not an easy task. He is to be commended.

Yeah, being too white is the problem with Anglicanism. Sure. Has nothing to do with priests rogering each other or anything.

Yes, there is some theory out there that Jesus could have been black. Possibly. Really don’t care.

As a a follower of Christ (Catholic) I was raised to believe We are all Brothers in Christ and would treat others as a family member no matter what they looked like.
