What Conservatives Don’t Understand About the Black Community
The Daily Signal ^ | July 30, 2021 | Raynard Jackson

Posted on 08/03/2021 6:57:26 PM PDT by Tolerance Sucks Rocks

As a graduate of Oral Roberts University, I was blessed to spend a lot of time with Oral Roberts himself.

Roberts repeatedly told me, “Go into every man’s world and meet them at the point of their need.”

He was referring to Christians evangelizing throughout the world. We Christians cannot wait for people seeking God to stumble into our churches. Rather, Christians must go to them and invite them to join our movement.

In a similar manner, conservatives must go!

They must go to black entrepreneurs. They must go to black parents. They must go to black preachers.

No more buffoonery. No more Stepin Fetchit. No more minstrel shows.

Blacks don’t need to be persuaded or convinced about conservative values. Blacks are the most conservative group in the country and have been for most of America’s existence.

Conservatives must start financially supporting legitimate, credible black organizations and individuals who have standing within the black community.

Conservative groups must form strategic partnerships with these credible black groups and individuals.

Far too often, conservatives attempt to address issues publicly that are of particular interest to the black community, but with not one credible black person on the platform with them.

Do conservatives not realize the optics of having a white person who has no standing in the black community attempt to address racial issues?

I think Scripture puts this way, “So Jesus said to them, “Because of your [a]unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.”

Having multiple children out of wedlock and multiple baby daddies is considered a conservative value now?

So it can be found in the Koran and other pagan writings, but not the Bible.

Thanks.

“...not supported by Scripture....”

Where is The Constitution supported by Scripture?

“ Conservatives must start financially supporting”

We’ve had quite a bit of that…

That would be evidence of the damage on the black community by Democrats. Their rates of single parenthood and absent father were lower than whites before the welfare act by LBJ.

That doesn’t mean that they aren’t conservative. A failing to live up to an ideal does not mean that you don’t believe in the ideal.

They do need to repent and strive to get back to how things used to be in their community.

I see logic and reason are not your strong points.

God expresses thoughts to individuals beyond what is written in The Bible.

Even Pope Marx gets messages beyond The Bible, alleged to come from God.

And your treatise on exactly where in The Bible the Constitution is presented is available where?

All over the place. A completely separate issue worthy of its own thread. But your little expression is not in the bible and is unbiblical.

A closer expression would be that God helps those who can’t help themselves.

The country malingers under the burden of virulent mythologies producing urban black cultures with shattered families, indiscriminate abortion, and rampant criminality; cultures where blacks re-segregate themselves and reject Dr. Martin Luther King’s dream of a symphony of brotherhood. These cultures erase role models like Booker T. Washington and Fredrick Douglas. These men promoted cohesive families, education, entrepreneurship, and marketable skills as strongholds of competence for building individual character, for enjoying and promoting personal liberty, and for exalting the human spirit. Similar role models existing today have been effectively marginalized in these impoverished communities, and legitimate and credible leaders who do not support these Gulags of dependency may not enter.

If blacks want to prosper, they have to escape these urban communities. When the college I worked at was accused in the press of racial prejudice, one of our degree completion students who was black and owned his own construction company explained the difference between him and Los Angeles blacks.

“But your little expression is not in the bible and is unbiblical.”

You additionally need to provide a treatise about why The Constitution is Biblical while the aforementioned meme is NOT.

You are a jokester of Pope Marx persuasion.

No I don’t, any more than you’re gonna give us a treatise on how the bill of rights is supported by scripture.

You sound anti-biblical. Free Republic is Pro-God. Are you?
