    Hi Carol.

    Black, White, Red, Brown, and sometimes blue if you mess with the wrong guy is the color of this tent we live in.

    We in our carnal state identify sadly rank one another that way.

    But when we are born again we should Identify one another as equal Brothers.

    God bless.

    God made all nations of one blood and divided the nations as He willed for His reasons. There is no sin or shame in belonging to one nation over another or one color over another. All men have the same color blood and are all descendants of the same two human parents dating back to Noah and his wife.

    Acts 17:26

    And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;
  • Mishael on Part 2 of why race colors - In Reply on Genesis 1:26 - 2 years ago
    I did not mean it to say color is a disease. I meant that the blending of the man with the woman, would select color, hair type, eye color, etc. From all the way back to Genesis, the DNA THAT GOD CREATED, is passing through bloodlines. It picks up and Carrie's everything in it.

    That's why I think Adams and Eves blood originated ALL elements in every human beings DNA.

    I don't think Egyptians are blacker than others because of sun exposure; as scientists preach today. Who knows.

    I'm relying totally on what God created and what he used to mold it. Through science we are discovering that DNA is the carrier God Chose.

    I look like my ancestors: all of them. They all migrated all over the world, from the lands of Israel. Scientists cannot find the Garden of Eden, even now.

    It was in Nineveh, where people were "classed."

    Working class, Elite class, Slave, Masters, etc.

    God put it in us to carve out our own paths.

    Cain killed Abel. Cain left and took the evil with him. Seth carried the DNA of Jesus Christ. God oversaw Jesus's bloodline thousands of years until Book of Luke.

    What a Mighty God we serve!!
  • WHY GOD CREATED HUMANS AS HE DID__WHY COLORS - In Reply on Genesis 1:26 - 2 years ago
    Everybody has different answers for that. I turn to Genesis where God created man. What material was He using?

    Genesis 1:26, Genesis 2:7

    God FORMED (meaning molded) man from DUST. He made a clay with water. Scientists say our bodies are 50% water.

    Then God breathed through Adams nose the breath of Gods life. Man became a living SOUL.

    People get confused over Gen. 1:27 because here it says God created Adam "male & female". See Malachi 2:15 "ONE. A Pair.

    Genesis 3:18 God purposes to make Adam a help, meet, for Adam.

    Gen. 3:21 God opens Adam and takes a rib. God MADE a woman for Adam. They are "married" in verses 23-25

    One=a man and a woman. But by the Books Leviticus and Deuteronomy, we see "perversions of the Plan of God". Which still persists in Romans chapter 1. Today it's different; people are having surgery. GOOD NEWS, They can still repent and be saved. God can't fix their bodies, but He will save their souls IF they repent.

    Moses's writing of Genesis seems to skip around, but God told him how to write it down.

    God planned that children would be born of one man and a woman. A pair. Married in covenant to each other.

    Why different colors? God used dust because dust contains ALL colors. I'm an artist, and we use all mediums to make paint different colors and consistencies.

    Eve came out of Adam, so her color was his color. Blending their DNA in a child, could produce a child of the color in that DNA. Colors, diseases, etc can happen if DNA is damaged somehow.

    One color is not more precious to God. He wanted all colors, or he would've use just limestone or charcoal. He CHOSE DUST.

    Satan was still around. He is the ACCUSER; creator of chaos. To hurt Gods creation, he preached Prejudice. We see in Nineveh when they built the Tower of Babel.

    One day, Satan will be in the Lake of Fire, eternally.

    DNA is not a curse. It has a purpose. Love yourself and love God. Grace is unmerited favor. Ask God for more.

    I love you
