Bible Discussion Thread

I am trying to seek understanding in where I can find scriptures regarding my identity. I am a mixed black British mother with both parents deceased. I've never married and have mental problems. My father did also but he wasn't on my birth certificate and he was black. Can you help me further understand what I need to be reading? Thanks in advance for your time. My father was married my mum was single ever married

Hello Sabrina, good to know you!

U are a beautiful Child of God whereby upon conception God put your soul into your body, and when you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior you became of the new nature, you became spiritually alive in Christ .

You can read of how mankind was created, all the races called the 6th day creation when God created both male and female in Genesis 1:27.

I would recommend you reading Roman's for it contains the ABC of the believer's education. Until its lesson is learned, we know and can know nothing. The Holy Spirit has placed it first in Canonical order because it lies at the threshold of all "church" teaching, and if we wrong here we shall be wrong altogether.

Hi Sabrina.

1 Thessalonians 5:5. Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.

Nationality gains you nothing.

We are children of darkness/the night or children light.

Sometimes even Christians through the carnal mind identify themselves as a Jewish, Black, White, Indian ect ect..Christian as if there is some favor to their ethnic group.

We also see those who covet the Identify of the Israelites as though God favor the Israelites.

This is because of a misunderstanding of scripture.

They are set apart for a purpose, (Which I don't care to expound on here.)

Just to mention for clarity you have the ""Black Israelites who say they are the real Israelites."" and You have the Mormons who say they're somehow tied to the tribe of Joseph.

I mention these groups as examples to make my point.

Here's what matters.

For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

THERE IS NEITHER JEW NOR GREEK, THERE IS NEITHER BOND NOR FREE, THERE IS NEITHER MALE NOR FEMALE: FOR YE ARE ALL ONE IN CHRIST JESUS.

And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. Galatians 3:26-29.

Also;

Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 2 Corinthians 5:16-17.

This is all we should earnestly covet after and display the humility of Christ which is shown in this verse.

Philippians 2:5-8.

God bless.
