Christianity—The Remedy for Racism

Christianity—The Remedy for Racism

Let’s not mince words: Racism is real; racism is wrong; and racism is evil—in all its forms. White supremacy is wrong, evil, and is not to be defended or validated in any form.

But the battle happening in America today is not a battle between white supremacists and black victims; it is a battle between godless evolutionism and biblical Christianity that is presented under the false umbrella of racial inequity. In other words, the real battle is not between races but between cultures—and many black Americans have been tricked into thinking this is a racial war, when, in fact, it is a war between the God of the Bible and the enemy of all mankind. Many people of all races are inadvertently lending their support to the very forces that fuel racial exploitation and abuse while believing they are opposing it.

It is only by putting God first, as Martin Luther King Jr. did, advancing the principles of love, truth and liberty, advocating for the inalienable rights of equality of all people as beings created in the image of God—in other words, returning to the core values of the Protestant Reformation and leaving evolutionism behind—that we will ever have genuine equality.

Martin Luther King Jr. understood it was the principles of the Bible, of the Protestant Reformation, that led to the founding of the USA:

“When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note. … Even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of the creed: ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.’”

Dr. King knew that racial exploitation in America did not find its roots in the gospel of Jesus Christ, nor in the founding documents of this country. He understood there was another cause. And that cause is God’s enemy, who employs all methods to deny God and lead us away from the Bible.

As Christians, we understand that we are in a war not against mere humans, but against principalities and powers of darkness in the heavenly realms. Our real enemy is Satan and his forces that work behind the scenes to undermine love; obstruct truth; incite fear, jealousy, discord; inflame selfishness; and cause divisions—including racial conflicts and injustices.

In my blog, “BEWARE: THE CURRENT CLAIM OF “INSTITUTIONAL RACISM” IS REALLY AN ATTACK ON CHRISTIANITY,” I document four of God’s principles as described from Scripture, His design for humanity:

  1. God created us with individuality, our own identity and ability to think and reason that we are to develop by exercise—and this requires liberty, freedom of conscience, and choice (Genesis 1:1, 1:27, 28; Isaiah 1:18–20; Romans 14:5; Hebrews 5:14; Galatians 5:23).
  2. God created families with fathers and mothers; love for each other starts in the family and is how God built life to operate (Genesis 1:27, 28).
  3. God created nature, and His laws are the protocols upon which nature operates; thus, God created science, the true investigation of evidence that is testable and reproducible and reveals truth.
  4. And God designed humans for useful labor and gave Adam and Eve work in a sinless world, that we gain strength only through exercise, and that failure to engage in useful labor is damaging to human character (Genesis 2:15; Matthew 25:14).

After describing these Bible principles, I quote word for word from a chart from the National Museum of African American History and Culture, posted in the Smithsonian Institute, which states:

“White dominate culture, or whiteness, refers to the ways white people and their traditions, attitudes and ways of life have been normalized over time and are now considered standard practices in the United States.”

This chart then goes on to describe what it alleges to be the standard practices of whiteness in America today: 1) Rugged individualism, 2) Two-parent family structure, 3) Emphasis on Scientific Method, 4) History [European-centered], and 5) Protestant work ethic.

What is happening in America today is an attack on the principles of God, the principles of the Bible, by labeling these very principles as racist, as “whitism,” when, in fact, it is a cultural war and not a racial war. It is a battle between godless evolutionism and the God of the Bible. This was overtly stated in a July 5, 2021, article that appeared in Scientific America. Entitled “Denial of Evolution Is a Form of White Supremacy,” the author writes,

“I want to unmask the lie that evolution denial is about religion and recognize that at its core, it is a form of white supremacy that perpetuates segregation and violence against Black bodies.”

The author then goes on to take a perverse interpretation of Scriptures, claiming that Christianity teaches that black skin is the “mark of Cain” and is a punishment by God for sin. The article makes this false allegation to support their lie that Christianity is the cause and root of racism. However, any honest Bible student, one who uses the Scripture as their source and authority, will conclude that the Bible nowhere teaches such a perverse conclusion, and, in fact, it teaches that:

You were all baptized into Christ, and so you were all clothed with Christ. This means that you are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus. In Christ, there is no difference between Jew and Greek, slave and free person, male and female. You are all the same in Christ Jesus (Galatians 3:26–28 NCV).

But the article is not interested in biblical truth; it is interested in advancing a godless theory of evolutionary origins. It affirms that in America today, essentially every scientific leader accepts as “truth” that all human life evolved from African ancestors and that the biblical narrative is a lie that must be rejected in order to embrace racial equity.

So, which philosophy, which culture, if lived, if embraced, if practiced, if believed in and carried out, is the true cause of institutional racism—Christianity or godless evolutionism?

At the time in history when the Protestant Reformation was advancing, the principles of equality for all peoples were moving forward, and godly men like William Wilberforce, a British member of parliament who, after becoming a Christian in 1785, fought a 20-year battle to end the slave trade, which resulted in the passing of England’s anti-slave act in 1807—at the time, the Spirit of God was leading to such advancements of equality through the Protestant Reformation, but along comes Charles Darwin and his theory of godless evolution.

Origins of Modern Racism

Evolutionary theory denies that all men are created equal with inalienable rights given to them by our Creator. Instead, Darwin’s lie claims humans evolved on their own from lower life forms, with the last non-human link being the apes.

The core principle of evolutionism is that the strong survive to pass along their genes, which are better, more fit, than the weaker specimens whose genes don’t survive and, thus, die out. Through this process of “natural selection,” the better, more advanced, more fit, members of a species produce offspring with ever-improving traits, and the species evolves into ever more advanced, improved, adapted organisms. The strong will eventually kill off the weak for the betterment of the species.

Darwin applied this godless view to humanity in his book The Descent of Man, where he spelled out his racial theory:

The Western nations of Europe … now so immeasurably surpass their former savage progenitors [that they] stand at the summit of civilization. … The civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate and replace the savage races through the world. (p. 156). https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Page:Descent_of_Man_1875.djvu/172

Darwin’s cousin, Sir Francis Galton, inspired by Darwin’s work, pioneered eugenics; in his book Inquiries into Human Faculty and Its Development, he wrote:

[This book’s] intention is to touch on various topics more or less connected with that of the cultivation of race, or, as we might call it, with “eugenic” questions, and to present the results of several of my own separate investigations.

This is, with questions bearing on what is termed in Greek, eugenes, namely, good in stock, hereditarily endowed with noble qualities. This, and the allied words, eugeneia, etc., are equally applicable to men, brutes, and plants. We greatly want a brief word to express the science of improving stock, which is by no means confined to questions of judicious mating, but which, especially in the case of man, takes cognisance of all influences that tend in however remote a degree to give the more suitable races or strains of blood a better chance of prevailing speedily over the less suitable than they otherwise would have had. —Galton 1883, pp. 24–25

Darwin’s godless evolutionary theory led directly to eugenics, which led directly to the eugenics movements of the 20th Century, including those in the USA against African-Americans, such as forced sterilization, institutionalizations, and Human Zoos, in which black children were displayed in public with apes. Eugenics became accepted by many in the scientific world, including in psychiatry, resulting in the forced sterilization of those with mental handicaps. In Europe, this godless philosophy contributed to the rise of the Nazis, with their white supremacist philosophy and the Holocaust.

As Richard Weikart, in his book From Darwin to Hitler: Evolutionary Ethics, Eugenics, and Racism in Germany, states:

Darwinism by itself did not produce the Holocaust, but without Darwinism … neither Hitler nor his Nazi followers would have had the necessary scientific underpinnings to convince themselves and their collaborators that one of the world’s greatest atrocities was really morally praiseworthy.

And today in America, the Alt-Right and neo-Nazi groups embrace the philosophies of Darwinism and reject the principles of Jesus Christ, that all human beings are created in God’s image and are members of His family—that we are all brothers and sisters in Christ.

Satan’s Latest Battlefront

There are two antagonistic principles at war in human history: God’s principles of truth, love, freedom, the equality of all people as children of God, which led the Founding Fathers to construct the founding documents of this nation, which state that all human beings are created with inalienable rights by our Creator—and Satan’s view of godless evolutionism, the survival-of-the-fittest principles of selfishness and coercion, where people are merely animals evolved from lower life forms.

We, as Christians, war against Satan’s lies about God, including the lie that we evolved from lower life forms. We reject the lie that institutional racism is a result of Jesus, of the Bible, of Protestant Christianity; we must stand up and not be duped into siding with those forces in society that are claiming to advance racial justice through godless evolutionism and the political forces associated with it. If we want to advance the cause of God, we cannot align ourselves with the godless and give our support to forces that denounce our Savior, ridicule our godly origins, and claim that Christianity is the cause of racism.

We must return to the principles of God in how we live our lives. This is the only way to experience health, wellness, and equality. True equality is found in Jesus. We must return to the Bible, return to the truth that we—every human being of every race—are all descendants of Adam and Eve, who were created by our Creator in His image. When we do this, we will practice godly principles and embrace the truths of the Protestant Reformation:

  1. That each person is created with their own individuality, the ability to think and reason, which must be developed to its fullest potential.
  2. That God created families and that the healthiest outcomes for all people are when families function as God designed. From the Institute for Family Studies:
    • Black children from two-parent homes consistently do better than white children from single parent homes:
      • 36% of young black women from intact families have graduated from college, compared to just 28% of young white women from single-parent families.
      • 14% of young black men from intact families have been incarcerated, compared to 18% of young white men from single-parent families.
      • 13% of black children in intact families are poor compared to 33% of white children in single-parent families.
  3. We must return to evidence-based, godly understanding of our world and stop believing based on authority of office.
  4. Each person must engage in useful labor—some activity that is beneficial to their own health, welfare, as well as to their family and friends in their community.

There is a real war going on in the world today—but it isn’t a war between races; it is the same old war going on throughout all human history, a war of two cultures—the culture of truth, love, liberty—equality of all humans created in the image of God versus lies, fear, selfishness, which are the godless evolutionary survival-of-the-fittest methods. It is up to you to choose on which side of this battle you will be found.

Testimony 18

The Healing the Mind DVD set tarted me on a journey that has changed my relationship with our loving God more significantly than any other study, and brought me to your book and Bible study podcasts, which I now listen to daily, thanks to the availability of archived content on your site and on iTunes.

I’m a native Ghanan, but am currently in France for my master’s degree. Prior to this, during my final years at undergraduate studies in Ghana, I was introduced to your ministry and I’ve been immensely blessed by what you share, especially about the Design and Imposed Laws. God richly bless you for that.

One of the first things I did when I arrived in France was to buy all four of your books. They not only helped me, but those I shared them with. I shared the message with an atheist student and I marveled at how God worked mightily in his life. Today this person shares the Love of God with others and debunks theories of who God is not. I want to share what you present in your “Heavenly Sanctuary and Investigative Judgment” pamphlet, because the message brought rest to my soul and I live today as a healthy person.

God bless you so much and your ministry.

Michael A., Ghana

 

Testimony 23

I would just like to add my voice to the many people who, I believe, must have contacted you to express their appreciation for the “Healing the Mind” DVDs. I’ve been listening to your Bible study class discussions for many years and I’ve been personally blessed by your research and teaching about the character of God.

L. G., Oakland, MI, USA

 

Testimony 29

Thank you for all of your work to correct misconceptions about God’s character. So many people that my husband and I have talked to seem to be against the natural law construct and view it as “errant” and “dangerous.” Having learned more about it through your blogs and lessons, I don’t really understand why they view it that way, except that it means they have to relearn theology they have known for their entire lives. But I’m so excited to relearn this. For the past few years I have been questioning how I could trust a God who punishes arbitrarily and is full of wrath for those who don’t obey His commands. That view made me afraid to “mess up” or “not be good enough,” even within my relationship with God. I really appreciated the point you bring out about God not wanting us to serve Him because we are afraid, but because we love Him.

Melissa H., IN, USA

 

Testimony 72

I am blown away by the truth that you present. God’s Design Law makes so much sense! You have validated my impression that, if God is love, He would not kill those who don’t want to know him. If God gives us choice, then how can He destroy us if our choice is not to follow him. Thank you for opening my eyes and heart to the pure love of God seen through Jesus. The love I now have for Jesus is deeper and free from condemnation. My heart has been opened to love others as Jesus loves me. May God continue to bless your God-given insight into His word and your ministry. The truth has set me free!

H. Miller, Centereach, NY

Testimony 47

I can’t even begin to thank you and your ministry enough for introducing me to the Truth about a loving and merciful God! I have my daughter and her in-laws to thank for sharing with me “The God-Shaped Brain” as well as your website. I listen to the Bible study class lessons on my daily walk. May God continue to bless your thirst-quenching ministry!

Testimony 37

Hearing Dr. Jennings’ presentations in person came at a pivotal moment in my spiritual journey that began about nine months ago, when the fault lines inherent in my belief system began to crack under questions that most reasonable people end up asking about God and His nature. These were questions I couldn’t find answers to, and they shook my faith. I was unable let it go any longer and be satisfied. My Christian experience became distant. I was afraid; the fear in me rose like thorns, pushing me away from Jesus. And then someone heard my questions and introduced me to this ministry, and my life has totally changed.

I can tell you that this new, “present truth” message is far grander and life-changing than when I shifted from being an agnostic and then a nominal Christian. It has radically altered my worldview, because it reveals a God that makes sense. It is a revolution. I believe that Dr. Jennings’ message is the final message that must go to the world. If any message could be called “righteousness by faith,” as abused as that term is by the right and the left, this is that message, because Jennings’ biblical message identifies a God who is different, whose character isn’t an impossible contradiction.

I walk this path now without fear. I see people differently, and the Holy Spirit burns in my heart. Many call Dr. Jennings’ message false and compromising, but it isn’t false, because I’ve seen the fruits within my mind and body. It is not compromising, because in this message is the only road to holiness that makes any sense. No longer do I behold a pagan god who is always angry and suspicious. Instead, I behold a God who is freeing and loving, always working for our good, and giving me every reason to love my enemy even to my own death, just as Jesus pleads with us. God is good.

Testimony 58

I have been watching your videos in The Power of Love seminar and I must say these have liberated me and have improved my relationship with the Lord. I am no longer terrified of him as I was before following your teachings.

Thando N., South Africa

 

Testimony 31

It was very touching to hear the testimony of your class share how viewing God’s true character has changed their lives. My feelings are the same – there is so much freedom in knowing that God LOVES me – regardless of my… just, REGARDLESS! I’m still blown away by the true gospel, the fact that God is not ready to strike us when we fail. He is not arbitrary. He simply loves us and warns of the natural consequences because He can’t stand to see us suffer. I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS GOD!!!

Testimony 12

I have been really blessed reading your response to the various questions on your site.

K.C., OH, USA

 

Testimony 24

I wanted to thank you very much for presenting your understanding of God. I’ve always been troubled by this question: Why did Jesus have to die? Since my conversion I understood that The Father & Jesus are one, I did not have issues with that. But was there not any other way to save us than for Jesus to die? I guess I actually had a question about God – if He is so wise, how come He did not find another way? I did not see the real ‘beauty’  in the cross. Only when you explained the picture in the medical context, Jesus providing medicine for my selfishness, have I started to finally ‘see the light’. Thank you so much. Your seminar, “Healing the Mind,” are absolutely marvelous & have shared them with my family and many other people, including colleagues at work. Thanks, thanks, thanks. May God bless you abundantly in your ministry.

M. W., Australia

 

Testimony 38

Since November 2015, when I started studying Gods word from this God Is Love point of view, my life has been transformed. My troubled marriage of 15 years has been healed and my husband and I are truly happy for the first time in 15 years. Now When I read the word of God I understand it so much better and I can’t help but see Gods love radiating through the pages to humanity. Gods word is living and active and I am blessed beyond measure to be having this amazing experience. God has given me a beautiful understanding of Jn 3:16 that amazes me more and more each day. Thank you again for your ministry.

Helen D., London, England

 

Testimony 63

I’ve been very blessed by “The God Shaped Brain” and this ministry, through video and podcast, over the last few years. It’s truly opened up my eyes more to the truth about God and the importance of that truth in the present world. The message is so inviting, freeing and enlightening and MORE people need to know about it. I believe it is the last message that can truly, not only prepare a people for salvation and translation, but vindicate the character of God.

Michael V., Yonkers, NY, USA

 

Testimony 55

I was born [into the church], then I left it for many years. 10 years ago, I came back, but I could not take the hypocrisy and the lack of answers to the missing pieces. I struggled, but I did not abandon my commitment to know the truth. God is leading me to the simple understanding of his relevance and I am relearning what the church taught me as a youth… that he loves me, that he has led me to a knowledge of him such as I have never known. He is using Dr. Jennings to connect the dots that are now so apparent and hiding in plain sight!

Dean P., Arlington, TX, USA

 

Testimony 44

We were given a gift of the DVD set, “God and Your Brain,” and we just finished watching it. The truths in this are so powerful and truly an answer to a prayer. We’re seeing hope where once we thought God wasn’t answering our prayers to be free of certain mindsets. He answered with these DVDs and we are hungry for more. Thank you!

Daniel T., Easley, SC, USA
