The Good Ship #Jesus

 

“The name of the first slave ships to kidnap Black folks from Africa was the Mother Mary and The Good Ship Jesus. The front of The Good Ship Jesus had two Africans bound back to back. The head of all Christian churches, the Pope, said that your ancestors were infidels and it was the white man’s Christian duty to enslave them and teach them about Jesus Christ. Christians built churches over top of the slave dungeons where Africans were shackled. Every Sunday your great, great, great grandparents would hear them singing hymns to Jesus while many of them lay dying on the dungeon floors. If that were you could you imagine your grandchildren singing about Jesus and telling people he died for them when it was actually you who died for them? Columbus killed millions of the indigenous population here in America; literally telling some of them he was sending them to meet Jesus.”

Here in Florida well the south in general we have many many churches, lined up on the same street like houses and their continuing to build. I used to like the stories and that one ol’ big lady in the front of the church that would sing them old slave songs from back in the day. You could never comprehend what she was singing but it was soothing to my ears every time we would walk past them after Sunday school classing on the way back to the seats with our parents. I never felt comfortable in church, it always felt unnatural and my parents where so strict and forceful about everything. Seems like I never had the right clothes to wear to church and I used to hate dressing up, Monkey suits I would call them! The service would last about 2 hours if the pastor wasn’t feeling too in the spirit so me and my sister would be sitting there trying not to got to sleep all the while starving as well. We went to the same church for years but when we got into our teens my mom started going to different churches, church hopping I would call it. During that period I observed different types of pastors. You have the pastors that solely talk about money that have the collection plate being passed around like a joint. There are those that talk about nothing besides what’ll get you into hell, and I only experienced a couple that actually gave good advice through the scriptures that help you better your life. At the time all I could see was confusion, misdirection because neither school or church was teaching me how to cure anything, earn a living or even attain happiness. Growing up in the church I saw no progression coming from the church, so as I ventured out to college I never returned. I found direction from God himself through people, directly in my head through thoughts, dreams, real life situations, music, books, youtube, the internet and other unexplainable encounters. Jesus never came up as he showed me true history not taught to me through popular outlets. I was blind to the truth until my cousin showed me Ashra Kwesi’s African Origins of Christianity down in Miami school. The best advice I’ve been given is to learn everything I was not taught in school and that’s when I started actually learning real truth and useful information that has helped me get to where I’m at today, mentally, physically and financially.
