We have arrived at a unique time in America when four issues - racism, slavery, salvation, and the Bible - are all sharing center stage. None of these are new issues, yet each has been an important ingredient in what is currently happening. Incidents of violence, sparked by racist dog whistles, many by prominent officials, seem to show up on our screens daily. Much is being said about slavery and how to undo hundreds of years of inhumanity. The idea of salvation has been completely redefined as a political position. The Bible is used as an instrument of war rather than an aid to life. Speaking as an experienced pastor, student of history, and leader of people, Dr. Nathaniel T. Powell, provides an insightful study of how these four issues have brought America to a bad place. Reading this book is like going to your doctor for a thorough physical. No stone is left unturned in determining what needs to happen to restore the patient to health. "Racism, Slavery, Salvation, and the Bible" is well-researched and fully documented. The reader will have a new understanding of who we are as a nation and how we got to this point once the last page is closed. Hearing terms like "white privilege," "reparations," and "systemic racism" stir up debate, primarily because they are not understood. Dr. Powell dives deep into the history and meaning of racial issues and then presents it in an easily understood manner. Then, with a pastor's heart, he carefully describes the current situation in America, how we got to this point, and, more importantly, what needs to happen to move on to a better place. "Racism, Slavery, Salvation and the Bible" is a timely book for everyone, not just for Blacks. These are issues that impact all of us and will only be solved when we better understand one another. Dr. Powell goes a long way toward making that understanding a reality.

If we want to understand contemporary American culture wars, we must first come to grips with the culture wars of the nineteenth century. Many current social evils can be explained by our nation's failure to remove slavery in a biblical way. But who is qualified to talk about such things? What is a biblical view of racism? And why do the Christian answers to such questions so infuriate the radical left and the radical right? This collection of essays lays out some of the answers from a view unafraid of historic biblical orthodoxy.

No Longer Slaves brings the ancient New Testament message into conversation with African American culture. Twenty centuries after Paul penned Galatians, American culture in general and American Christianity in particular continue to struggle with the problem of race relations. Our challenges are not identical to those faced by Paul and the Galatians. Yet, when one reads Galatians through the lens of African American experience, striking similarities emerge. In No Longer Slaves, Brad Braxton helps us see that race relations is a central issue in Galatians. Paul believes that Christ came in order to unite Jews and Gentiles. The church was intended to be amulti-ethnic community in which persons of different backgrounds co-existed harmoniously. Any effort to compel Gentiles to live as Jews is an invalidation of the freedom of the Gospel. Galatians offers us a portrait of an early Christian leader and community sorting out complex social issues. No Longer Slaves explores the concept of liberation in African American experience. It entails a discussion of American slavery. Rather than depicting African Americans simply as victims of the crimes of slavery and segregation, Braxton describes the creative cultural and religious responses of African Americans to their oppression. He employs a type of reader-response theory that considers the experiences of the reading community as a lens through which texts are read. His discussion of methodology exposes the reader to some of the issues in the current debate without becoming burdensome to the non-specialist. The remainder of the book is an interpretation of Paul's letter to the Galatians. Although Braxton takes seriously the original context of Galatians and his exegesis engages the Greek text, he offers a contemporary theological reading that privileges the history, experiences, and concerns of African Americans. Those who are concerned about the connection between Christianity and ethnicity will find this interpretation intriguing and challenging. Chapters in Liberation and African American Experience are Introduction," *Liberation: Rationales and Definitions, - *Blackness: Biology and Ideology, - and *African American Biblical Interpretation. - Chapters in A Reading Strategy for Liberation are *Reader-Response Criticism and Black and Womanist Theologies, - *The Bible and Authority in Reader-Response Criticism, - and *The African American (Christian) Interpretive Community. - Chapters in Galatians and African American Experience are *Introduction, - *Historical Overview, - Interpretations, - and *Conclusion. - Includes a bibliography. Brad Ronnell Braxton, PhD, is the Jessie Ball DuPont Assistant Professor of Homiletics and Biblical Studies at Wake Forest University Divinity School in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. He is an ordained Baptist minister and for five years served as Senior Pastor of Douglas Memorial Community Church in Baltimore, Maryland. "

"And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great sub-stance." - Genesis 15:13-14 For most of our lives we've been taught that the church has replaced Israel, Israel migrated and mixed with all nations, and that God no longer cares about Israel... but if that's the case, how can the church trust anything that comes out of the mouth of God if he'd just back out on all the promises made to Israel? + God never abandoned Israel. + Christianity did not replace the nation of Israel. + Much of Christian doctrine was designed to reinforce white supremacy. One of the biggest travesties of the Transatlantic Slave Trade is that black culture prior to coming to America was completely erased on purpose. What couldn't be erased was eventually white washed until we were so uncertain of our identity that we began to identify with two lands... African American... + In the late 1400s Portugal began deporting black Hebrews to the West Coast of Africa. + European journals written before and after the Transatlantic slave trade confirm Hebrews were black. + French, English, Portuguese, and German maps show The Kingdom of Judah located in Africa. + A 1766 Spanish map has Negroland marked as "populated by Jews." The reason it is so hard to uncover our true history is because of Eurocentric Christian racism. Most of them and many of our own people simply refuse to look at the evidence, so they deflect in order to avoid it. + "Salvation isn't about race." + "Why does it matter?" + "You need to repent." They will say anything to keep us from teach OUR HISTORY from OUR BOOK. They want to teach the deception of a light, Middle Eastern, and olive Israel, while ignoring all the references to black Hebrews in the Bible. + Moses, Joseph, and Paul were all mistaken for Egyptians. + Job said, "my skin is black upon me." + Solomon's lover said, "I am black but lovely." When questioned about these inconsistencies with what we see in movies and on TV, the common Christian cop out is to try to explain it away as meaning something other than what the text indicates. + Daniel describes Christ as having skin the color of bronze in the book of Daniel. + John describes Christ as having skin the color of bronze in the book of Revelation. + Christ describes his own feet as the color of bronze in the book of Revelation. Ultimately, this book was written for TRUTH SEEKERS that want to know the true history of black people in America. This book isn't about race based salvation, God caring about skin color, or any other false reason false teachers look for in order to avoid the subject. The truth is that scripture was not written about Europeans, it wasn't written by Europeans, but it does address what's coming to the Europeans as payment for everything they've done on the planet. Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:31-32

This is a book of hope; hope for the future and hope for the present. I have seen a cancer in American society grow over the years and I felt the need to address it in the most powerful manner possible, through God. Race relations and racism in my opinion are in a state of regression in the United States. I see and hear things as an American black these days that I never thought I would see and hear in my lifetime. I sense an uneasy calm between the races that does not need to be there, held in place only by the vague concept of political correctness. But the heart is still active and no one knows how it will act next. In addressing racism, in this brief work, I redefine it, explain why it is here and offer solutions for its eradication. I require a trust form the reader and a partnership. Self-less trust is one of the most fundamentally lacking elements in American society today and this is what I request from the reader. The inclination to discriminate because of race comes from a number of sources. I have identified pride, ignorance, fear, jealousy and hatred as some of the key motivations. I have sought to quell these negative emotions through the Bible and in solving these emotions, solve the actions they lead to, including racism. Next I seek to explain, through the Bible, how racism came into being and why it continues to be; then I discuss the victim and racism, what the victim experiences; next I seek to show, still through Bible scripture, how we can curb our worst natures through the Bible; lastly I show how solving racism can lead to solutions to other problems both here in America and in the world. To make this all happen I must have the readers trust and courage. Solving racism is an easy task. It takes only a shedding of self. Selfishness is the biggest obstacle to cooperation and unity.

Intended as a spiritual guide, this book not only helps individuals understand the roots of the sin of racism, but also helps them learn to overcome it.

Black Theology, Slavery and Contemporary Christianity explores the legacy of slavery in Black theological terms. Challenging the dominant approaches to the history and legacy of slavery in the British Empire, the contributors show that although the 1807 act abolished the slave trade, it did not end racism, notions of White supremacy, or the demonization of Blackness, Black people and Africa. This interdisciplinary study draws on biblical studies, history, missiology and Black theological reflection, exploring the strengths and limitations of faith as the framework for abolitionist rhetoric and action. This Black theological approach to the phenomenon of the trans-Atlantic slave trade and the institution of slavery draws on contributions from Africa, the Caribbean, North America and Europe.
