The REPARATIONS Dilemma - Political or Biblical, Entitlements or Justice
WHY I BELIEVE IN SOME FORM OF REPARATIONS
I believe whatever is revealed that comes from scripture......not from a political sense, but from a biblical sense.
In Exodus 12:33-36, The children of Israel, on their way out of 400 years of slavery, God directed them to request from their neighbors, silver, Gold, etc...and gave them favor to receive the wealth of Egypt....He gave them the reparations of 400 years worth of wages for free labor in ONE night.

There comes a time my friends, when people get tired of being plunged across the abyss of humiliation, where they experience the bleakness of nagging despair.

A Cry for Justice
A Cry for Justice
Luke 18:1 And he (Jesus) spoke a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; Luke 18:2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man: Luke 18:3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Grant me Justice against mine adversary. Luke 18:4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; Luke 18:5 Yet because this widow troubles me, I will grant her, Justice lest by her continual coming she weary me. Luke 18:6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge says.
Luke 18:7 and shall not God give justice to His elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?
Luke 18:8 I tell you, he will give justice to them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?"
