  • A Message for Law Keepers, Preparing for Rulership, Part 4
    A MESSAGE FOR LAW KEEPERS, PREPARING FOR RULERSHIP, PART 4 First, I would like to give all praises, honor, glory and respect to our Great, Good, and Terrible Black God Yahweh and to His most Worthy, Meritorious, Exemplary, Admirable, Well-deserving and Praiseworthy Son, Yahweh Ben Yahweh. Blessed be Yahweh Ben Yahweh who comes in the name Yahweh. Praise Yahweh! Welcome to our Twenty-Second Annual Feast of Tabernacles 6005, in the place, Montreal, Quebec, Canada where our Illustrious Redeemer and Deliverer, Yahweh Ben Yahweh has chosen to place His most Heavenly and Numinous name. And welcome to this seminar entitled, “A Message For Law Keepers, Preparing For Rulership, P. 4.” I would like to thank our Father Yahweh Ben Yahweh for giving me the blessed opportunity to stand before His children, this day to present this message of truth. Our Father is so Wonderful, that He has allowed all who will receive Him to take of His Divine Mind and has given us the power to become the sons of Yahweh. So listen with an open mind as we delve a little more into the wisdom and knowledge of our rulership as the lawgivers with Yahweh Ben Yahweh in the Theocratic Government of Yahweh. Praise Yahweh! In Part 3 of “A Message For Law Keepers, Preparing For Rulership, we journeyed on an historical odyssey of our ancestors in the book of Daniel and examined the trials and tribulations that they had to suffer as a result of being faithful keepers of the laws of Yahweh. First, we established that the events taking place in the past did not happen to another nation, but they involved our Hebrew predecessors from the tribe of Judah, who were taken captive in the land of Babylon.

  • Black Hebrew Israelites
    BlackChristian Apologetics Hebrew & Research Ministry Israelites by Ryan Turner (/ryan-turner) edited by Matt Slick (/matt-slick) Founder: Various leaders for different sects. There is no primary leader today. First started in the United States before the Civil War. Headquarters: Various major cities across the United States with state chapters. There does not appear to be a central headquarter of leadership for the movement. Membership: Approximately 200,000 among the dozens of offshoot branches. Approximately 50,000 Black Hebrews, while the number who follow some form of Judaism (broadly defined) could be up to 200,000. There is a vast amount of diversity amongst various groups who claim to be descendants of the ancient Israelites. It is difficult to distinguish between all the various offshoots and movements within the broad movement of "Black Jewish Identity." Therefore, the range of possible adherents could be between 40,000-200,000. Origins: One sect originated before the Civil War. There was another sect founded later in 1896, the Church of God and Saints of Christ, by William Crowdy. In the 1980s other sects began to appear, such as those lead by Yahweh Ben Yahweh (1935 - 2007), or Hulon Mitchell, Jr. There are a number of other sects of this broad Hebrew Israelite movement known as the Commandment Keepers, The Law Keepers, House of Judah, and the African Hebrew Israelites of Jerusalem, just to name a few.1 Practices: 1. Some groups stand on the street corners of major cities and condemn people for their allegedly false beliefs while using vulgar language.2 The Hebrew Israelites are very combative and generally do not want to listen when their views are challenged.3 2.

  • THE WAR in HEAVEN: the Unwarranted and Unprecedented Attack on the Nation of  (Yahweh) by the U.S
    THE WAR IN HEAVEN: The Unwarranted and Unprecedented Attack on The Nation of (Yahweh) by the U.S. Justice Department in its PROJECT MEGIDDO Report INTRODUCTION This article deals with how and why warlike strategies have been employed against The Nation of Yahweh to foster and incite hatred and violence against it and all of its citizens and followers. The Nation of Yahweh consists of a sovereign Hebrew Israelite people who share common customs, origin, history, culture, language, and religious belief based upon the commandments, judgments, laws, and statutes of God, , as taught by His Son, (Yahweh Ben Yahweh). The hostile assault upon The Nation of Yahweh was initiated by “words of war” currently found in the Project Megiddo report. The report was first issued by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in October 1999 for the supposed purpose of assessing possible acts of domestic terrorism that might be sparked by the turn of the new millennium.1 National criticism and clamor about Project Megiddo’s reliability and relevance2 —only partly because January 1, 2000 was ushered in without any signs of domestic terrorism—may result in congressional hearings in the 1 “Project Megiddo,” Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Investigation (www.fbi.gov). 2 “Christian Right Groups Protest FBI’s Warning on Extremists,” The Washington Post, January 6, 2000. OPERATION WORD WAR future. However, the publication’s real purpose must be exposed today. The real purpose for including The Nation of Yahweh in a report outlining possible terroristic acts was to discredit Yahweh Ben Yahweh and The Nation of Yahweh.

  • Nation of Yahweh Cult
    Cold Open: We got a doozy of a tale here today! Taking a break from recent stories full of insane white supremacists to tell a story full of insane black supremacists. Other side of the same coin today. The incredibly racist and also extra murder-y Nation of Yahweh cult. This especially violent cult was founded in Miami in 1979 by Hulon Mitchell, Jr., a super humble dude who told his followers that he was, you know, God in the flesh. He insisted that he be referred to by super modest monikers such as “Grand Master of All,” “the God of the Universe,” “The Grand Potentate,” “The Everlasting Father,” and of course “Yahweh ben Yahweh,” - Hebrew for “the Lord son of the Lord.” Seems a little redundant. Like asking to be called “God Lord” or “Deity God” It would’ve been more appropriate if he would’ve went by whatever “Colossal Piece of Shit” translates to in Hebrew. Yahweh ben Yahweh wanted followers who would do anything for him. Give their belongings to him. Give their souls to him. Give their bodies to him. Kill for him. He wanted a race war to break out and saw himself, obviously, on the winning side. He asked his followers to go “kill me a white devil and bring me an ear.” And he was brought ears. He built a large and powerful cult. At its peak, his empire’s value was roughly $100 million. He had over 4,000 followers, a huge temple, a four- story apartment building, restaurants, stores, houses and a hotel in Miami, and a hotel and restaurant in Atlanta as well as hundreds of white cars, vans, buses and 18-wheelers.

    Reversed racism:fundamentalist genealogies in African-American religions1 Hans Gerald Hödl As one of the consequences of the Atlantic slave trade,distinct religionsevolved among the descendants of the Africans brought to the Americas. As arule,Afro-Americans in Latin America developedtheir own religions (like SanteríainCuba or CandomblØ in Brazil),based on West or Central African cultural matrices using elements taken from other traditions the slaves were exposed to,like Christianity and Spiritism. In contrast to Latin America, in North America under colonial rule and in ante-bellum USA there emerged, for the main part, evangelicalforms of Christianity amongthe African Americans.Inthe class of those new religiousgroups outside mainstream Christianity that came into being amidst AfricanAmericans at the end of the 19th and throughout the 20th century,wefind so called “messianic-nationalist sects” (Baer /Singer) that have in common acriticism of American society,acentral myth about aglorious pastofthe “black race”,and the strive to re-establish black supremacy in agolden futureofthe “black race”. Themythicalbackground concerning genealogies of races these religions share can be described as an inversion of white dualistic racist theories within the framework of Abrahamic religions:Dark skinned Africansare either regarded as the true Hebrewsorasthe true Muslims,“whites” as members of an inferior race.Some of these groups are openly separatist, whilst others have amore integrationiststance.This paper reads the development of some of these groups on the backgroundofasketch of African-American religioushistory and interprets it as amore or less fundamentalist reactiontoasituation of incongruence. Hans Gerald Hödl is aProfessor at the Department of the StudyofReligions at Vienna University.His research and teachingactivities focus on Theory of Ritual, West African, Afro American and African AmericanReligions, Mormonism and Critique of Religion.

  • Yah's Children
    All Yah’s Children: Emigrationism, Afrocentrism, and the Place of Israel in Africa John L. JACKSON, Jr. Résumé : Cet article évoque l’histoire de l’émigration des « Israélites africains hébreux de Jérusalem », un groupe d’Africains-Américains qui ont quitté les Etats-Unis pour l’Afrique de l’Ouest (puis pour l’Afrique du Nord-Est) à la fin des années 1960. Leur voyage reposait sur une forme de sensibilité afrocentriste, sur un mélange de réponses à l’appel de Marcus Garvey pour une politique centrée sur l’Afrique, et de revendications d’une altérité africaine ontologique. En somme, les mêmes revendications intellectuelles qui commençaient tout juste à être codifiées dans le monde universitaire américain par des académiques comme Molefi Kete Asante. Je soutiens que ces « Israélites africains hébreux » donnent à voir une forme complexe d’Afrocentrisme, une version hébraïcisée qui se conforme à certaines formes canoniques d’Afrocentrisme tout en échappant à d’autres. En outre, leurs conceptions du corps aident à expliquer le manque d’intérêt qu’ils ont suscité dans les discussions plus générales de l’Afrocentrisme et de ses relations historiques et institutionnelles avec d’autres formes de contre-discours afro-centrés. Mots-clés : Afrocentricité, Juifs noirs, émigration, Israël, diaspora raciale. Abstract: This article delineates the emigration story of the “African Hebrew Israelites of Jerusalem”, a group of African Americans who left the United States for West Africa (and then “Northeast Africa”) in the late 1960s. Their journey was predicated, I argue, on something similar to an Afrocentric sensibility, a mixture of Marcus Garvey-esque calls for an African-centered politics and claims about an ontological African alterity, the same intellectual claims that were just beginning to get codified in the American academy by scholars such as Molefi Kete Asante.

AN AUTOETHNOGRAPHY OF THE PROBLEM OF MORAL EVIL AND ETHNIC SUFFERING IN BLACK JUDAISM A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR of PHILOSOPHY by Andre Eugene Key Department of African American Studies May 2011 Examining Committee Members: Nathaniel Norment, Jr., Advisory Chair, African American Studies Anthony Monteiro, African American Studies Rebecca Alpert, Religion Lewis R. Gordon, External Reader, Philosophy © Andre Eugene Key 2011 All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT What’s My Name? An Autoethnography of the Problem of Ethnic Suffering and Moral Evil in Black Judaism Andre Eugene Key Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, 2011 Doctoral Advisory Committee Chair: Nathaniel Norment, Jr. Ph.D. This study examines the problem of ethnic suffering and moral evil in Black Judaism. Black Judaism has been traditionally studied along anthropological and sociological lines, as a result, the core beliefs and theological issues which animate the faith tradition have not been the subject of critical study. This dissertation uses an African-American centered theoretical perspective and a black theology methodological approach to produce an autoethnography of my experiences living as a member of the Hebrew Israelite community. This study suggests that Black Judaism is best understood through an examination of the problem of black theodicy meaning the belief in an omnipotent and benevolent deity while acknowledging the historical oppression of African Americans. Black Judaism articulates a belief in black theodicy which asserts that African Americans are victims of divine punishment and must “repent” in order to experience liberation from ethnic suffering and moral evil in the form of anti-Black racism and white supremacy.
