Abraham, the Father of three religions was a Nomad and His race was the brown race. Even though society does not acknowlege a brown race, most of the world is brown. The brown race can get whiter, for white or darker for black, depending on the environment. In other words, man is the one that is preoccupied by race. God does not look at race for He made them all. It is a sin to discriminate against race because if you do, you are mocking God whom made us all. Repent of that sin and you will realize that what is in the heart of men is more important than the outward appearance. I bet God is tired of His creation making such a big deal about race to make them feel superior to others. God never changes and He is the one that matters. If you feel superior because of your race, watch out for Satan.

JaH did not created a race, but people that are in is image. We are all one.

Eric, you are right. Now put it in a way that people now a days can understand. I am saying why is there so much prejudice? It is rampant in the Christian and non Christian people. I know that we are all one. The soul of people is the image of God for He is spirit, that is why He sent Jesus Christ to earth so that we can know God for the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are one, the true God.

A white Missionary was asked by an African boy, "Was Jesus Black?".
The answer "No" brought great disappointment, and a "You white people have all the good things!"
The Missionary thought as an Israelite, his skin would not have been white - so said, "No, I think Jesus was half-way between me and you".
The little african boy shouted, " Jesus is for everyone!"

I often wondered what it means to be "created in the image of God" when God is noncorporeal. Tony Flores answered my query, so simple, really! And after all this time, 67 years to be exact, I am finding this out. As soon as I read it the light bulb went off in my head and I 'got it'. It is indeed, the soul of people that are created in the image of God, for our soul is noncorporeal. Our Father said that we will find Him when we search for Him with all our heart. So if there is something in the Bible that has not been answered for you, don't stop reading, God will reveal it to you in His time.
