Nope, any belief that says people who are not of our race (Aryans) are not capable of being Christian is a teaching that is not of Christ but of the other. Do you believe then that African Americans, people from Ethiopia, Kenya, the Congo etc. are Israelites?

I am simply amazed at what you don't seem to understand about what I am saying! Where have I ever made the claim that only white Aryan people can be Christians?

Abraham was given promises by God for his faithfulness. One of those promises was here: [Genesis 15:5] And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be. Has this promise been fulfilled by the Jews....or the Arabs?

Another...here: [Genesis 17:3-4] And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying, As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations. Has this been fulfilled by them also?

And: [Genesis 22:17-18] That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice. Have these blessings flown from Mecca....or Jerusalem?

The Israelites were taken captive 125 years before the Jews were exiled to Babylon. The Jews came back [Ezra & Nehemiah]....the Israelites did not. They were never lost. They just weren't around anymore. History lost track of them after Josephus told us where they were. I would imagine that by now most cultures of the world probably have some Israelite blood....just like the Lord had told Abraham.

In what way are these views racist to you? [Psalm 114:2]

I ask you the same question again: Do you believe then that African Americans, people from Ethiopia, Kenya, the Congo etc. are Israelites? you assert that the Israelites spread to all nations of the world, so then, Do you believe then that African Americans, people from Ethiopia, Kenya, the Congo etc. are also descendents of the Israelites?
