RACE AND CULTURE
IMBEDDED IN CREATION

By: Al Cronkrite

Reformed theology is heavily flavored with intellectualism.  Scholastic achievements and college degrees are used to lend authenticity to theological positions and there are too many meritocratic mini-tomes written in support of what are sometimes nit-picky contentions.  These contentions sometimes blur and distort more important issues. 

Regent University graduate Steve Halbrook, a talented young Christian scholar, has written a book entitled “God Is Just; A defense of Old Testament Civil Laws”.  I was attracted to the subtitle since I also support Old Testament Civil Law.  Following the Acknowledgements, in the pages preceding the narrative, Halbrook found it necessary to include a section entitled “A Disclaimer Regarding Sources”. Particularly concerned with the Federal Vision, and Kinism he penned the following footnote:

 

”Spiritually-speaking, there are two races—the elect and the reprobates. As God
told the serpent after the Fall: “I will put enmity between you and the woman, and
between your offspring and her offspring; he shall bruise your head, and you shall
bruise his heel” (Genesis 3:15). Thus the Fall didn’t produce racial
division along physical lines, but spiritual lines. This is why the Bible forbids
Christians from marrying non-Christians, but does not forbid blacks from marrying
whites, or Hispanics from marrying Asians, etc. For Christians, when it comes to
marriage the issue is whether the other person is a Christian, regardless of skin color.”

 

There is no heresy in the paragraph but the verbiage and the emphasis are aberrant.  When the word “race” is used to differentiate between the elect and reprobates, there is nothing left to describe the numerous, physically and socially diverse, people that inhabit the various areas of God’s Creation.  They are all made in His image and all have physical similarities.  They are all sinners and all candidates for the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  Nevertheless, there are substantial differences.   Cultures are distinct, sharing different sets of “attitudes, values, goals, and practices”.  Though there has been a concerted effort by multi-cultural, one-world, elitists to confuse and destroy the meaning of the words race and culture the distinctions remain. Race and culture are related.  Different races live in different cultures and their behavior will exhibit their unique cultural influences. 

 

While it is correct that there is nothing in the Bible condemning interracial marriage, neither is there anything that encourages it.  The God of the Bible did create diverse languages and scatter the people at Babel.  Though the historical connection between Babel and racial diversity is missing racial diversity is a fact in a universe governed by the Sovereign God whose dealings with various nations and races are recorded in the Bible narrative.

 

Christian marriage across racial lines is acceptable, but the diversity God created should be respected and efforts to ignore races and cultures with the intent of bringing about a one race pagan society with a single heretical state religion is a direct confrontation to the Will of God and a grievous sin.

 

The Bible supports the family.  It records genealogy and the relationships of family members.   Marriage not only creates a union between a man and women but also brings together two families.  Proper family relationships contribute to good marriages.   Cultural diversity hampers family relationships.

 

Attempts to destroy race and culture in the United States of America are major problems in this era.  Pat Buchanan’s banishment from MSNBC (The MS is for Microsoft) is a case in point.

 

According to a tiny article in our paper NSNBC’s president Phil Griffin has banned Patrick Buchanan from the network because “he doesn’t think the book (Suicide of a Superpower) should be part of the national dialogue, much less discussed on MSNBC.  Buchanan argues that America is in the “Indian summer of our civilization”.  The book contains chapters entitled “The End of White America” and “The Death of Christian America”.  Apparently there are a least two major violations of the propaganda being promoted by our monopolistic media:  Racism – it is proper to promote many races but unpopular to promote the American racial majority.  Christianity – religious discussions of multiple religious faiths are allowed but Biblical Christianity is condemned and has been successfully discouraged. 

 

The Media will argue that they are paying their commentators and therefore have a right to censor their opinions.  There is some truth to that position but it disregards the right of the public to hear all sides of every issue.  The American media is a monopoly at both the top and bottom.  At the top it is controlled by a handful of powerful, like minded elitists and at the bottom most cities have one newspaper and the usual plethora of television channels that spew out the same biased new coverage along with buckets of degradation

 

The internet is a refreshing alternative where media censored news is available along with excellent information on almost every subject.  It is a little like the old West with freewheeling gunfighters, outlaws, sheriffs, and preachers.  There are writers that attack the establishment; there are users that attack the writers; there are clubby unions of agreeable users; there are writers that provide guesses as fact and writers that present theory as reality; there is lots of false information, but through it all a discerning reader can become well informed.  Unfortunately, many of our citizens either do not have internet access or do not have time to use it properly.

 

Banning Pat Buchanan from the media because one does not agree with his book violates freedom of speech and freedom of the press; because of the public nature of news reporting, I believe it is a violation of the First Amendment and is illegal.  However, there are vigorous urgings to terminate Buchanan and Griffin seems to be heeding them.   Zionists demand free speech for their monopolistic media as long as they can control it.

Multi-culturalism has been promoted by the Zionist controlled networks and attempts to preserve the White European Culture are targets of this assault. Wikipedia describes immigration in the United State this way “American immigration history can be viewed in four epochs: the colonial period, the mid-nineteenth century, the turn of the twentieth, and post-1965. Each period brought distinct national groups, races, and ethnicities to the United States. During the seventeenth century, approximately 175,000 Englishmen migrated to Colonial America.] Over half of all European immigrants to Colonial America during the 17th and 18th centuries arrived as indentured servants.  The mid-nineteenth century saw mainly an influx from northern Europe; the early twentieth-century mainly from Southern and Eastern Europe; post-1965 mostly from Latin America and Asia.” 

 

In 1952 Senator Pat McCarran recorded this statement into the Congressional Record: “I believe that this nation is the last hope of Western civilization and if this oasis of the world shall be overrun, perverted, contaminated or destroyed, then the last flickering light of humanity will be extinguished. I take no issue with those who would praise the contributions which have been made to our society by people of many races, of varied creeds and colors. America is indeed a joining together of many streams which go to form a mighty river which we call the American way. However, we have in the United States today hard-core, indigestible blocs which have not become integrated into the American way of life, but which, on the contrary are its deadly enemies. Today, as never before, untold millions are storming our gates for admission and those gates are cracking under the strain. The solution of the problems of Europe and Asia will not come through a transplanting of those problems en masse to the United States.... I do not intend to become prophetic, but if the enemies of this legislation succeed in riddling it to pieces, or in amending it beyond recognition, they will have contributed more to promote this nation's downfall than any other group since we achieved our independence as a nation.”

 

In a comprehensive book (available on line) entitled “Jewish Involvement in Shaping American Immigration Policy, 1881-1965: A Historical Review” Professor Kevin MacDonald writes: “The defeats of 1924 and 1952 did not prevent the ultimate victory of the Jewish interest in combating the cultural, political, and demographic dominance of the European-derived peoples of the United States. What is truly remarkable is the tenacity with which Jewish ethnic interests were pursued for a period of close to 100 years. Also remarkable was the ability to frame the argument of immigration-restrictionists in terms of racial superiority in the period from 1924-1965 rather than in such positive terms as the ethnic interests of the peoples of northern and western Europe in maintaining a status quo as of 1924.”

 

United States was never a Christian Nation but it was a nation with a predominantly Christian population.   Today, Christians are censored, mocked, vilified, and confined to the interior of their churches.  The Zionist controlled media regularly trashes Christianity and Zionist controlled organizations like the ACLU tirelessly strive to destroy the Christian religion.  Laws are being encoded that require Christians to defy the edicts of their God making obedience to God a crime against the state.  Demographics tells us that in a few short decades the European Christian culture that produced our nation will be a minority

 

Many Americans wonder how this has happened.  One of the sentences from the preceding paragraph by Professor Kevin MacDonald helps one understand.  “What is truly remarkable is the tenacity with which Jewish ethnic interests were pursued for a period of close to 100 years.”   Jewish ethnic interests worked for decades to expand immigration and remove requirements for new residents.  They worked to bring this about with a vigor that would convince a dispassionate observer that they were bent on destroying the nation.   In 1965, a new immigration act was passed that dropped skill requirements, opened the door to Asian cultures and allowed immigrants to bring in their families.  This new immigration bill introduced in the House by Congressman Emanuel Cellar and promoted in the Senate by Senator Jacob Javits, both Jewish, forever changed the culture and character of our nation.

 

Zion is a Biblical term that carries a favorable connotation for most Christians.  Unfortunately, today’s Zionism has little in common with the Bible, the Torah, ancient Israel, or the Law of Moses.  Israel is a secular state and the considerable Zionist world hegemony is secular and amoral.  With the lawless heresy of Dispensationalism providing an exploding Christian support Zionism has succeeded in a bloodless coup in the United States.  Ariel Sharon said, "We, the Jewish People, Control America, and the Americans Know it"!   

 

There are real and important social distinctions resulting from diverse races and cultures.  These distinctions cannot be ignored.  White European immigrants were the founders of the United States of America; they brought Christianity, the essential ingredient for peace and freedom.   Prior to the 1965 immigration fiasco serious consideration was given to the race and culture of immigrants. 

 

Interracial marriage is not a sin but it creates problems that unions within race and culture avoid.

 

The significance of the Jewish race in United States is a case in point.  A race that makes up about one percent of our population makes up over thirty percent of students at Harvard.  They control our media, own many of your major corporations, and hold significant sway over our government.  They consider their race superior and their accumulation of power confirmation of their superiority.  They hate Christianity and with the support of hordes of naïve Christians are in the process of using their considerable power to replace it.

 

Our schizophrenic society has made harming species of animals a crime while at the same time passing other laws that allow human species to destroy themselves.  Recognizing races and nations as God given entities does not translate into White supremacy nor does the recognition of racial differences.  These are realities that we need to be recognized and confronted.

 

The Apostle Paul said Christian workers were better to remain single.  He did not condemn marriage but believe being single allowed more time to spread the Gospel.  Marriage across racial lines is similar; interracial marriage is not a sin but marriage within ones race and culture is superior.
