We live in an age of “relativism," an age of "no absolutes." Rev. Linda Seatts, a minister of truth wants to set the record straight. There is a lot of truth that has been smothered and as an agent of God, she brings the truth in The Truth About the Superior Life: A Book to Resurrect the lives of African-Americans crucified by the lie. This anointed book is about Black History, our African roots in the bible, racism and the solution to superiority/inferiority.
There’s a saying that if you don’t know where you came from, how can you know where you are going. My question to you is do you know where you are going; and if you don’t—why?
The Superior Lie speaks clearly and plainly about the infrastructure of the United States and the racist belief system embedded within this structure.
This book is about the grip of white supremacy and how African-Americans can break the grip, and shake off, “it’s the white man’s fault,” mentality and bring out our greatness that is within.
This book will reveal the “lie” the “Superior Lie” that one race of people is better than other groups. Too many of our people (I am African-American) have bought into the lie which have led to crucified lives of self-hatred, hatred of each other and low self-esteem. We are descendants of royalty, warriors, inventors, mathematicians, astronomers, entrepreneurs and spiritually strong people.
Do you know that an African man founded the first civilization after the great flood in the days of Noah thou-sands of years before the birth of Christ?
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1:1
God existed from the very beginning because He was the beginning. He created the heavens, the earth and all mankind.” After creating the world, God said,
“Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” (Gene-sis 1:26-27. )
God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.” (Gen. 2:7.) It was the breath of God that gave us life. A life that only He can give!
It is safe to say that God is the only Superior being who is over all, above all, through all--He is all!
There were four rivers that flowed from the Garden of Eden; the Pishon; Gihon, Tigris and the Euphrates.
“It has been revealed plentifully in scripture geo-graphically and physiognomically that the Garden of Eden was located in Africa somewhere near, or pos-sibly in Ethiopia.”
“In Genesis 2:7-14, following the creation of the first man, the Pishon River which compasseth “Havilah” (the area Havilah was located in Africa. It attained its name from a Black man named Havilah, who was the second son of Cush –“Ethiopia.”)
Genesis 10:6-7 is affiliated to Adam’s environment. Also, the Gihon River which compasseth “Ethiopia: (same as Cush) from the Garden of Eden, is men-tioned as being part of Adam’s vicinity.” (4)
Do you know that the African race came from the de-scendants of Ham the son of Noah? Do you know that the first born son of Ham, was named Cush which is the father of the African peoples? Cush which means “black” was the father of the first warrior in the Bible named Nimrod who orchestrated the building of the tower of Babel (Gen. 10:8).
Did you ever hear someone say, “Come here you little Nimrod?” Well they were referencing Nimrod a black warrior in the book of Genesis in the Holy Bible.
Many bible scholars, theologians and preachers are aware of our rich heritage but purposely do not teach it nor preach about it. Which is another way of oppressing us by preaching the curse whether than the truth.
Yes, Ham, the son of Noah did not cover his father when he saw him lying naked. Some believe that just like God covered Adam and Eve when they were naked in the garden, Ham should have covered his dad and because he didn’t cover his dad, Noah was angered and cursed Ham’s son, Canaan.” Ham wasn’t cursed, his son Canaan was cursed. (Gen 9).
Cush wasn’t cursed, it was Canaan who was cursed. It has been said that the reason why blacks were “dark-skinned” and enslaved was because we were cursed and that is furthest from the truth. Noah’s curse wasn’t directed toward any particular race, but the curse was directed at the Canaanite nation, a nation God knew would become wicked (See the book of Joshua). Don’t buy into the lie. Our slavery further proves the fact that we came from a long line of survivors and warriors such as Nimrod!
Since we come from such a strong heritage-- what happened to our strength, determination and will to sur-vive?
Haters! When you are somebody of substance there will be haters that come along who also want to be some-body and rather than sharing the platform some white supremacists wanted to own the platform and everybody on the platform. We on the other hand wanted freedom and equality but white supremacists wanted control, and power.
The strategy of the white supremacists was to destroy the “royal black family” through slavery and the genocide of millions of our ancestors. They stole our patents, inventions and tried to destroy our mind, body and soul. But rather than destroying our ancestors, they in fact made our ancestors more determined to overcome the Superior Lie!.
Excerpt
What makes a good person is what's inside--what's inside your heart. Cars, houses, skin color doesn't make a person superior. It is the character and substance within a person--honesty, integrity and compassion that makes us who we are. We cannot allow material things measure who we are as a person.
Timeless wisdom and advice on the art of living for today’s young and old: The art of thinking, the art of loving, the art of working, the art of leadership, the art of growing old.
