Part II – 2019 is Coming: Accept Responsibility

by | Dec 28, 2018 | Opinion | 0 comments

It is personal and it is a group thang … learning to accept that we (our ancestors) played a hand in our own demise, and yet KNOWING that nothing that is happening right now, at THIS moment, is truly OUR fault.

No, it’s not white folks fault either. They were lied to, just like we were. Someone told them their skin color was superior to all else in the world, and they actually fell for it. And yes, they have benefited off our ancestor’s labor even though they didn’t directly do it themselves.

QUESTION 2 IN THIS SERIES: We didn’t start the fire, it’s been turning since the world’s been burning; yet … how long do we allow it to keep re-igniting? How long do we keep the flames of deception lit?

Who Did It and Why?

It’s not an easy thing to harbor the “blame whitey” excuse, then act as if we had NO hand in our own issues. Even to this day, we (a lot of us) haven’t really stopped doing what our ancestors did that got us in this vile mess in the first place. We (“The Lion of the Tribe of Judah”) were always in need of redemption, and THEY need salvation, as Gentiles ‘engrafted’ in The Vine.

However, salvation was used to point us back in the right direction. In order for us to recognize who WE truly are in the world, in the grandest of grand schemes – the reconnecting time back to HEART ROOT is absolutely necessary.

Self-Preservation Comes First

The biggest thing that set me free once and for all is acknowledging that I played a role, had a hand, that is, in my own personal problems.

Yes, I know how it happened. I loved people who did not love me, I gave to people who cared nothing for me. I took chances with folks that others said could not be trusted — only to discover they were right. I was wide open with my love and care, and I trusted people that I shouldn’t have.

I could never have been more perfect than God. He suffered abuse and punishment for crimes that He never committed.

I contributed to my own problems by being too ‘nice’ for my own good, too open, too trusting, too caring, and too vulnerable, with nothing but pit vipers slithering about in my life based on my birth inheritance. I once even believed myself an “accident” that shouldn’t have happened – born to two people who had NO business having children – especially not ME. I wasn’t made for THEM. Not ME. I was better at being a daughter than they were at being parents. Yet, I wouldn’t BE me if it weren’t for THEM.

I didn’t commit any crimes, didn’t hurt anyone, didn’t intend to steal from anyone, apologize if I did because it wasn’t on purpose. I guess I believed that my own inborn goodness would return good to me. However, all it got me was evil in return, and I opened the door to it. I accept the role I played in it. I fastened the air masks of others and forgot to put on my own first.

A CARDINAL rule of survival for me and for all others was BROKEN. “PUT ON YOUR OWN MASK FIRST,” they say…and don’t wait for an AIRLINE steward (aka ‘FLIGHT ATTENDANT’) to give you permission or explain why. If you can’t breathe, you can’t help anyone else breathe.

Those Out of Africa Who Are Not, Necessarily, Israel

Then, there are those “others” we don’t like to talk about. Yes, there is such a thing as a Black Gentile here in America, all of Black America did not come from Judah.

There is only a REMNANT of Judah left here in the Diasporas.

They are the ones who are have had their eyes opened to it in this final dispensation of grace and glory, before the ultimate end. If your eyes are not open, if you are not ‘woke’ or ‘conscious’ about it at this time, it’s not you or it’s not for or about you right now. The ones who are are just now beginning to understand who they are in the eyes and sight of God, they will be the first ones to see it before anyone else does. Their eyes will open first.

[ The Root of Jesse: …11 On that day the Lord will extend His hand a second time to recover the remnant of His people from Assyria, from Egypt, from Pathros, from Cush, from Elam, from Shinar, from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. 12 He will raise a banner for the nations and gather the exiles of Israel; He will collect the scattered of Judah from the four corners of the earth. 13 Then the jealousy of Ephraim will depart, and the adversaries of Judah will be cut off. Ephraim will no longer envy Judah, nor will Judah harass Ephraim.… Isaiah 11 ]

There are people who ‘ask for it’ when they do wrong, this is true.

They were doing something vile, or were in the act of it, and got what they deserved. Yet … How can a person who worked so hard, either Judean or Gentile, and did so much good in the world, end up in the SAME situation (or worse off) as evil people who made intentional bad choices?

The world is still in a fallen state.

Meritorious Manumission

Why Doesn’t EVERYONE Understand This?

Those who are not seeking redemption won’t be redeemed. They aren’t looking and don’t care to look.

They are RESPONSIBLE for their own state and state of mind in the end: TO BE UNCIRCUMCISED IN HEART. Heed that. It is the truth.

Accept the role we ALL play in it all and work toward that other end, the opposing end.

Now is the accepted time, today is the day. Do not LET it continue. End it.

Accept responsiBILITY and yet, also, BE responsiBLE.

Now.
