Soldiers of all nationalities and ancestry served in the Confederate Army (Most notable: Native Americans, Africans, and Mexicans). Blacks were not actively recruited until near the end of the war but were used in support roles. They were not necessarily segregated in the Confederate Army as they were in the Northern Army. The last Confederate general to surrender (two months after Appomattox), was Stand Watie, Cherokee commander of the Indian regiments in the West. Alexis de Tocqueville, a Frenchman who visited the U.S., observed that racism was far more prevalent in free states than in slave states.
Lincoln believed in an American apartheid and had a colonization plan. Under pressure from radical abolitionists, the District of Columbia Emancipation Act, 16 April 1862, finally ended slavery in Washington, D.C. In it, the president included a colonization clause calling for the immediate deportation of all Negroes out of the city upon their liberation. Educated blacks were understandably furious. Black teacher and former servant Booker T. Washington summed up the feelings of most African-Americans toward Lincoln’s colonization plan this way: “I was born in the South. I have lived and labored in the South. I wish to be buried in the South.”
Presidents Lincoln and Davis knew that slavery was about to fade away naturally. This proves that the war was not over slavery alone. Lincoln said, “The whole country looked forward to the ultimate extinction of the institution.” And Davis, in a letter to his wife in 1861, “In any case, our slave property will eventually be lost.” Many Northern historians considered Davis a fanatical racist, but he was no more racist than any other American was in the 19th century. While Lincoln was blocking emancipation, black enlistment, black civil rights, and working on his colonization plan to deport all blacks out of the U.S., Davis was busy trying to figure out a way to end Southern slavery, enlist blacks, initiate black civil rights, and incorporate blacks into mainstream society. During the war, the Davis family adopted a black boy and raised him as their own. Davis also appointed a black man as the Confederacy’s first marshal. Lincoln never appointed a black man to any position, and he would have never adopted a black child.
The communist doctrine of “redistribution of wealth” was first practiced in America by the Freedman’s Bureau. By June 1865, nearly 10,000 black families were given their own land from former deserted plantations. Later, as the owners returned and demanded the government give them their rightful property, most blacks lost their land. When President Andrew Johnson opposed the Bureau’s unconstitutional actions, the Republicans stripped power from him — impeaching him in the House and coming within one Senate vote of removing him from office. Furthermore, the military governors over the Southern states reported to General Grant, not President Johnson.
The Republicans punished Southern leaders for their rebellion by depriving them of political rights while giving civil rights to the Black race. This was the purpose of the 14th Amendment. It overruled the Dred Scott decision of the Supreme Court, which had denied civil rights to the Negro. It also disqualified nearly all the trusted leaders of the South from public office, unless a two-thirds vote of each House removed this disability. This branded the Southern leaders as criminals. When the Representatives from the Southern states went to resume their position in Washington, they were told to go home.
The South was divided up into five military districts with a Union Major General over each. There was debate as to the status of the states – were they really states or just territories. It appears they were treated as conquered territory. The Johnson governments (established for the states under his procedure) of 1865 were removed and a military governor backed by national troops took their places. Altogether, there were almost 20,000 troops quartered on the South. The registering of voters and the actual voting took place under the supervision of these troops. The Reconstruction Act elevated the freed slaves to participation in the political process, while at the same time the White man was disqualified by the third section of the still un-adopted 14th Amendment. The Negroes proceeded to enroll under the Reconstruction Act. They outnumbered the Whites in South Carolina, Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, and Mississippi. Most of them could not even read or write, so were hardly qualified to direct the destinies of a civilized state. In comparison, Negroes at this time were only allowed to vote in six Northern states. Ohio rejected Negro suffrage by over a 50,000 majority. Lincoln had proposed to the wartime military governor of Louisiana, that the right to vote might be given to the most capable Negroes, and ones who had fought in the Union armies. No one had ever proposed the wholesale bestowal of the ballot on all Negroes, qualified or not, as this Congress had done, and at the point of a bayonet. With rigged voting like this, they were able to get the Southern states to ratify the 14th Amendment (an anti-South provision which had lacked the needed two-thirds vote of the states).

Scripture Reading: Acts 8:5-11
This is the story of two men with different views that are still in effect today, 2000 years later; two men with the same first name; Simon Peter and Simon Magus. It started in the capital city of Samaria, whose name was identical with its state; Samaria.
Simon Magus was a Babylonian priest. He was a part of the Babylonian community that had been living in the former land of Northern Israel. When the Israelites had been defeated and taken into captivity by the Assyrians, they were replaced by five tribes of the Babylonians. They eventually claimed fraudulently to be the true people of God while at the same time practicing many of their previous heathen rites which came directly from Babylon.
Simon Magus swayed the whole of the Samaritan nation that all gave heed to him for a very long time. But when Simon saw the potential of Christianity, he endeavored to buy an apostleship in the Church. But Peter knew what he was attempting to do and rebuked him sternly.
After his rejection, Simon Magus began to fashion his own “Christian” church. His plan was to design a church, of which he was the head, to overthrow the true Church of God. His idea was to adulterate Babylonian teachings with some of the teachings of Christ and thus create ONE LARGE FALSE UNIVERSAL CHURCH. It was to go against the SMALL TRUE ISRAELITE-ONLY CHURCH.

Scripture Reading: Matthew 4:12-17
When Jesus launched His ministry, in what would become a three year exhortation to our race exclusively, the first thing He declared was repentance. Of all the things He could have said as the opening salvo (because it was spiritual warfare), He choose something the people really didn't want to hear, even though it had a lot to do with deliverance. They envisioned a Deliverer who would come to destroy the Romans. Their Great White Hope would have said, “Come follow me, and we shall slice the Legions to ribbons.” I hope you got the gist of the title i.e. the similarity between repentance and change. When America's first black dictator made the campaign promise for “change you can count on,” the voters didn't think he meant a Marxist change agent
Hoskins Update Report – February 2014
“If a pastor does not teach the Law, if he does not teach that we are not to have Edomites in the land, that sodomites are to receive the punishment decreed by Law, that usury is a capital crime, that man is not allowed to raise his hand against man (War Between the States, WWI, WWII) — if he attempts to integrate Jacob with Esau — you have an ‘Anti-Christ’ pastor who is teaching adultery and is helping Esau to destroy Jacob. One may even find children of Esau in their churches:
‘The stranger (Hebrew: zwer, racial alien) that cometh nigh the tabernacle shall be put to death’ Number 1:51; Numbers 18:7.
If these things are so, it is certain that God’s curse will come upon us as in the days past. Our hope lies in the knowledge that our God said:
‘Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated’ Romans 9:13.
‘I loved Jacob, And I hated Esau’ Malachi 1:2-3.
When the sons of Jacob reject anti-Christ pastors and return to the teachings of God the WORD, God will deliver them from slavery and death at the hands of the sons of Esau and their Judas-Israelites servants.”
It has been said that music is the universal language. We have various forms of the art in the many cultures of the world. In western culture, Christians have a special interest. Music began to change during the 20th century, especially after the advent of the Beatles in 1964. Not all of the change was bad, such as the concept of questioning authority, but for most of the social norms, it was a bad turn. For decades, the debate over “rock” music in the church and Christian home continued among fundamentalists. Today, the debate is over for most, and many church leaders consider everything in the field of musical genre appropriate for Christians and church worship. What a Christian personally listens to, and for what reason, is entirely up to him or her; but I would not expect any sincere Christian trying to model his or her life after Jesus Christ, to be listening to a steady diet of pornographic music. Music for the church is a different story; it has a different purpose and should be a higher character.
I believe music has declined during the 20th century from what it was in former ages. Because of this, I have developed my own philosophy about music for the church and Christian family. It is not a popular position but it is a consistent one. Most of the ancient Greek philosophers (such as Plato) and the church fathers (such as Augustine) believed that good music made a person good and bad music made a person bad. Whether this is true or not is a matter of conjecture, but there is no doubt that music does affect us.
And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts thereof. Romans 13:11-14

Scripture Reading: Matthew 16:13-17
A patient is in a hospital bed coming out of a coma from a head injury; as his vision begins to focus, seeing doctors and nurses he says, “Who am I?” As soon as I decided on this sermon title, I read a description of a movie in the TV guide that said, “An amnesiac struggles to remember who he is while getting experimental therapy at a facility for the terminally ill.” This is a fascinating question, because there are so many answers. One could say their name, their religious affiliation, their nation of birth etc. We very rarely bump into other Identity Christians, but it happened to me once when I walked into a little T-shirt shop and the proprietor asked me, “Do you know who you are?” And I said without hesitation, “I’m an Israelite” and he just about fell off his chair. Nobody identifies themselves racially these days, because it’s not politically correct. In fact, to announce yourself as a Christian Israelite, hardly anybody would know what you’re talking about. And if you don’t eat pork, surely you’re some sort of converted jew. Oh, if our people only knew who we really are. Our race has sustained a traumatic head injury and collectively we suffer from spiritual amnesia. Thousands of denominations experiment on your mortal soul; their dead churches even plaster the words ‘life’ and ‘living’ on the front edifice. But, it is our faith that restores the focus to clearly remember who we are while we’re alive. We are “the children of God” who hath been quickened, becoming the mature “sons of God” and “heirs of the promise.”

Scripture Reading: Isaiah 55:7-11
We’ve covered quite a bit of territory concerning the writing of Scripture from men who were inspired by God to convey the Lord’s unadulterated thoughts as to which way we should go in this life. It’s been referred to as an owner’s manual, which is appropriate for ‘heirs of the promise.’ The will of God is bequeathed to certain beneficiaries, but they must follow the instructions of the will in order to inherit the Kingdom of God.
Most ministers call Abraham a “Jew” without justification or Scriptural evidence. Preachers refer to Moses and the ancient Israelites who came out of Egypt as “Jews.” Why? It is because they are taught to do so in their colleges and seminaries (controlled by jews). The book of Exodus calls them Israelites, the House of Jacob, Hebrews, Israel, and the children of Israel. Never are any of this race called “Jews.”
The 12 tribes heraldry and symbols used by the ancient Israelites have still survived to this day and are found amongst European banners, coat of arms and national icons. Click to view the video ...
