'Marriage Is for White People,' said an African-American kid.
"If Jesus Christ bought me an engagement ring, I wouldn't take it," a separated thirty-something friend told me. "I'd tell Jesus we could date, but we couldn't marry."

Go on and read this thought provoking article and imagine the hopelessness of the above statements.
Please, join me to pray for the African-American People lest they perish.
Revelation 19
1. And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God:
2. For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.
3. And again they said, Alleluia And her smoke rose up for ever and ever.
4. And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia.
5. And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.
6. And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
7. Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
8. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
9. And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
10. And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
11. And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14. And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, "KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS".
17. And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;
18. That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.
19. And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.
20. And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21. And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.
Revelation 19 (King James Version)
The world is full of lonely women.
Most of them are widows of wars and other widows.
Followed by loney fat women and those the world calls ugly women.
There are indeed a few good men. And you see girls and women fighting over boys and men.
I do feel for widows more than the others.
Then, I also feel for the rejected ones.
Or abandoned ones.
Now, how can we help all these lonely women?
Personally, I care for lonely women.
But, mostly widows. Because, I am a trained crisis management counselor.
I have more time for lonely women than even my so called girlfriends.
I have also seen many girls and women who parade themselves as pretty or beautiful ladies and are posing and posturing as being more in demand than those they label as "ugly". And I do make fun of them. Because, as the popular saying goes, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder".
I have two sisters and they are beautiful and very comfortable. They look like my father and their respective mothers. My father was a very handsome man and my mother was a beautiful woman. And my mother directed me in the choice of my girlfriends. And she always said no girl or woman could bluff me. So, I have even bluffed the so called beautiful and pretty girls and women in Nigeria. I befriended the most beautiful girls and ladies in Nigeria. Even Tanya Hume-Sotomi who was once the most powerful woman in Nigeria and the author of "The General's Wife". Because, she was formerly the madam of the most dreaded military leader in the history of Nigeria, the late dictator Gen. Sani Abacha. Her husband, the late Brigadier-General Sotomi was once the Camp Commandant of Gen. Abacha. And Tanya is actually from a wealthy American family in Park Avenue, New York. She is one of the most beautiful women in the world and Halle Berry reminds me of her. But Halle Berry cannot boast of Tanya's awesome silky hair. But she is now a widow. And I wonder how she would be missing her beloved husband. Because, Tanya told me how she often slept in his pyjamas whenever he was away from home and she had to sleep alone.
Who will comfort all the lonely women in the world? Who sleep with tears on their pillows.
I have decided not to comment on the late Princess Diana of England, because of the complexities of her history and to avoid indulging in petty personalities.
Here is a book written by Rev. Edmond Locklear,Jr.
You can read it.
But whether Princess Diana went to heaven or not is not for anybody to discuss. Because, no human has the right to play God in deciding who will go to heaven and who will not go there. That is strictly the business of God. Case closed.
- Distinctively different.
- Prophecy spoken when Diana married came true.
- Will prophecy take Prince William?
Has Q&A, word game. Will bless your home with greater faith.
It's the Christian's look at Diana.

I have composed the following poems in memory of Tom Fox who made the supreme sacrifice when he paid the supreme price for peace in Iraq where he was murdered after he was kidnapped along with three other members of the Christian Peacemaker Teams.
TOM FOX IN BAGHDAD
Sorry. Your Enemy is My Friend.
If you have chosen to hate
I am sorry I cannot be your playmate
Because, I have chosen to live in love and peace
To treat my fellow humans with fairness and justice
To forbid malice and prejudice
And to abhor all acts of violence
This is my lot and my sacrifice
And everybody has a price.
Sorry. Your enemy is my friend.
Tom Fox: Martyr of Peace
The dove bearing the olive branch
Wanders about in the skies
Flapping its wings as it flies
For there is no where to perch
Alas! All the trees have been cut down
The cockcrows can no longer crow at dawn
The ill wind has blown out the torch
I heard the echoes of the Banshee
In the monodies of our elegy
As the dove flutters on the body of Tom Fox
And the Phoenix perches on the Pandora Box.
Alas! The peacemaker is slain
Slain in the field of blood in Baghdad
Where everybody seems to have gone mad.
But, no martyr dies in vain
For I can still hear the echoes of your clarinet in Virginia
The chorus of our Redemption Song will echo all over America.
I am offering you the exclusive present of claiming this free classic Louis Vuitton Handbag and Wallet that is not available on any other blog, except here.
Have a great weekend.
I sing a new song for a New year
To the one I love
To my Malaysian dove
Who has shown me her enchanted face
But I am yet to hear her velvet voice.
Yet, she has spoken to me in a million and one figures of speech
She is so near to me, but yet she is millions of miles away from my reach.
Yet, whom I have chosen to love I will always truly love
For my love is as boundless as the expanse of the infinite universe
For even if the whole world falls apart
I will still treasure you in my immaculate heart
And I bring you the white rose of the dawn of spring
I will sing the new song I have chosen to sing
In the sonata of the birthday of your New year.
TOM FOX IN BAGHDAD
