"The Bible began to be written 3500 years ago..." and the last book was written "between AD 50 and AD 100."
It wasn't "given to us by the white man". It came to us from the Hebrews and early Church.
It was merely translated from Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek into English.
The translators had no part in writing it, they merely put it in another language.
You can read the book entitled The Battle for the Bible by David Marshall for more information.
This isn't a race issue it is a moral issue since blacks were sold into slavery by their own black people.
What would lead them to exploit their own race? Sin. Sin is where our anger should be targeted and not on any race of people since we all descended from the same people.
The Bible and the founders from the Protestant churches such as the Baptists, Methodists, Lutherans etc do not acknowledge the Pope as being Christian. Rather they all point to the office of the pope as antichrist.
Martin Luther said "the papacy is the...antichrist" (D'Aubigne book 6 chapter 9)
Cotton Mather (Congregationalist) said that the pope is "Antichrist" (rom the book written by LeRoy E Froom, The Prophetic Faith of Our Fathers Vol 3 page 113)
Thomas Cranmer an Anglican said "the pope" is "antichrist hinself" (Works by Cranmer Vol 1 p 6-7)
So, the Bible is not the problem. It has been abused and misused but it doesn't justify racism nor oppression and just because people have done wrong things in the name of Christ and His Word doesn't mean that the Bible is the issue.
We could take the time to discuss all the Christians who have used God's word to elevate the black race such as Martin Luther King Jr and others .
The Bible holds the answers for the problem of our nation. Don't look to men as the standard, look to Jesus and let Him show you the truth of the Word.
