The System is Corrupt!

We love Bro. Pres. Obama but we do have to take him to task like any other government offical!!! I wish the people in general but black folk in particular would do this more often maybe we would have had a different Mayor of the City of Chicago? The Brotha is just sayin...

"Rap artist Lupe Fiasco says he has no problem taking President Obama to task, even though it might not go over well with some of the fans of his music. "I respect him. And I love him as a brother," says the Chicago native, whose long-awaited third album "Lasers" is out this week."

 

The system is corrupt! That's the hardcore truth. However, it is not all the Bro. President's fault.  But we do have to take him to task like any other gov't offical. He sure didn't get us into the mess this country is in but he does have a duty to make corrections.  Bottom line is this system has to be re-vampt because it is not beneficial for poor, marginalized, and working class people of the country today.  The masses of the people are still suffering daily especially people of color.  Truth is, like some folk have said corporate interests control America and the World... "to hell with the little man!"

Which is why if we're smart we'd become more serious and get prepared for what is about to go down. Speaking from a scriptural perspective the War of Armageddon is in motion it's not a matter of if but when.  "The God is angry with this World and current system of things. And he intends to set His New World Order in place." So, if we think by voting and particpating in this system that we're gonna change what has been done since its inception, then we truly are a foolish people!  This reminds me of the definition of insanity!  Sure we gained some things over the years but at the end of the day our circumstances as a people are worst off than they ever been. We better wake up a see the writing on the wall before it's too late!

Peace, Blessings, & Overstanding!!!

Speaking Truth to Power: The Signs of the Time

"We must always be political. I think that culture, for example is always very political. It always has been and always will be....because a culture represents the values, the values for which one fights. If one is fighting for a revolution, one is talking about more than just changing governments and power, and that is changing the value system. What carries that value system is one's culture.... -Bro. Rondu Allah

The statement of above reminds me of the Master Teacher Yeshua (Isa, Jesus) of 2000 years ago and what he stood for during his time.  He upset the value and power system of his day and that is why he was hated.  In our day he would be described as a revolutionary.  Currently we don't have many among us like Jesus who challenge the value and power system(s) of our day.  The only one I can think of who even comes close in our time is Farrakhan...my disclaimer is this, I'm not a registered Muslim in the Nation, so my opinion is totally un-biased for those critics out there who may say well... "you're a Follower, so naturally your opinion will be in favor of. 

It doesn't take rocket science to recognize when you have a special man among you, regardless what your religious faith is, you know when you see and hear a man of God.  Furthermore, no matter your religious faith, they all are rooted in the Practitioner standing against evil and being a person of righteousness.  So, if you agree with those core beliefs which are the core beliefs of every monotheistic religious system.  You know who this man Farrakhan is.  I don't know of many Christian preachers or Jewish scholars who can teach Bible & Torah like this man does.  And I darn for sure, don't know to many Islamic scholars who can teach Qur'an like that man.

All I'm saying is this, regardless whether you agree, we all can agree that we are in a very bleak time today like has never been seen before.  The lack of morality, lack of decency, the lack of humanness, and lack of love we are seeing today is a sign that a New World Order is needed.  Not the one the purveyors of socioeconomic and sociopolitical control and domination want to bring in but the New World Order that is spoken of in all of divine Holy Scriptures.  Bottom line is this, we better take heed to the signs of the time because it's not a matter of if but when.  The God is angry with this world and it is apparent that this is so based on the socioeconomic, spiritual and sociopolitical un-rest in the land today, the various calamities, pestilence, and the yearning for leaders who are transparent and un-afraid to speak truth to power is forever a cry today, ..."There is a Balsam in Gilead"

Figuratively speaking there is a bomb in the Gilead of our day and it is ticking--we need a Balsam (balm) instead of a bomb today! .  My prayer is that when it does go off, that me and my loved one's are prepared.  I pray for righteous among us that we a paying attention to the time and are not in loss.  I pray that God's mercy is extended among those He loves and I even pray for the enemy that God's light will shine upon them.

Scriptural & Literary Support:

"We talk Christ like the grocery store talks apples...you can't make mockery of him..." "We're afraid to walk with Jesus because we're afraid to go through what he had to go through." -Farrakhan

"There is a balm in Gilead
To make the wounded whole;
There is a balm in Gilead
To heal the sin-sick soul."
