A new standard for a new millenium,
By Reginald Thomas (OKC, OK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: No Apology Necessary: How hidden prophecies in the Old Testament foretold the tragedy of slavery and give the answers to racial tension in America (Paperback)
I am a spirit filled pastor who is also a black american in Oklahoma City Oklahoma. I was also raised in the midst of racial tension, although it probably was a bit more subtle than that of the authors'. My parents insisted that God had created us equal and treated all races the same, according to our christian faith. I've never been raised to hate other races but I have certainly felt the hatred and been the object of attack in many different situations. This book, coming from the authors life and experiences, summed up by the Word of God, reveals what has been going on in the earth since Noah. A dark skinned people who knew God spread out in different directions and covered the earth. Mixed marriages influenced their faith and many turned away from God. The american black man's ancestors knew God and worshipped him and were the source of knowledge and industry to the world. But they turned from serving God to the worship of idols. The book states "Idoltry = (equals) Slavery. Every time any nation left God to worship idols that nation found it self enslaved. Furthermore, the author proves scripturally that God sought to prevent this from happening by sending the prophets to prophesy against Egypt and Ethiopia (ancestors to the american black) urging them to repent. The result of their disobedience was, brother against brother, being enslaved by their brothers, being sold to serve our European brother (I believe was stated to be Japheth) and sent naked and in chains on ships to another country of which they had never been. The first book placed in our ancestors hand on american soil was, the Word of God, which brings the authors' revelation full circle. God did not want the black man to go into slavery but rather to prevent him from suffering by provoking him to repent. Idolatry is still the reason today for the oppression of any nation of people, not man. This is a spiritual principle! The author further explains that the white man's "irritation" with the black man was also prophesied as a result of our lack of repentance. But through Jesus Christ, every curse is broken and we are returned to God free from oppression in our hearts and minds and full of forgiveness toward all that have offended us!!!!!!! What a wonderful book!!!! I Challenge you to read and digest this book. I believe that it's content is a new standard for a new millenium for the believer. We should not hold the truth in unrighteousness. Neither can we continue say "we love God" and hated our brothers. This is a truth for all races and nations to read!!! The truth shall make us free!!!!!

I could hardly put this book down once I started to read it. The facts that Rev. Carter provides about Black history are substantiated through the Bible. I think that any person that reads this book will understand why Black people have gone through what they have. Black people can be proud of their heritage. This book is for people of all ages.

Rev. Carter's book left me in tears. It's that bold and that shocking. It challenged many of my assumptions about race and has forced me to reconsider many things that I previously took for granted. Warning: you will be upset and you won't be able to forget No Apology Necessary.

Great food for thought (I don't totally agree.),

This review is from: No Apology Necessary: How hidden prophecies in the Old Testament foretold the tragedy of slavery and give the answers to racial tension in America (Paperback)
Whether you agree or not, all African Americans should read this book! There's still enough good in this book to work with. It is still a dangerous book in the hands of Eurocentric "christians." I couldn't even imagine him SPEAKING this book on tv. Nevertheless, he has some VALID points about contemporary Blacks' weaknesses and faults (sins). Other great books are by Nana Banchie Darwah, Fred K. C. Price, Kingsley Fletcher and Albert Raboteau.

Rev. Carter did an amazing job clearing my mind on things I had not understood about blacks and whites... AND.... he backed it up with scripture ... how can you argue with that?!... He did this in fairness to both races.... if you believe the Bible you have to read this and you WILL understand whether you want to admit it or not...

Review on No apology Necessary,

This review is from: No Apology Necessary: How hidden prophecies in the Old Testament foretold the tragedy of slavery and give the answers to racial tension in America (Paperback)
This book is a must for all asundry to read and get an understanding on the reason for much of what is happening in the black community/country in general. I believe this book will open our eyes on the reason why the black race has gone through much of what they have gone through, and are still going through now.
In the book such issues as slavery and slave trade are delt with through Bible perspective. Which quite frankly, is the truth. The black race needs to seek Divine intervention inorder to be delivered from the effect of the prophesy's and judgement on the black race for being the first race to go into 'Idol worship'. The consiquence for this act is punishable through the same punishment that was meted out to the children of Isreal in the Bible. It is a very enlightning book to read.

The book, "No Apology Necessary" is extremely enlightening for every race in that you can't deny the past; what has already happened was foretold in the Scriptures (God's Word). The FOOL has said in his heart, "there is no God". Racism stems from fear and this fear is largely from ignorance. Please wake up and take heed before you drown in your ignorance!!!
