The Choice In 20 12: Same ole career politicians making the same ole promises or GRCAM?
In my book “The Solution For Black America: Reclaiming, Rebuilding, And Restoring The Urban Ghettos In America” I provide a road map on how we can end gun violence, poverty, and structural inequality in Urban America and In America in general. I wrote my story because I lack support from established black organizations in Chicago and from the black church. I also wrote this book to promote my future organization the Grass Roots Community Activist Movement. It will have three main components: a social service component, a spiritual component, and a political component. Right now it’s only online as a virtual community. This organization will work directly with single black mothers, single black fathers, and two parent low income families by providing them with the resources such as job training, child daycare and if we have any job openings we would hire them. We will also teach our future clients and members how to start their own businesses within the community.
Our first goal is to stabilize the community through our political component (the democratic socialist party) which will change the current gun laws one city one state at a time. Our community outreach programs will create legitimate jobs in the hood so that our clients can raise their family in peace and in a safe environment. We will provide employment to our young people so that they won’t become career criminals. We will offer a second chance program for ex offenders to give them a another chance in life and help them become productive citizens. We will educate our clients and members about capitalism, democratic socialism, and financial intelligence. We will fulfill Dr. King’s dream of ending poverty and structural inequality in America after we end gun violence in Urban America and America in general. I provide a road map on how we can end gun violence, poverty, and structural inequality in America which my creator has given me. I also encourage my supporters to interact with me in my free online groups and my virtual communities.
As soon as my revised book is republished the sooner I can begin doing my book tour in 25 states God willing in order to promote my book as well as encourage 30 people in the United States to join my management team (board of directors/advisory board) and come to Chicago and work with me directly in turning my vision into reality. This organization is open to all racial groups and all law abiding citizens. Everyone must accept the principles behind this organization and sign a consent form and be placed in our data base. I will keep taps on all my future clients, members, and staff. Anyone that is found guilty of deliberately trying to sabotage this organization through false allegation or through defrauding our clients or members will have their name and photo ID placed on our Judas list and that person will be barred for life. We may also take legal action against such person.
I want to recruit the best and brightest people in America that have or will read my book and agree with my vision and all of the principles in my book to come to Chicago and work with me directly in getting my organization up and running for the sake of our children and our people that are trapped in the ghettos of Chicago. Once my organization is established we will expand to 25 other states and set up chapters nationwide. I also plan on turning my story into a documentary and a movie. In addition, I also plan on expanding GRCAM aboard to Africa, Brazil, and the Caribbean Islands. I am seeking only 30 brave people in the United States to join my board of directors/advisory board. Those who will assist me in this manner I will share the spot light and you will go down in history for helping me with my cause which is “Help Stop The Genocide In American Ghettos.” Question how many more women and children have to die in America before I can get some help to start this movement? I am not asking for donations all I ask is that you purchase my book and read the entire book. If you agree with my vision then send me your name and number to my facebook inbox. If you are not comfortable with exchanging numbers then send me your Yahoo email so that we can chat live on Yahoo Messenger or on Skype. My Skype screen name is manwell4mankind. This is my contribution back to my community and to my people worldwide.
The purpose of this message is to present the case for a new system “the Grass Roots Community Activist Movement” as an alternative to the fallen capitalist worldly system as defined in the Bible and show its direct opposition to the holiness and purity that God requires of his followers. Since the Bible is the complete revelation of God to man, the vast quantity of scripture dealing with the world and worldly behavior should reveal the relevance of this topic to real Christians. I am a Christian socialist which means I believe in democraticsocialism based on Christian values. A Christian socialist believes that democratic socialism is the logical political choice for a Christian. Christianity is a religion not a political ideology; it is concerned with the human soul, and one could be a very good Christian without holding any political views at all. However, Christian socialists believe that some of the core values of Christianity are to help each other when in need, preserve the sanctity of life, and a rejection of excessive individualism promoted under capitalism.
Democratic socialism ultimate goal is to create a utopian society where we can all live in a crime free world, since everyone will have equal access to resources and there is no longer a class distinction. The financial elites has imposed capitalism on the world through taxes, bias in the laws which only benefit the rich and powerful since it’s there system in the first place. The Grass Roots Community Activist Movement will focus on dealing with such issues head on as unemployment, poverty, mass incarceration, police brutality, racial profiling, gun violence, youth violence, drugs, housing, homelessness, health care disparities, educational disparities, food deserts, economic development, and entrepreneurship. GRCAM will replicate the Garden of Eden as much as possible.
First of all, let’s establish the general idea that the world is directly opposed to God and vice versa with a few verses: James 4:4 You adulterous people, don't you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. 1 John 2:15-17 Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever. Titus 2:11-12 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age.
What is meant by the world in Biblical terms.
1. The world is not the same as the earth Genesis 1:1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:28-31 God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground." Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-everything that has the breath of life in it-I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning-the sixth day. The earth includes all of God’s creation, which he was perfectly pleased with (Genesis 1:31). When I speak of the world in this document, do not be confused with the earth.
1 John 5:19 We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one. Matthew 4:8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. "All this I will give you," he said, "if you will bow down and worship me." Jesus said to him, "Away from me, Satan! For it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.
The world system is not eternal:
1 John 2:17 The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever. Revelation 11:15 The seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said: "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will reign forever and ever." The New Testament makes a clear distinction between Christians and the world. John 1:10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him.
John 8:23 But he continued, "You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am the one I claim to be, you will indeed die in your sins." John 14:16-17 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you. John 15:19 If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. John 17:9 I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours. John 17:14 I have given them your word and the world has hated them, forthey are not of the world any more than I am of the world. John 17:25 Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. 1 John 3:1 How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.
Capitalism/ The worldly system is corrupt:
2 Peter 2:20 Makes it clear that knowing Jesus Christ as Lord AND Savior is THE way to escape the world’s corruption. The option is not given to have a saving relationship with Jesus and remain in the world’s control! 2 Peter 1:3-4 His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. Christian must not conform to the world’s pattern, principles, viewpoint, standards, lusts, cravings, desires, boastings, passions, etc. Romans 12:2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is his good, pleasing and perfect will. Colossians 2:20 Since you died with Christ to the basic principles of this world, why, as though you still belonged to it, do you submit to its rules. They are from the world and therefore speak from the viewpoint of the world, and the world listens to them. We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognize the Spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood. 1 Corinthians 10:2-5 I beg you that when I come I may not have to be as bold as I expect to be toward some people who think that we live by the standards of this world. For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. 1 John 2:15-17 Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world the cravingsof sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.
1 Timothy 6:7-9 For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. These verses make it clear that Christians are called to separate themselves from the world.
The Bible calls Christians to purity and holiness. This means to be free from any worldly defilement and set apart for God. 2 Corinthians 6:14-7:1 Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? What does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people." "Therefore come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you." "I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty." Be very careful, then, how you live not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is. 1 Corinthians 15:33 Do not be misled: "Bad company corrupts good character." Philippians 4:8-9 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
1 John 3:1-3 How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. The gospel of Jesus Christ is foolishness to the world. The Holy Spirit must operate in man to bring a conviction of sin and understand the need to receive God’s mercy through Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 1:18-21 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate." Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. 1 Corinthians 2:12-14 We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us. This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words. The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. Love the sinner, not the sin. Even though Christians should not love the world system and the world does not understand Christians, we still have an important job to do here. Even God himself loves the world John 3:16-17 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
What exactly is our purpose in the world as Christians? Matthew 5:13-16 "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men. "You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. We need to stand out and have a positive effect on others, just as salt brings out the best flavor in food. And we can become light to others by speaking up when we should, standing up to the crowd when necessary, setting a model for others by our Christ like behavior, helping those in need, etc.
