Understanding Who You Are
You Identity in God

Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr.
Part 3
PRAYER: -
My desire today is to try to bring this all together, I need to bring about 1960 years’ worth of history in about a 45 minute to an hour lesson. So, pray with me and for me as I bring this out in Jesus’ name.
The Hebrew word Amam = people. The Hebrew word Mishpacha = family. God has a people - The concept of being “God’s chosen people” points to a distinct relationship in which God selects and sets apart individuals or a nation for a special purpose. This calling carries a responsibility to honor Him, follow His commandments, and represent Him to the world.
God’s choosing of a specific people begins with Abraham. In Genesis 12:1-2 God says, “Go forth from your country... I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you.” This sets in motion the Abrahamic Covenant, which includes promises of land, descendants, and blessing. The call of Abraham positions him and his descendants as a unique covenant community, chosen to bring blessing to all the families of the earth Genesis 12:3 “And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed”.
Deuteronomy 7:6-8 says, “For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God: the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth. The Lord did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all people: But because the Lord loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath the Lord brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt”. The people of Israel, descended from Shem through Eber through Abraham through Isaac and Jacob, took on this chosen identity and became the Amam – People of God/Chosen.
Deuteronomy 28 explains the blessing the Amam will receive if they obey God, it also explains the curses they will receive if they disobey God. Well, we know what happened, but let’s see what history and people have changed and tried to keep from the Amam / people of God for so long.
Understand the Amam / the People of God are the Hebrew Israelites the descendants of Shem through Eber, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The Mishpacha or the family are those that accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior and are grafted in. This is how the Gentiles are grafted in the olive branch. The important thing I want you to understand is God has a people, an Amam and I will bring out the importance of His people and a promise to His people shortly.
Last week I ended part #2 with hopefully a tantalizing tidbit when I stated that the Zondervan Compact Bible Dictionary states under Exodus 11:7: “HAM – THE YOUNGEST SON OF NOAH, BORN PROBABLY ABOUT 96 YEARS BEFORE THE FLOOD; AND ONE OF EIGHT PERSONS TO LIVE THROUGH THE FLOOD. HE BECAME THE PROGENITOR OF THE DARK RACES; NOT THE NEGROES, BUT THE EGYPTIANS, ETHIOPIANS, LIBYANS AND CANAANITES”.
HOWEVER, IF HE IS NOT THE FATHER OF THE NEGROS (THAT MAKES NEGROES SOME OTHER KIND OF BLACK PEOPLE) that means that the descendants of one of the other brothers (Shem) must have also been a black or dark-skinned person with descendants that are black or dark skinned also. By deduction, since Japheth is known to have been the father of the light skinned, white race, or European people, that leaves us with Shem as the father of the negroes. Now remember I established the fact that people were identified by tribal names and not color Ethiopians, Egyptians, Greek and yes Negroes.
Surprise, surprise, the so-called Jews are Japhetite’s and misuse the term anti-Semitic, because they are not Semitic in the slightest. In fact, if a so-called Negro of Semitic origin was to be insulted by an Ashkenazi Jew. The real anti-Semites are the Japhetite’s whenever they insult a so-called negro.
Let’s give a little history. In 931 B.C. King Solomon died 1 Kings 11:43 says, “And Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David, his father; Rehoboam his son, reigned in his stead”. Rehoboam was young, vain, unaccomplished, overbearing and prone to follow bad advice he was determined to continue to exploit and tax the people heavily for his own grandiose pleasures. Rehoboam would not listen to the counsel of the old and wise leader and elders that served under his father Solomon but instead listen to the inexperienced people that all they wanted to do was please (Trump) Rehoboam and not concerned about the people.
There is a man named Jeroboam who was a servant of Solomon at one time. However, he tried to rise up against Solomon and Solomon was going to have him killed but he fled to Egypt and lived in Egypt until Solomon was dead. When Rehoboam became King he return and the people of Jerusalem wanted him to be their King so he led a rebellion against Rehoboam and the 10 tribes and the 12 tribes of Israel were split into the Northern and Southern Kingdoms Ten tribes became the Northern Kingdom under Jeroboam and 2 remained loyal to David under Rehoboam Judah and Benjamin.
Jeroboam did not obey the Lord. Instead, he had two golden calves made for the people to worship in the northern kingdom and made priests and celebrations for them. 1 Kings 12:26-27 says, “And Jeroboam said in his heart, ‘Now [with the pilgrimage festival approaching] the kingdom is [in danger of] returning to the house of David. If this people go up to bring sacrifices in the house of God at Jerusalem, then the heart of this people will turn back to their master, to Rehoboam king of Judah, and they shall kill me, and go back to Rehoboam king of Judah”. In 722 B.C. the Northern Kingdom fell to the Assyrians and the Ten tribes never returned. After several attacks and corrupt Kings the Southern Kingdom was attacked in 586 B.C. In 538 BC, Cyrus, the King of Persia, who had recently conquered the Babylonians, issues a decree allowing the Yahudim Ju – Dah = (Jews) in captivity to return to their homeland and rebuild. The return was done over decades and although they returned Judah and Benjamin were never as effective as they were before. There was a mixing and a corruption that had merged in with them. These people understood the rites and rituals but knew nothing about relationship, they were religious, converts that accepted Judaism but were not true Israelites. Jesus called them hypocrites for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in, ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer, ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves, ye blind guides, ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. Ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness, outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell. They are the scribes and the Pharisees, these people were NOT YAHUDIM (Jews) or Amam. They were Ismaelites that had converted and were in the land after the exile. John 8:31-33 says, “Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free”. This proves that they were not Yahudim but were, Abraham’s seed through Ismael.
In 70 A.D. the siege and destruction of Jerusalem was the decisive event of the, a major rebellion against Roman rule in the province of Judaea. Led by Titus, Roman forces besieged Jerusalem, which had become the main stronghold of the revolt since 66 A.D. After months of fighting, they breached its defenses, destroyed the Second Temple, razed most of the city, and killed, enslaved, or displaced a large portion of its population, the Yahudim (Jews) the tribes of Judah and Benjamin. The atrocities Titus did to the people of God range from Rape to setting Christian on poles burning to light the city at night. Many as a million Jews escaped Jerusalem being scattered to many different places a vast majority of these displaced Yahudim went to Africa. I m not going to deal here with the Yahudim that ended up in places like Portugal and became part of the Spanish Inquisition in 1492 but do your due diligence and study on them for yourself. I am going to deal with the Yahudim that went to Africa.
The Yahudim that left Jerusalem in 70 A.D. and went to Africa settled in West Africa, remember the Eastern, Southern, Northern parts of Africa belonged to the descendants of Ham Cush (Ethiopia) Put (Lybia) and Mizarim (Egypt) the Western part belonged to Canaan but he never settled there he decided to stay in what is today called Palestine or the Gaza Strip.
The Yahudim (Jews) Amam people of God settled in Western Africa in what became known as the Gao region, Ghana, Nigeria, Benin, and Guinea later named NEGROLAND. These Yahudim were very influential and held to the Laws of God strictly, through the years fought many battels with the different African Tribes because they carried their culture, history, laws, and written records which assured them a constant higher social organization and due to their culture they were not absorbed into the population.
The Yahudim made use of every opportunity; they were industrious and skillful people, judges, architects, engineers, doctors, historians, language interpreters, mathematicians, jewlers, sculptors, masons, carpenters, painters, goldsmiths, leather workers, armores, agriculturist and etc. The area became the Songai Empire replacing the Mali Empire and becoming the most important empire in West Africa during the 15th and 16th century. 44 Kings had reigned by 790 A.D.
The Kings of Ghana had 2 titles Kayamaga (master of gold) and Ghana (war chief). This is very significant in understanding what is about to take place. The Arabs began invading Africa and started spreading the Muslim religion they wanted the gold in West Africa, but the Ghana (War Chiefs) fought against them. As the Muslin religion began to spread through Africa especially Northern and Eastern Africa the Africans became more and more intrenched and indoctrinated as Mohameds, followers of Mohamed and the Muslim religion, but in West Africa, Nigeria, Ghana, Gao the area of the Mali and Songhay empire these were the Yahudim (Jews) that held to their religious culture. The Arabs called the area the Yahudim lived in Bilad es Sudan (the territory of the black) because the tribes were very black, unmixed tribes of Shemites. With the help of the Africans they captured from the 7th century until the 20th when slavery was finally abolished about 10 million people from the area. In 1009 Za Kasi accepted Islam up until this time all the Kings of Ghana professed the Hebrew religion.
When the Europeans came in the 15th century, they went to the Africans who sold the Hebrews into slavery saying their God has cursed them. They captured slaves from the area the Arabs called Bilad es Sudan which the Europeans called the area Nergoland. These were the descendants of Shem through Eber, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob that fled Jerusalem after the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. by Titus. They were captured and sent to the utter parts of the world fulfilling the curse of Deuteronomy 28 and Prophesy of Jeremiah in Lamentations 1:3 “Judah is gone into captivity because of affliction, and because of great servitude: she dwelleth among the heathen, she findeth no rest: all her persecutors overtook her between the straits”.
Let’s understand the route if you look at the map:-
Below Guinea you will see Grain Coast, Gold Coat, and Slave Coast that is what they exported from those areas. The Hebrew Israelites were taken from what they called Negroland brought down to the Slave Coast you will notice there is the Kingdom of Benin here is what is called the Door or Arch of NO RETURN, because once the Hebrews (slaves) went from here there was no returning. From here the Hebrew slaves, the descendants of Shem were scattered in the Caribbean, South America and North America.
Watch The Woman King it gives a great description of how the Africans sold the Hebrews into slavery. The truth had always been out there we just had to search it out.
Deuteronomy 28:15-68 says, “But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee: Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the field. Cursed shall be thy basket and thy store. Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep. Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt thou be when thou goest out. The Lord shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all that thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me. The Lord shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest to possess it. The Lord shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a fever, and with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, and with the sword, and with blasting, and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish. And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass, and the earth that is under thee shall be iron. The Lord shall make the rain of thy land powder and dust: from heaven shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed. The Lord shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies: thou shalt go out one way against them, and flee seven ways before them: and shalt be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth. And thy carcase shall be meat unto all fowls of the air, and unto the beasts of the earth, and no man shall fray them away. The Lord will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the emerods, and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed. The Lord shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart: And thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore, and no man shall save thee. Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her: thou shalt build an house, and thou shalt not dwell therein: thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not gather the grapes thereof. Thine ox shall be slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof: thine ass shall be violently taken away from before thy face, and shall not be restored to thee: thy sheep shall be given unto thine enemies, and thou shalt have none to rescue them. Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day long; and there shall be no might in thine hand. The fruit of thy land, and all thy labours, shall a nation which thou knowest not eat up; and thou shalt be only oppressed and crushed alway: So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see. The Lord shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore botch that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head. The Lord shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone. And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all nations whither the Lord shall lead thee. Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather but little in; for the locust shall consume it. Thou shalt plant vineyards, and dress them, but shalt neither drink of the wine, nor gather the grapes; for the worms shall eat them. Thou shalt have olive trees throughout all thy coasts, but thou shalt not anoint thyself with the oil; for thine olive shall cast his fruit. Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy them; for they shall go into captivity. All thy trees and fruit of thy land shall the locust consume. The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee very high; and thou shalt come down very low. He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail. Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee: And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever. Because thou servedst not the Lord thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things; Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the Lord shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee. The Lord shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand; A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young: And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy land, until thou be destroyed: which also shall not leave thee either corn, wine, or oil, or the increase of thy kine, or flocks of thy sheep, until he have destroyed thee. And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land: and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the Lord thy God hath given thee. And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, which the Lord thy God hath given thee, in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee: So that the man that is tender among you, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward the wife of his bosom, and toward the remnant of his children which he shall leave: So that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat: because he hath nothing left him in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee in all thy gates. The tender and delicate woman among you, which would not adventure to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom, and toward her son, and toward her daughter, And toward her young one that cometh out from between her feet, and toward her children which she shall bear: for she shall eat them for want of all things secretly in the siege and straitness, wherewith thine enemy shall distress thee in thy gates. If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, The Lord Thy God; Then the Lord will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance. Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee. Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, them will the Lord bring upon thee, until thou be destroyed. And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude; because thou wouldest not obey the voice of the Lord thy God. And it shall come to pass, that as the Lord rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you; so the Lord will rejoice over you to destroy you, and to bring you to nought; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest to possess it. And the Lord shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone. And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the Lord shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind: And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life: In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at even thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! for the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see. And the Lord shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you”. Listen NO OTHER GROUP OF PEOPLE ON THE PLANET HAS SUFFERED THIS CURSE BUT THE DESCENDANTS OF SHEM – THE HEBREW ISRAELITES, not the so-called Jews in the Holocaust, the Indians with the trail of tears, the Palestinians or any other group of people have suffered this curse but God’s people the Amam the Hebrews descendants of Shem. If you are what is called an African American you are a descendant of Shem a Hebrew, a Yahudim, not a African American, not a Nigger, not Black you are a Hebrew of the line of Shem.
Now if you do a DNA test, 23 and Me has now been bought out, that is not by coincidence either you need to understand, but by a meticulous design to keep us from understanding who we are and realizing that with over 2000 years of intermingling a direct line is hard to establish, but there are certain DNA markers that are found only in certain people from certain areas. It is how genetic profiling is done. WATCH THIS: - If you take a DNA test and you are the so-called African American it will show that you come from the area of Nigeria in Africa or in that region and you will have the DNA markers of E1b1a. The results will say something like you are 80% Nigerian, 10% European (due to mixing), and 10% other or something along those lines. 23 and me gave a map with the highlighted area which you were predominately from like this. Nigeria and your Haplogroup has the following DNA markers E1b1a. A haplogroup is a genetic population group of people who share a common ancestor on either their paternal or maternal line. Haplogroups follow male and female descendancy lines, with Y-DNA passing from father to son, and mtDNA passing from mothers to both daughters and sons.
Now what you need to understand is this region of Nigeria is what was called Negroland at one time; however, it is all called just Africa and the reason and purpose is to create confusion, create loss of hope, uncertainty, loss of culture, heritage, and identity because they know that if people ever realize who they are may actually start living in the promise God has for them.
In part 1 I stated how Muhamed Ali corrected a man that was interviewing him and said “How was it growing up a “Negro Boy” Muhamed Ali said he was not a Negro because there is no place called Negro. Japanese are called that because they come from Japan, Germans come from Germany, Koreans come from Korea, but there is no place called Negro. Well true to a point, but because it was a name given to be derogatory, yet it identified who we truly are the descendants of Shem
As I said earlier, I believe every story has some truth in it we must search to understand what is true or not. It is supposedly part of a conspiracy and there is no way of proving for sure if he said it, but the statement itself is true. Hitler was supposed to have said “Do you know who America has in its possession? No replied a soldier. The Americans has the jewels of God. The Americans have stolen God’s precious jewels. What do you mean asked the soldier? America has stolen the Jews. The Jews of God. His jewelry. The Negros. They are the true Hebrews.
As historical evidence shows, the Black Hebrews were taken from West Africa and sold into slavery, but there is a promise from God coming. Jeremiah 30:3 says, “For, lo, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the Lord: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it”.
Please join me next week as I go into this promise of what is to come breaking down Jeremiah 30, Joel 3, Ezekiel 37-38, Romans 11 and showing what is coming for the Amam (people of God) and what recompense for the Gentiles.
