I know you said comment if we want to Mason and I have to comment on this article. I agree with you being a natural teacher and I’m not willing to say you aren’t hanging around a little longer. I’m praying the right way and I want you to hang around. We all do. I love how you right. I’m enjoying UE and agree with Mark. It’s ahead of its time.

Well sis, you are the writer and you prove why time and time again. UE is just ahead of its time. One day it will be literature we all cherish and want to have in our libraries, personal and public. Love the way you made the conversation so clear comparing it to how we have conversations with anyone of authority. I just love the breakdown of human prosperity verses Godly prosperity. It really makes so much sense. Would that all humans demanded their knowledge be fact based and made sense. The world we live on would finally make since and really be civilized.

I also had to think about the monitory part of the article, At first I didn't agree because I've never done anything horrible to obtain my financial stability. But...like our father most of our family wealth has been inherited and it hasn't been difficult to maintain and even grow it over time. However, initially it was obtained via great sacrifice. My ancestors were slave owners and made the family fortune partially due to this practice. They also invested in other activities that required human sacrifice. So, Sis you are right about this as well and that was a sobering revalation for me.

Mason this is what I expect from you. You never let me down. I needed this and I thank you for making it all so very clear. I also love how you naturally tie things together and show their relevance. I love this article. I like how you explained that when we pray of the prosperity of this world it falls on death ears. We need to lean to those who created this value system to grant these type request not True God who is Adonai. I needed to hear and understand why Mason and I thank you for making that clear and completely understandable.

Beautifully done Mason. I like how you reminded us how we speak to all people that are in authority and God is the highest authority of all. So we have a manner in which we should follow when having a conversation with him. I can’t tell you how much this article moved me and it brought me to tears as well. Mason you really reminded us of the high regard in which we should always place Adonai.

Seven, its significant has never been made more clear. Like Mark I was a bit put off about the money portion of this article but I sat down with my parents who were not upset but agreed with what Mason said. My father asked me have I ever fired or failed to hire someone because of a bias I had or the feeling of power it gave me and I had to take a deep breath and nod. Human’s monitory value system makes those of us who have it naturally arrogant and without compassion for those who aren’t as fortunate.

My wife watched the BET Award show and there was a entertainer, Jessy Williams, when he spoke it made her cry. I thought he was instigating a race war, I went back and watched it again and really heard what the man was saying, I have been a part of conditional freedom for African Americans and it has and is a part of this human sacrifice Mason highlighted in this article. If you didn’t see this please take a moment to listen to what this gentleman had to say.

Watch it now because White people with money and power are taking it down because it makes them uncomfortable. I have a hell of a time finding it. YouTube doesn’t have it so that speaks to white fear of black people doing exactly what Jesse is saying they need to do. Scroll down to the video of him accepting the humanitarian award and listen. I have it on tape and I'll share it at our next meeting.
