    based off what the bible tells us / says ( Revelation -1: 14-15 ) What colour do you think The most high is ?

    Alyssa.

    This description we have of the Lord in Revelation 1:14-16 is a picture of him in his Glory. Not the way he walked down hear on earth!!

    Let's visit the text.

    Revelation 1:14-16. His head and his hairs were "WHITE" like wool, as "WHITE" as "SNOW";

    ( the emphasis here is the color of his hair not texture! It speaks of ETERNITY, ANCIENT OF DAYS. )

    as you see here in

    Daniel 7:9. I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the ANCIENT OF DAYS did sit, WHOSE GARMENT WAS WHITE AS SNOW, and the hair of His Head like the pure wool:

    and his eyes were as a flame of fire;

    ( His judgment is righteous, nothing hidden. )

    as you see here in

    Hebrews 4:13. Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

    And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace;

    ( Brass is a material that could withstand heat, fire speaks of judgment )

    ( HE'S PURE ) " NO INIQUITY FOUND IN HIM "

    and his voice as the sound of many waters.

    And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.

    and the two edged sword.

    Hebrews 4:12. For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

    THIS IS GOD! not a black man or a white man, or any other. HE'S THE GLORIFIED CHRIST JUDGING HIS CHURCH!!

    I'm sure others can add more revelation to this.

    God bless.

    Revelation 1 - 14 - 15

    '' his head and hair as white like wool , as white as snow '' .

    don't look at the colour , look at the texture . WOOL ! , wooly hair , curly hair , nappy hair , Afro hair .

    if you look today , most people with that hair are ? , so called black people & islanders right ?

    '' And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace '' .

    Brass is the colour of a gold coin & the furnace is like a chimney .

    if you put a pizza in the furnace and bring it out half time what colour is it ? golden-ish Brown-ish right & if you leave the pizza in the furnace overtime and bring it out afterwards , what colour is it then ? Black !

    So what does this tell you ? because from reading , researching and connecting the dots it told me he is a dark skin man with very wooly hair & not a white man with straight hair and brown eyes , like they say today .

    something else. Wool is not wool till it is spun.....your interpretation of this verse is way of the mark.
  • Josh - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 3 years ago
    If you already formed your opinion then why did you post your question pretending to be a real question? If this is about making some kind of public statement this is the wrong place for that. Jesus was a middle eastern Jew who walked a lot in the sun, so He was the same skin color as middle eastern Jews are today. If someone is trying to make Jesus into a certain skin color to earn fictional points for their own 'team' that is racism and that is wrong.

    In this verse John describes Jesus as having hair like white wool and snow. The prophet Daniel wrote that he saw the Ancient of Days, describing Him as having hair that resembled wool ( Daniel 7:9). Seen as having such a resemblance to God the Father, Jesus is eternal. His white hair suggests He is wise, experienced, dignified, authoritative, pure, and glorious.

    Alysha,

    You have been given some very good comments on this. I pray you look past what "skin color" Jesus Christ was and just focus on His Word. The Lord searches hearts.

    Just to be clear also you state "the furnace is like a chimney" and liken it to a charred pizza. The Greek word used for burned is "pepyrmens". Basically meaning "fiery or to glow". Not charred. Glowing with Glory.

    You can believe what you want but I pray you keep your focus on things above. Not of this world.

    God Bless.
  • The CURSE OF WRECKED DOMINION - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 3 years ago
    Romans 1 shows us that just by creation, the world, and what is in it: God has clearly shown us that He made it, and us

    He used DUST to make man. Dust under a microscope has ALL colors. God likes colors. Every color of the spectrum (colors plus black and white). God Himself is Spirit. The Holy Spirit is Spirit. Jesus's mother was a resident of The mid-east. Jesus's skin color was from his mom. He was not born with white hair.

    The Revelation scripture is the Glorious, Resurrected, Triumphant, ready for Battle, Jesus The son of God.

    Even Solomon had 700 wives, 300 concubines; different cultures, religions, colors, hair types.

    Our only prohibitions from Heaven are: Do Not inter-marry with Unbelievers! To do so, brings much grief and idolatry into our relationship and offspring.

    Clearly in Genesis where God was giving Adam his orders: Mankind had Dominion over everything EXCEPT Other Mankind.

    It was MAN that took dominion over what they deemed, lesser mankind. God DID NOT authorize that. The story of Nimrod and the Tower of Babel clearly demonstrates the human perversion of what God said concerning dominion.

    God introduced different languages, and people dispersed to their own cultures where they could speak their own language. The rich and powerful still took dominion over the working class people. It continues to this day.

    There will be no justice until this earth passes away as prophesied; and the New Heaven and New Earth is established by God. Without satans presence, we will all see what God intended for us: IN THE BEGINNING.

    I think God still prefers different colors in creation and mankind. Don't you? I know I do. I like variety!! I think nutty buddy ice cream is the Tops, but other people like popsicles and frozen yogurt. Gee whiz...can't we just be happy with what we got? WE KNOW that GOD is going to make ALL THINGS NEW. Everybody's Life Matters to God. Choose Jesus now. Rest in GOD and TRUST HIM.

    ALYSHA.

    His hair, AND HIS HEAD" was white.

    AND HE HAD A TONGUE FOR A TWO EDGE SWORD!!!!

    THIS IS """THE REVELATION""" OF JESUS CHRIST AFTER READING ALL THE OTHER 65 BOOKS. ITS THE CONCLUSION.

    I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, THE ALMIGHTY.

    It's a shame you reduce him to a man.

    with a fork tongue. After reading these 66 books that tells you what these symbols mean.

    Revelation 1:14, 16. His ""HEAD" and his hairs were

    "WHITE like wool, as"""""" WHITE AS SNOW; """"""""

    and his eyes were as a flame of fire;

    And he had in his right hand seven stars:

    ( AND OUT OF HIS MOUTH WENT A SHARP TWOEDGED SWORD""""""""": )

    and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
