Was Jesus Christ an African man?
Reverend Dr Horace Wright on whether there is enough evidence to suggest Jesus was, in fact, black
EASTER IS one of the most important Christian festivals celebrated around the world in honour of Jesus Christ's resurrection three days after his crucifixion.

At a time when many will be reflecting on the son of God, questions will arise over whether the images we see of Jesus paint a true picture of who he really was. Helping to demystify this well-documented debate, Reverend Dr Horace Wright, pastor of The Holy Qubtic Church in east London, speaks exclusively to The Voice about whether there is enough evidence to suggest Jesus was, in fact, an African.

Why do you believe Jesus was black?
If you were to research the region where they say Ya-Shu-a (Jesus) was born, grew and lived, you will find the indigenous people were of Nubian stock. I have always known this. As a child, I often questioned the pastor of my church. However, he always failed to make this connection, just like countless other so-called religious scholars.

Where in the bible can people find references to Christ’s ethnicity?
There are many accounts. The main three are as follows. In Revelations 1:13-15 there’s a description of “one like the son of man”, referring to Ya-Shu-A, having hair like lamb’s wool and feet like burnt brass. These two points alone give the descrip- tion of a Nubian man. In Acts 13:1 - Ya-Shu-a’s brother
Barnabas and Simeon (Simon) were called Niger. The word translates to mean ‘black’. And, in Matthew 13:55, they speak of Ya-Shu-A’s mother and his brothers of which Simeon is mentioned again. All of the above references prove to me that Ya-Shu-A was a black man.

Why does the concept of a black Christ cause such con- troversy especially within the black community?
Over the years, we – the black race – have been taught to hate ourselves through slavery, colonisation and latter day non-African religious ideologies. Ironically, however, scientists have proven that the origin of man came from Africa, which ties in with the concept that God made man in His own image and likeness. Nevertheless, we Nubians cannot accept this fact because this would mean that we were on earth first and are the chosen people of God.

Why has the truth been hidden?
The truth is hidden so those in power can control the world’s resources, economy and reli- gion thus humanity as a whole (Ephesians 6:12). Those in power cannot allow the true chosen seed and inheritors to regain their true religious iden- tity because this would mean bringing to an end their rule and recreating a balance for human- ity by way of truth, justice, peace, freedom, love, joy, unity and success.
