White Supremacy, a Biblical 4th Generation Curse

---

The Bozell’s, and yes, the Trumps is ultimate Symbols of White Supremacy and the Biblical 4th Generation Curse.

The following is a biblical explanation for 3rd and 4th generational sins and how they self-propagate, followed by a frank discussion of Donald Trump and how hit fits this paradigm:
 

How the sins of the Civil War, Racism and Slavery hamstrung this country for four generations. The perpetuation of racism and atrocities such as lynching and forced rapes produced more fourth generational vicious cycles so the US is still plagued by racism and brutality against minorities.

The following is a biblical explanation for 3rd and 4th generational sins and how they self-propagate.

The Lord...visits the iniquity of the fathers on the children and the children’s children, to the third and the fourth generation. (Exodus 34:6-7 = Deuteronomy 5:8-10)

“Because of their iniquity, and also because of the iniquities of their fathers they shall rot away like them.” (Leviticus 26:39)

Here are two conclusions from these verses 

1. The sins of the fathers are punished in the children through becoming the sins of the children.

I the Lord...visit the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.” (Exodus 20:5; cf. Numbers 14:18)

The generations to come who experience the penalty of the fathers’ sins are those who hate God. We are not told how the fathers’ sins become the children’s sins. But what we are told is that when the father’s sins are visited on the children it is because the children are really sinful. That is the form in which the fathers’ sins are visited. Therefore, all judgment is really deserved by the person who is punished.

2. Because of God’s grace, which is finally secured by Christ, the children can confess their own sins and the sins of their fathers and be forgiven and accepted by God.

But if they confess their iniquity and the iniquity of their fathers...if then their uncircumcised heart is humbled and they make amends for their iniquity, then I will remember my covenant with Jacob” (Leviticus 26:40-42).

These sins perpetuate because of the hardness of man’s heart.

The bible says:

Ephesians 4:18 ESV

They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to their hardness of heart.

Jeremiah 17:9 ESV / 13 helpful votes Helpful Not Helpful

The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?

The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure produces evil, for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.

“He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, lest they see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and turn, and I would heal them.”

And he said to them, “You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is exalted among men is an abomination in the sight of God.

You brood of vipers! How can you speak good when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.

But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts?

The Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

There is one overall conclusion from these verses 

The bible paints such a bleak picture of the hardness of men’s hearts, it is a wonder there is any good in the world at all. Men are so stubborn, intractable, and obstinate, and they will do whatever come to mind whenever they chose and believe whatever they want to believe. It is as if even if God were to appear in person to admonish them, they would not only refuse to listen or take heed. They would mock Him to His Face.

The Trump Legacy

The First Great Awakening (sometimes Great Awakening) or the Evangelical Revival was a series of Christian revivals that swept Britain and its thirteen North American colonies in the 1730s and 1740s But it took fo  

Saying the Quiet Part Out Loud [Full Article]

A new national poll has found that Donald Trump’s supporters see him as a more reliable source for the truth than their friends, relatives, and faith leaders. It also revealed they are most interested in how close GOP candidates hew to their personal views, than a political economic and military agenda or otherwise.

A sizable portion of them claim to be Evangelicals but admit never or rarely attending a church. Truth be told, what the GOP and the news media are loathe to admit is that Trump’s supporters seek racial purity, which Trump far more than his political rivals represents. The kind that existed by law or by force or fiat before the civil war and for decades afterwards. Thus, any criticisms of Trump, by staunch 

Republicans like Trump’s former Vice President Mike Pence, and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, are regardless taken as a repudiation of racial purity, and a personal affront on their deeply held moral beliefs. It is no wonder that Trump’s failed coup to overturn the 2020 elections is seen as their own legitimate mission to assert white dominion,  supremacy, nationalism or MAGA by any other name. Hence, Trump can do no wrong! And they now expect their support to carry him through the primaries to the general elections, come hell or high-water.

Trump has emboldened his GOP base to the point that even hid most mild-mannered supporters no longer feel reticent about venting bigotry. Whereas before they might have used coded language, or spoke in hushed tones behind closed doors, they now shout the quiet part loudly from their rooftops.

Troubling statistics show the post-election rancor that led to the US Capitol attack on 6 January is still very much in place

A Pew poll revealed that almost one in three Republicans say violence may be necessary to ‘save’ the US “Because things have gotten so far off track,.”

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis released the racketeering indictment charging Trump and 18 co-conspirators, along with 30 unindicted co-conspirators, in a broad scheme to  overturn Georgia’s 2020 election results, Hours later, Trump railed against the DA saying, “They never went after those that Rigged the Election. They only went after those that fought to find the riggers!”

Throngs of his supporters quickly jumped on that bandwagon spreading the term ”riggers,” like wildfire on far-right social media sites, as thinly veiled allusion to the N word—a bullhorn to his supporters and a battle cry to his militant factions.

But Trump’s well-established history of racist behavior stretches back decades. And none of the 2024 GOP candidates comes close to outdoing his xenophobic bona fides. Which of his other GOP opponents had a father like  Fred Trump, arrested with 6 other men wearing Ku Klux Klan gowns and hoods in a 1927 brawl in New York, or had to be forced by consent decree to rent housing without regard to race, color, religion, sex, or national origin after years turning away Black applicants. Which of his rivals took out an ad calling for the death penalty for five innocent Black men before they were even tried and wrongly convicted for raping and beating a woman in Central Park. Or accused Mexico of sending their rapists and drug dealers across the border. Or openly supported banning nationals from Muslim countries from visiting. Or caged the children of South American migrants in concentration camp-like conditions. None. But each of these GOP presidential hopefuls. save for Governors Chris Christie, Asa Hutchinson, and Vice President Mike Pence, baulked at holding Trump responsible for the Jan 6 insurrection, as they pandered to Trump’s base of supporters who judge them by the degree of capitulation to most to their long held ideals of white nationalism, xenophobia, and various forms of bigotry. And by the most willing to deny American citizens their basic rights, as well as the most willing to resort to any means necessary to marginalize minorities.

But even with his draconian book bans, censorship of free speech, ban on African American studies, his peeling away at women’s rights, ill-treatment of migrants, and his incomprehensible war on woke, Ron DeSantis’s polling still shows him running a distant second to Donald Trump.

.The First Great Awakening, or sometimes the Great Awakening and Evangelical Revival was a series of Christian revivals that swept Britain and its thirteen North American colonies in the 1730s and 1740s Yet many of them were segregationists, using biblical theologyto justify slavery, often definingthemselves as Evangelicals. And it took four generations till 1865 to end slavery in America. It Is no surprise it took another four generations and counting, to elect the first Black president. And because of this vicious cycle of generational intolerance, it is no wonder this country is still struggling with, racism , race-based brutality, xenophobia, sexual and gender-based discrimination, and atrocities such as the Trump administration's policy of intentionally separating thousands of children from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border and then caging them in nazi-style concentration camps. 

To his base, Trump is the ultimate Symbol of that irrepressible generational quest for the white dominance that the recalcitrant racists of the civil war took for granted. For whom a good black was one who was subservient to whites, who remained in his place, who shined their shoes, prepared their dinners, tilled the soil, picked their cotton, and even nurtured their infant children. 

Only time will tell whether Donald Trump’s cult of personality will spur four more generations of unabashed militant racists like the Proud Boys, and his father’s clandestine involvement with the Ku Klux Klan. In time, if his personality cult persists. he may eventually be seen as a cultural icon, much like Robert E Leen, who opposed racial equality for African Americans. and became hailed as one of the Civil War's greatest generals, revered to this day by many millions of Americans.ur generations till 1865 to end slavery.  It Is no surprise it took four generations after the end of the civil war and the abolition of slavery in 1865 to elect a Black man as president. And because of the vicious cycle of generational sin, It is no wonder this country is still struggling with, racism, xenophobia, sexism, and race-based brutality against minorities including crimes against humanity, such as the caging of south American children like monkeys. Donald Trump is the ultimate Symbol of that generational curse, perpetuating the sins of his forefathers, the recalcitrant racists of the civil war, for whom a good black was one who subservient to whites, who remained in his place, who shined their shoes, prepared their dinners, tilled the soil, picked cotton and even suckled their children. Only time will tell whether Donald Trump will create another 4thgenerational vicious cycle of unabashed racists (like the Proud Boys), for whom he will be their hero.
