African roots in the bible

        For most of my life I listened to many sermons where the minister proclaimed Jesus was in the beginning but I found that theory to be confusing and when asking questions about the origins of Jesus I was told to have faith. This was a common answer among many teachers, preachers, and in the messages of old. Another common quote was "there are some things God does not want us to know," another is  "there are some things that are a mystery." I was disappointed with those answers because one of the passages in the old testament says the exact opposite "My people perish for lack of knowledge" and therefore I believed if I look for answers and found evidence to support my answers I would gain the knowledge that the sages of old said I needed in order to be whole. 

    I grew up in a country among people of European descent with roots in the traditions of Christianity of which I felt comfortable with but as a descendant of the African diaspora, I had no ancestral connection and I began to feel disconnected from the church, that is until I read some books about the ancestral land of Africa, Masa-raim, called Egypt by the historians. The traditions of these African tribes reminded me of some of churches I have attended through out my life but I had no biblical evidence until I read a certain passage in the book of Exodus. Could the study of the scriptures and Judaism provide evidence of African roots in Christianity? This video will provide a text that I believe is a good place to start or you can get any book about Egypt, from a library or book store and start your own research.
