POSE FOR THOUGHT, DID YOU KNOW? Jesus Was The Slaveship John Hawkins Jesus of Lubeck John Hawkins of Plymouth is widely acknowledged to be the pioneer of the English slave trade, because he was the first to run the Triangular trade, making a profit at every stop. In 1564, Queen Elizabeth I partnered with him by renting him the huge old 700-tonne ship Jesus of Lubeck, and he set forth on his second longer and more extensive voyage along with three small ships. Hawkins sailed to Borburata, privateering along the way. By the time he reached Borburata, he had captured around 400 Africans. After Borburata, Hawkins sailed to Rio de la Hacha. The Spanish officials tried to prevent Hawkins from selling the slaves by imposing taxes. Captain Hawkins refused the taxes and threatened to burn the towns. After selling his slaves, Captain Hawkins sailed to a French colony in Florida for a respite. Captain Hawkins returned to England in September 1566, his expedition a total success as his financiers made a 60% profit. Off the coast of Africa, near Sierra Leone, Hawkins captured 300-500 slaves, mostly by plundering Portugese ships, but also through violence and subterfuge promising Africans free land and riches in the new world. He sold most of the slaves in what is now known as the Dominican Republic. He returned home with a profit and ships laden with ivory, hides, and sugar. Thus began the British slave trade. On his return to England Queen Elizabeth, livid, assailed Hawkins charging that his endeavor, ...was detestable and would call down vengeance from heaven upon the undertakers. When Elizabeth became fully aware, however, of the profits to be made she joined in partnership with Hawkins and provided him with the Jesus of Lubeck, a.k.a., The Good Ship Jesus. Question: What was our people downfall? Deuteronomy 29:26 - For they went and served other gods, and worshipped them, gods whom they knew not, and whom he had not given unto them: FYI: We never knew the English prior to being taken captive, the slave masters murdered our men in front of our women, then told them they loved them and that if they didnt want to see the same thing happen to their children that happened to the men, pray to Jesus. Deuteronomy 32:17 - They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not. FYI: We were a Hebrew tongue speaking people, before we fled out of Jerusalem in 70AD running from Roman Persecution. We ran into Africa we arrived on the Ivory Coast of West Africa, such as Sierra Leone and Nigeria and Ghana, we didnt go into the African parts such as Egypt, Libya, Ethopia. Israelites had a culture not to mix and mingle with other nations, so the Hamethic people we didnt fool with. We stayed in Africa for 1300 years until the Africans got mad and conspires with the Arabs to sell us to the Europeans like John Hawkins who took us captive on cargo slave ships. There was no J or U or us sound in our hebrew language, so our people didnt know this new God named Jesus until they forced our women to learn about him and pray to him and teach their children of him. Wakeup, one of the ships that brought us here was names Jesus gosh! Question: How did we get to America? Deuteronomy 28:68 - And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you. FYI: The Most High said we would come into Egypt again by way of ships, not literal Egypt but spiritual egypt. Egypt was used as reference to bondage and slavery, because in Egypt we were enslaved 430 years. The Most High is letting us know that we would go into slavery again and would be taken into slavery by ships and we would be sold as slave men and slave women, and no man should buy us. No man should buy us meant no man should deliever us out of this bondage as Moses did before in Egypt. Wakeup folks Gosh! Question: When we were to be brought into bondage again by way of ships, (North America), would we know their English language? Deuteronomy 28:49 - The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand; FYI: We were brought off the Ivory Coast of West Africa on slaveships to North America. One of the ships was called Jesus of Lubeck, so if according to prophecy this nation tongue we wouldnt understand, then how is Jesus our Hebrew God if being Hebrew we didnt understand the English tongue? Wakeup, prophecy said this nation shall come from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth. Now ask yourself, is it a coincidence that Americas symbol is the Eagle? Now look at the map below and see that North America is far, and from the end of the earth.
