@Patriot3pcter thats wrong whoever told you that is wrong.

[rossymaddy]

io amo il mio prossimo come me stesso e non vado in chiesa!!!!love!

[greigmonkpics]

@rossymaddy E 'bello andare in chiesa come la Chiesa è il Corpo. E 'bene amare il prossimo come te stesso come il tuo fratello. saremo famiglia. Ci sarà il corpo. Andare in chiesa e amare il prossimo sono entrambi buoni.

[apacciatetaianu]

@greigmonkpics il prossimo si puo amare anke senza andare in kiesa...senza essere ipocriti e fare la faccia d'angelo x sembrare belli agli okki della gente...io amo il prossimo piu di me stessa senza ipocrisie e falsita...

[apacciatetaianu]

@rossymaddy io ringrazio dio di esistere ogni giorno...ma questo non vuol dire ke vado in kiesa...se mi ritiene degna di perdono io sono cosi'...altrimenti l'inferno non puo essere piu brutto di questa vita..

[greigmonkpics]

@rossymaddy Amen Rossymaddy. Love you!!!

[batslinus]

Bellissima!

[greigmonkpics]

@batslinus Dio vi benedica! La gente in ogni lingua dichiarano la gloria di Dio è così meraviglioso! Ti amo!

[crassazell]

What tripe Christ was brown. look at the fact that man evolved in Africa. He then transmigrated and dependant on climate his tone changed that would surely make the whole of the Judean area brown fact not fiction. Christ is real but the good book is but that, a catholic/Jewish book to herd the masses. That said it still gets me going back to read time and again.

[greigmonkpics]

@crassazell I am glad you read the Bible. At this point in time what matters to me in this song is that you know who Christ is now. He washes your sins away if you Harken to him today!!! I really do not care what color he was to be honest. I care for what he does in me and through me now!!! God is the Father of Lights!!! I think of my Lord on the mount when He was transfigured!!! Ah yes!!! You seem the glory!!! Men could not stand before that!!!!

[greigmonkpics]

@crassazell Shalom to you. He will return and every eye shall see Him even those who pierced Him!!!!

[nodlon20]

OH HAPPY DAY!! AMEN!

[greigmonkpics]

@nodlon20 Praise God!!! Indeed!!!

[dreyk07]

Now to comment on the video, since I ran out of characters to clear up any confusions some people are having, and I don't know why... I assume we're all Christians, since we are watching this. Racism and Christianity do not mix.

As a matter of fact, I liked the image of Jesus here. Very beautiful artwork. I like the song, too, of course. Great work!

[greigmonkpics]

@dreyk07 Glory be to God! I am glad. He is our salvation! The Lord God saves through His Holy (Annointed) One! Glory be to God!

[dreyk07]

Well, we know from the Bible and from History that Jesus Christ was brought up amongst the Jews. The Jews were the chosen race because they were the most faithful at the time. Thus, it is logical to conclude that He was white. However, throughout history, different cultures have depicted Jesus Christ differently; that is, to fit their culture, of course. There is nothing wrong with people picturing Him slightly different according to their culture, for He is God and has many forms.

[crassazell]

@dreyk07 Self annointed tripe no single (race) is the chosen we are but one and we all have the ability within us to be chosen if we so desire. I agree wholeheartedly with what you have said bar the jaded fact that Christ was white. Man evolved in Africa. Via transmigration his colour has changed depending on climate hence that would make the whole of Judea brown skinned people. If this is not quite in with the anglo american way of thinking then its time to look at the facts again.

[dreyk07]

@crassazell Agreed. To clarify: "the chosen race" refers to the people that were most faithful to the true God, as many worshiped pagan gods at the time... emphasis on "at the time."

Whether He was Caucasian white or brown-skinned, does not matter; He walked with the Jews, so actually, you are right: He was neither White or Black. My point, though, is that His race and how we view His race does not matter.

However, your first and last points are important, as many are ignorant of these.

@giuseppe13378 You happy! Me too!! I know you meant happy. Translator say hammer. No worries.

[tedraroseLoves]

Thank you! Very good:)

[greigmonkpics]

@tedraroseLoves Blessings to you!!!

[clevelandman2010]

since when it the lord black just saying.

[greigmonkpics]

@clevelandman2010 Why is that an issue for you? Which is more important what race he was or who he is? just asking.

[greigmonkpics]

@clevelandman2010 Further...how is his race important to your salvation? If he was white as snow would that be what saves you or that he was pure in heart? Just asking seeing so many are caught up on race and color as if their salvation is somehow dependent on it. just saying.

[AndresaVitor]

@clevelandman2010 How do you know if he is black or not? have you seen him? And it doesn't matter the race he will save you for sure. hahaha

[tiquinha02]

hey i understand if you don't believe but you don't have to disrecpect no one religion...

[greigmonkpics]

@tiquinha02 Sorry were you speaking to me?

[manuelladepaula]

muito bem oh dia feliz 

[greigmonkpics]

@manuelladepaula Alabado sea Dios! Mucho amor para ti

[BigJalapeno]

I gave myself to Jesus, now he never calls.

[greigmonkpics]

@BigJalapeno Fo Real?... or your just never answer?.... just asking.

God speaks all the time but we never take him on because we want a specific answer from him otherwise we say he never spoke. Think about that for a minute.

[BigJalapeno]

@greigmonkpics Jesus is fake... Get over it.

[greigmonkpics]

@BigJalapeno If he is fake why are you commenting on this song.? Just asking? Don't you have better things to do with your time than comment on a song about a fake identity?

[BigJalapeno]

@greigmonkpics no not really, do you not have something better to do than Not commenting back on my post? *troll face*

[greigmonkpics]

@greigmonkpics I am doing what i am supposed to be doing (smile) and enjoying it. As to you (smile) you seem to be out of your place seeing you seem to be commenting on something you do not believe in because of something that happened to you in your past. And yet you are drawn to what you hate. (smile). Such a paradox.

[mastersduhgree]

@BigJalapeno Um...theres more evidence for His existance than there is abraham lincoln."Really".

[BigJalapeno]

@mastersduhgree lol where? in the fake bible?

[greigmonkpics]

Some thing

is part

everything is whole.

[IchFickDeineExistenz]

thumps up if you always sing

"when Darwin washed - when he washed - my stupidity away"

kidding, great song though

peace

science bless

[greigmonkpics]

@IchFickDeineExistenz

Smile....

Darwin.....

God?

Nothing = God =Everything.

Jesus = nothing = Everything

Everything else is Something

Jesus = Everything = Nothing

Make sense?

who can see Jesus now?

[IchFickDeineExistenz]

@greigmonkpics

wow, hey, i know exactly what you mean, man... not.

is there a sense behind this or are those randomly written things?

[greigmonkpics]

@IchFickDeineExistenz Lol. For the untrained mind that does not understand population control these sayings are random. for those who understand KNOW the truth. we have been taught in High School that you cannot divide by 0. well why is that. Later we find out you can and it is infinite.....smile.....I believe you know a lot and do not randomly make jokes...but the details is in what you may not apparently see. As you said so correctly the is a Sense behind what is said.

[greigmonkpics]

@IchFickDeineExistenz Some Thing = part of everything whole = nothing = everything.

Mathematics 0 / infinity = 0 any quantity / 0 = infinity infinity / 0 = infinity 0/ infinity = 0 infinity = everything anything x 0 = 0 0 is a complete circle which is a symbol for eternal or eternity i go deep eternal /any anything = eternal eternal / infinity = eternal anything divided by eternal = infinity anything multiplied by eternal = eternal

[holy3023]

This is my song , thanks , how i love JESUS ? JESUS YOU washed me ,

[greigmonkpics]

@holy3023 Praise God!!!!

[tomsinclairjr]

Sorry but Jesus is NOT black. He is a JEW and Jews are NOT black.

[greigmonkpics]

@tomsinclairjr Really? Who told you that? There are many different Kinds of Jews. Semitic Askenazi Sephardic Asiatic check it out before you talk so confidently.

[greigmonkpics]

@tomsinclairjr Ignorance can be a dangerous thing. always learn and know for yourself otherwise you will find that other men will brainwash you into what they want you to think. Watch the Russian icons and artwork if you think you know they look and match those of Ethiopia called Abysinnia at that time.

[greigmonkpics]

@tomsinclairjr I guess the next thing you are going to tell me is Jesus actually looked like the depiction of him with a beard and long flowing hair and a red sash around his clothing? All of which are erronoeus representations of the him according to the bible and early icons of him as well. Why am I saying this? Not because I care whether Jesus was white or black for He is neither now but because we are brainwashed into what we think he is. So study and know.

[DavidAckatz27]

@greigmonkpics **blue sash 0.0

[ZanimaDeepkoreX]

@tomsinclairjr I don't know if Jesus was black, or white, or semitic, or Asian or whatever, but in all honesty I don't care about His race. It doesn't matter- why would it? We are ALL one race- HUMAN, and Jesus died for us ALL, regardless of our race, nationality, etc.

PRAISE GOD.

[BigJalapeno]

@tomsinclairjr Jesus is black as fuck, and Jesus wasn't Jewish

[dikeana]

this is not the proper happy day i sang it in my school so we know better

[greigmonkpics]

@dikeana The intent was not to be song in a "proper way" it was to expressed deliverance that is all. Sorry if it is not what you were looking for. Thanks for stopping by and taking time to comment.

[patrykgawrych]

I'm happy ;)

[greigmonkpics]

@patrykgawrych Glad to hear that!!!

[ibramblythe1]

aww!, Jesus wasn't a damn nigger !!!

[greigmonkpics]

@ibramblythe1 Wow! Now I have a racist posting well what is new?

[ibramblythe1]

@greigmonkpics yeah, he was Hebrew, u know that :P !!

[greigmonkpics]

@ibramblythe1

Please if you want to be racist be so. Their are many many hebrews who are black or colored to say the least so again you have not said anything. If a depiction of a black Jesus raises such comments from you when God does not even care about race that says volumes about where you are at in your walk in life. Examine yourself in the mirror past your skin color and see what is going on in your heart before pronouncing judgements.

[greigmonkpics]

@ibramblythe1 Geneology supercedes race any day. Family blood lines and tribes are everywhere and have nothing at all to do with race. Think about that. The very so-called black race has inter tribal disputes and the so-called white race has the very same things going on. Again KNOW before you speak. Check out the antropology and KNOW more.

[ArbeitIstFurNichts]

10 humans which they hate it , oh sorry god , but they're an idiots..

[greigmonkpics]

@ArbeitIstFurNichts The fool says in His heart there is no god and yet we pray that the Lord will have mercy on the fool's soul as we were once foolish as they.

[SuperCosmynutza]

ce tare poate sa fie :))

[greigmonkpics]

@SuperCosmynutza Într-adevăr, aceasta este cea mai dureroasă şi dificilă. El a fost în conformitate cu multă întristare şi suferinţă.

@xena1154 The Lord increase you and multiply from you!

[xena1154]

@garretthalo1 it is a pity sorry JESUS DID the best he could do in his life during the time and really I know he is trying to do the best right now! God bless you ( the colour of a human being should not be the question that´s a pity

[greigmonkpics]

@xena1154 Colour is not everything. There are more important things than colour indeed. Amen to that.

[ZipperHead31]

4 people didn't say dislike. They said dis i like. XD (great song)

@ZipperHead31 Praise the Lord!

[uriosth]

Hi,

I would like to know who is the interpret of this version.

Someone has an idea ?

Thx in advance

[greigmonkpics]

@uriosth Sorry I do not understand th equestion?

[greigmonkpics]

Respond to this video... Sorry I did not understand your question.

[garretthalo1]

No offence jesus iz not black like i said NO offence

[greigmonkpics]

@garretthalo1 I am glad you are no longer offended. You were before for by your actions you showed this. Jesus is not black nor any color for He is in you and all who believe His words through His Spirit.

[greigmonkpics]

@garretthalo1 To overcome outward appearances whether in racism or in how we are socialized in society to accept certain things calls for us to embrace Christ. So what if christ as ethiopian or asian looking or aramaic or caucasian? What is that to you? Do we not still have to follow His WORDS? So that we do.

[hadersnffc]

@garretthalo1 hes not black becuase he isnt real!



[garretthalo1]

@hadersnffc your a fagge t IF DONT BEILIEVE IN HIM Y ARE U HERE!?!?!?

[ByeByeBelly]

@garretthalo1 dude, jesus was from the middle east so he would of been pretty damn dark.

[ehc3737]

@garretthalo1 I'm not religious, but because Jesus existed in the middle east in the time period that he did, it's extremely unlikely that he was white. The picture of the "black" Jesus probably portrays his actual skin color much more realistically than most renditions of Jesus do.

@dacoforrest You are not alone my friend. There are so many of us, brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus our Glorious Lord and Saviour. Oh Happy Day when we all join together in the presence of God Almighty and we will all sing together new songs of praise and glory. Look forward to this glorious day, it may be sooner than we think! Oh Happy Day to you all and God Bless you all.

kisses 1965: The 20th century saw its adaptation from 3/4 to 4/4 time and this new arrangement by Hawkins, which contains the repeated refrain only (all of the original verses being omitted).

[greigmonkpics]

kisses1965: Edwin Hawkins' funk style arrangement of the hymn "Oh Happy Day" has a long pedigree: It began as a hymn written in the mid-18th century ("Oh happy day that fixed my choice") by English clergyman Phillip Doddridge (based on Acts 8:35) set to an earlier melody (1704) by J. A. Freylinghausen. By the mid-19th century it had been given a new melody by Edward F. Rimbault and was commonly used for baptismal or confirmation ceremonies in the UK and USA.

[greigmonkpics]

kisses 1965: Next comment:

This has been one of my fav. gospel songs since I was a little girl. I love listening to all the different reditions of it. I went so far as to look it's roots up and found it to be interesting. It has long roots and is such an amazing song that it has stayed popular for over 2 centuries. I am including part of an article I read:

[greigmonkpics]

kisses 1965: The only Jewish heritage I have is what Jesus gave me and made me his sister when he died for my sins and I accepted him into my heart, otherwise I am a white girl with some spanish, american indian and quite a few other nationalities thrown in. I have no problem what so ever accepting that my Jesus more than likely favored the Jewish people. It's genetics plain and simple.

[greigmonkpics]

kisses 1965: God is not described of course. all people take on the characteristics of the parents. I think a lot of people of all races are gonna be in for a big surprise when judgement day comes since they have been so focused on the physical appearance of Jesus instead of what Jesus was all about. People are so focused on the physical appearance of Jesus that they don't realize that they may be offending other brothers and sisters in Christ and breeding anger.

[greigmonkpics]

This is from kisses1965

I am unable to comment on some video's, but wanted to comment on this one due to other comments on there.The Bible never described the physical characteristics of Jesus (to me this just points out that our modern society puts to much emphasis on physical appearance, it's what's on the inside that counts). That being said Mary is considered to be of jewish decent, so like all of us she would have had the characteristics of her race.

[greigmonkpics]

I thank all of you for responding to these videos. Especially you rogers459. I thank you. May God's grace be with you as you continue to move forward in Him. as you know you are my brother and i am priveledged to have this opportunity to share with you. grace and peace be multiplied unto you.

[kisses1965]

@greigmonkpics I am unable to post comments the regular way for some reason. I can only respond.

[greigmonkpics]

@kisses1965 I will see what the problem is so you if it is on my end.

[ROGER459]

This HAS got to be RACIST... as they have A BLACK JESUS....!

[greigmonkpics]

@ROGER459

Why is that a big deal what colour Jesus is and why is a black Jesus offensive to you?

Why does your Jesus have to fit into a box?

Why is someone racist because they do not fit into your criteria?

Why do you look for a spec in your brother's eye when there is a beam in yours?

Shouldn't you take out the beam first in your own eye before examining the spec in your brothers?

[ROGER459]

(Revelation 20:14-15) And death and hell were cast into the Lake of Fire. This is the second death.

(Rev 20:15) And if anyone was not found having been written in the Book of Life, he was cast into the Lake of Fire.

[greigmonkpics]

@ROGER459

To him that overcomes to him He gives of the hidden manna.

[greigmonkpics]

@ROGER459

Judge not that you be not judged.

If you look at my videos you would not be so quick to judge.

You have only revealed what is in your own heart by what you voice on this site.

Really take a look at my videos before judging.

some will be offensive to you but please look.

I am not a proponent of a black Jesus you will find out. I am a follow of Christ period.
