if "it does not matter" as you say, then why not just tell the truth! it's not an issue, it's the truth! he made the video to tell the truth! just because some do not want to hear the truth does not mean it should not be said.

Apparently, you must not had read in Matthew with God had told David to take Jesus to Egypt to blend in with the people there.
Egyptians from old photos described the Egyptians as being black. Furthermore, Cush people which is clearly stated in the bible are black people.
He brought the color in question because society portray that blacks had nothing to do with faith. Apparently, you have not done your research on the topic because there are many misleading literatures on Jesus

Jesus said in Matt 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. So your wrong brother the Messiah did not come to bring to peace but division.

1 Maccabees 3:48 And laid open the book of the law, wherein the heathen had sought to paint the likeness of their images.

@monkey2d2luffy P.s. I just noticed that you addressed the "curse"... Do as you will, but I'd encourage you to ignore it. Don't legitimize it. Don't engage it as though it was viable. People have been taking scripture out of context for over a thousand years as an excuse for the maltreatment of one group or another. Meanwhile, they continue to ignore Christ's mandate that "all have sinned" and "whosoever believeth" and "love thy neighbor as thyself". No color distinction is made.

@TheIsraelite7777 That's incorrect. History refutes you. Babylonians, Egyptians, Arabic, Phoenician, Greek, Roman, and the recorded history of virtually every civilization that existed at the time that was aware of Israel and its people record no significant/prominent difference in appearance for Israelites distinguishable from any other peoples that lived in the area - medium pigmented Mediterranean/Arabic people. Sub-Saharan Africans were black. Get an education.

@monkey2d2luffy As for the "white" vs. "black" Jesus thing, I agree and disagree. It doesn't matter in terms of Salvation for one. But, it is also true that it would be as accurate to have a "black" Jesus in a movie as it would be to have a "white" Jesus. However, I find a lot of the discussions on YouTube to be nonsense. Jesus and the rest of the Israelites were Mediterranean/Arabic people. Neither "white" nor "black", but a range of medium pigmentation. That's historical fact.

@monkey2d2luffy I don't know how I find myself in this little nook of the Internet, but here I am. Anyway, yeah, most "black" people are dark brown or brown. I remember when I was little, I was always confused by people using the term "black". However, as an adult I've had the experience of meeting literally black African immigrants, and finding out that almost all sub-Saharan Africans were literally black before Arabs and Europeans significantly mixed with Africans.
Is Pastor Dowell's skin color brownish? Isn't he called "black"? So if Christ looked like Pastor Dowell's complexion could he not have been a "black" man?
I hate to use the man made terms "black" or "White" because they cause confusion... GOD gave us nationalities. Christ was an Israelite... specifically a Judite. And the original Judites were and still are what you might call "black" or "negroid". If the truth causes division, then someone has a problem with the truth.

I'm white and I know for a fact Jesus was a black man. The Bible says so. African Americans are the only people that can be under the curses outlined in Deuteronomy 28. Nobody else fits that profile.
