  • DrMHMartins LDS was behind

    113 years before the LDS Mormon Church in May 4,1865 the RLDS church under the RLDS Mormon Prophet Joseph Smith III,gave a revelation that Blacks could hold the priesthood.The LDS Mormon church did theirs in 1978.

    Revelation given through RLDS MORMON PROPHET President Joseph Smith III,May 4,1865.

    [Sec 116:1c] Therefore it is expedient in me that you ordain priests unto me,of every race who receive the teachings of my law,and become heirs according to the promise.

  • Seed of Cain & Ham Cursed from the Priesthood

    (Pearl of Great Price Abraham1:21-27)

    21 Now this king of Egypt was a descendant from the loins of Ham, and was a partaker of the blood of the Canaanites by birth.

    24...from HAM, sprang that race which preserved the CURSE in the land.

    25...Pharaoh, the eldest son of Egyptus, the daughter of HAM...

    26 Pharaoh...but cursed him as pertaining to the Priesthood.

    27 Now, Pharaoh being of that lineage by which he could not have the right of Priesthood

  • LDS Mormons Believe BLACK Africans are of the SEED OF CAIN AND HAM.The seed of Cain and Ham where Cursed Black in the LDS Mormon Pearl of great Price Scriptures-->

    ". . . there was a blackness came upon all the children of Canaan, that they were despised among all people . . . (Pearl of Great Price Moses 7:8)."

    "And . . . they were a mixture of all the seed of Adam save it was the seed of Cain, for the seed of Cain were black, and had not place among them (Pearl of Great Price Moses 7:22)."

  • Martin This teaches White Mormons that Black skin is a CURSE & White Mormons can preach it and say it is FROM the Mormon GOD

    "...cursing to come upon them, yea, even a sore cursing...the Lord God did cause a skin of BLACKNESS to come upon them (Book of Mormon 2 Nephi 5:21)"

    "And the skins..were DARK,according to the MARK which was set upon their fathers..which WAS A CURSE upon them...(Book of Mormon,Alma 3:6)"

    "and the CURSING which hath come upon their skins...(Book of Mormon, Jacob 3:5)"

  • "Apostles are called to represent the Lord before the people, not the other way around"
