A lot of people from West and Central Africa, and across the Black diaspora, have wondered why their homelands don’t show up in the pages of Scripture. When you grow up in a world where history books reduce your ancestors to slavery, colonization, and suffering, it’s easy to feel like the Bible wasn’t written with you in mind.

In Daniel 12:4, the angel tells him, “But you, Daniel, keep these words secret and seal the book until the time of the end. Many will roam about, and knowledge will increase.”

That last line, knowledge will increase, feels like it was written for our generation.

The Bible says plainly that “many antichrists” are already in the world, anyone who denies that Jesus Christ came from God (1 John 4:3). But Scripture also warns of the Antichrist, a future world leader who will perform signs and wonders, deceive nations, and lead humanity into rebellion (Revelation 13:1-8).

This raises the question of why so many Christians, especially in the United States, feel obligated to support the modern Israeli government. Many point to Genesis 12:3, where God tells Abraham, 

“I will bless those who bless you, I will curse anyone who treats you with contempt, and all the peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”

Candace’s critics often accuse her of seeking fame or money, but Scripture reminds us:

“Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.” - Proverbs 16:18  

If her motives were rooted in pride alone, Scripture teaches that it would eventually expose her.

Traoré has publicly stated that he wants unity between Muslims and Christians, and many believers have praised him for his leadership. Some even say he carries a “Jesus-like” aura because of his passion for justice and national restoration.
