Trey Knowles: Risala 18 – Africa, It's Time


To Africa and all the Islands that be...

A faithful witness does not lie, and victims are not meant to remain silent. I encourage you to bring evil into the light, allowing victims to voice their agony. Fear no more. What can man do to you? What can mere mortals do to you? Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, fear the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

Yet for our Lord’s sake, we may face death all day long; we may be regarded as sheep to be slaughtered. At times, we may feel abandoned, even while remaining faithful. But our Lord will never leave us nor forsake us.

Africa, my Lord, has seen the deeds of your colonizers. Our Lord sees everything, and He has seen the oppression placed upon you. The only debt you owe them is to love them. My Lord also sees their witchcraft and sorcery—manipulation and the misuse of medicine and supernatural practices meant to destroy and harm and make you sick, though such things are often disguised as good...

Africa, be wary of their tactics against you.

Do not allow your colonizers to turn you against your brothers and sisters, causing you to destroy one another. Do not allow them to place wicked men to govern you—kings who take the people’s best fields, vineyards, servants, and livestock, along with a tenth of their grain, reducing the people to slavery. Those wicked rulers serve their colonizers.

Whoever oppresses the poor insults his Maker, but he who is generous to the needy honors Him.

Africa, put your guns down, for these are the weapons of those who do wickedness in the sight of God. They rush to commit evil deeds. They hurry to commit murder.

There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to Him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that hurry to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.

Turn away from every evil practice that comes from the colonizer. Uneducate yourself from their Shakespeare. Turn away from colonizer magical stories and fairytales, and demonic practices come from under their doctrinations.

The works of the Colonizer devil in your life, oh Africa, caused you to gratify the cravings of the colonizer's flesh and follow their desires and thoughts.

Do not do business with the land of the colonizer. Learn from experience that a lying tongue hates its victims, and a flattering mouth brings ruin.

The robbery of the wicked will destroy you, Africa, because you refuse to practice justice. I tell you: to do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice. Hear the wisdom of Solomon—getting treasures by a lying tongue is vanity, tossed to and fro by those who seek death. Those who chase wealth through wicked means pursue their own destruction.

It is a joy for the just to do what is right, but destruction awaits the workers of iniqu
