What In The World Has Happened To The Church There was a time when ministers of the gospel were well respected. There was also a time when Christians were known as people who could be trusted; sadly those days seem to be so long ago. It’s hard to believe that people who say they have a relationship with Jesus Christ are not any different from any other religious people. When I was a child miracles were what was expected when we went to church. People never had to beg God to do what God does, the bibles says ‘ask and it shall be given’ (Matt 7:7) Jesus said if you cannot believe everything I have spoken, then believe what you have seen (John 14:11) Many people ministering today should not be in the pulpit, ‘there are so many false doctrines’, I believe most people understand that statement.

The Race When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things (1 Corinthians 13:11).    On February 25, 1964 a big mouth 22 year old Cassius Clay defeated one of the most u npopular boxers of all time Sonny Liston with a 7 th round TKO, nobody expected this to happen, it could be liken to the biblical character of David fighting Goliath.  I was not born when this fight took place but as a child in the 1970’s,  I remember watching this great fighter, whom by then had changed his name to Mohammed Ali, the reason behind his conversion,can be found in some of Ali's interviews, my brief version is because of the ignorance of religion especially certain white Christians acting as if they were superior to the black race.  D.
