OATH TO OUR ANCESTORS
By Pastor Ray Hagins
O Ancestors! Blacker than a thousand midnights…
Afrikan Ancestors! It is to YOU that we, your children, give respect and honor.
O Ancestors! We call upon YOU and welcome you in this place…
Afrikan Ancestors! Let your presence fill this place.
O Ancestors! Who have been purposely excluded from the history books, so that the world would not know of your greatness…
Our Afrikan Ancestors! Who gave civilization to the world…
Our Afrikan Ancestors! Who gave the arts to the world…
Our Afrikan Ancestors! Who gave music to the world…
Our Afrikan Ancestors! Who gave the sciences to the world…
Our Afrikan Ancestors! Who gave mathematics to the world…
Our Afrikan Ancestors! Who gave medicine to the world…
Our Afrikan Ancestors! Who gave literature to the world…
Our Afrikan Ancestors! Who gave philosophy to the world…
Our Afrikan Ancestors! Who gave God consciousness to the world…
O Ancestors! We thank you for devoting your life to make a future for us, your children, grand children, and great grandchildren.
Now, stand with us; strengthen us; guide us; teach us, and protect us from the snare of our enemies!
Rise up, O Afrikan Ancestors, and let our enemies be scattered! And give us the wisdom and the boldness to deal with our oppressors and those who would hinder the liberation and empowerment of our people.
Rise up, O Afrikan Ancestors, and live in us.
We will not fail to honor you;
We will not fail to respect you;
We will not fail to hear you;
And we will NOT betray you!

It is long, long past due that 'we' as peoples of color learn our customs, beliefs and culture! It is long past time that we honor/worship our ancestors, thus by doing so we see the beauty, power and human worth in ourselves! It is time to disconnect from Payola! By the fact that you live in and upon this Divine and Sacred Mother Earth you must pay your enemies for your human existence! WAKE UP just like Rev. HAGINS is teaching! Who/Whom purchased this Earth? When? Where? How? WAKE UP!!!
