Ben
Ammi
Anointed Spiritual Leader
A review of the Biblical history shows us that it is not unusual
for the Omnipotent God to anoint a personal representative on earth
and to invest His authority in that representative.
Abraham was called the "friend of God." (II Chr, 20:7) Moses was
told that while Aaron would speak on his behalf, Moses himself,
would stand in the stead of God. (Exodus 4: 16) Jeremiah was chosen
of God before he was formed in the womb. (Jeremiah 1:5) And
remember, Yeshua told his disciples that "whatever ye shall ask the
Father in my name, He shall give it to you." (John 16:23)
Nevertheless, there will be those who look upon this author, Ben
Ammi Ben-Israel, Messianic Leader of the Kingdom of God, and wonder,
"how dare this man proclaim this community to be that spoken of by
the inspired prophets of Israel? And on what authority does he
receive this mantle of messianic leadership?
Any sincere review of his works will certainly lead one to the
obvious conclusions.

In 1966, he received a vision in which the angel
Gabriel revealed that the time had come for the descendants of the
Biblical Israelites among African Americans, to return to the
Promised Land and establish the Kingdom of God! A year later,
despite his own anxiety, and the skepticism of many, he led 350
African Americans from inner-city Chicago an a journey to the bush
of Liberia, West Africa.
·
The challenges of the sojourn in this West African
wilderness would be many, as the pioneers would face the searing
heat, poisonous snakes, driver ants by the millions and a rainy
season of monsoon proportions… all while living in tents and
thatched-roofed dwellings, and forced to learn to feed themselves.

In 1969, the first members of that community entered
the Promised Land and laid the foundation for God's Kingdom on
earth-simply a government of men and women governed by the laws of
God. After initially being received as new immigrants, by 1971 they
saw their status revoked. There without legal protection, the
African Hebrews, as they came to be known, endured cyclical attempts
at deportation, banishment from national educational and health care
systems and repeated attacks on their character. Instead of
retreating, the Hebrews used the adversity as motivation, building
their own schools, health care and economic infrastructures to
provide for themselves.
·
By 1990, their courageous efforts were rewarded as
legal obstacles were removed and the community became renowned as an
oasis of social harmony, free of crime, drug abuse and immorality.
Israeli media declared the community "an island of sanity," and
extolled the inspired leadership of Ben Ammi. Even the American
Congress took notice, labeling the accomplishments, "the miracle in
the desert."
For the last 14 years, the general public has been exposed to the
intellect of Ben Ammi through his writings, collectively and
appropriately called "The Resurrection Series." This includes the
books God the Black Man and Truth; God and the Law of
Relativity; The Messiah and the End of This World;
Everlasting Life… from thought to reality, Jesus the
Christian Christ or Yeshua the Hebrew Messiah and An
Imitation of Life. Yet viewed through the prism of his
achievements, we are compelled to know that he is much more than an
author.
So when on asks, "by what authority?" I am reminded of the words
of Prince Asiel Ben Israel, the International Ambassador of the
Kingdom of God. Observing the unsettled expressions of an audience,
confronted with the realization of Ben Ammi's work and the
accomplishments of the community, he remarked:
" When a man stands up and says God inspired him to build a
church, and he accomplishes that in spite of obstacles like economic
shortfalls, construction mishaps or architectural problems, no one
is angry and they proclaim that certainly God was with him.
Likewise, if a man declares that God instructed him to found a choir
to proclaim the word of truth in song, immediately after the first
concert we are satisfied that truly God was with him. Well, today we
have the man who was inspired by God to return the descendants of
the Biblical Israelites to the Holy Land and establish the prophetic
Kingdom of God… and we are here as a witness to the accomplishments
of Ben Ammi. We can just as assuredly announce that God is with him
and this is the Kingdom of God!"
For those who have been watchers of time, searching for the
messenger sent from God, we implore you… take heart, be of good
courage…
Behold the man of God…
