Death is one of the ultimate human problems. The Bible has an answer for this in its idea of the Resurrection of the dead. We acknowledge that the idea of a Resurrection at all speaks of a notion that may seem quite unrealistic from some frameworks of thought. However, the framework of faith ought not to be discounted. The Bible has remarkable accuracies. The Bible being true, everything we need to get from present day to the Resurrection of the Dead is within reach, even so close, it is like it has been right under our feet all this time. Part of the awaited Resurrection centers on the Bible's featured people, the Israelites. There are some things in history and society about the Israelites that if society were shown through a Biblical lens, society would have a chance to embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ better, if meant to, and the gospel's spread to the ends of the earth is a prerequisite for the Resurrection. One pertinent subject is the notion of the original Israelites in the Bible being Black people, a people who had some of their sub-populations “Whiten” over time and others who have become the remaining Black people today, making them all Israelites. Black people’s particular plights and their future are hypothetically framed within this context in this series. Some things in the Bible line up better when considering Black people as included in those who are Israelites. If people saw how closely things the Bible hints about Israelites align with what we know about non-Jewish Black identity and Black experiences, in a way that excludes other causes, we might better see that the God of the Bible is real, truthful, accurate, thorough, alive and well, and doing just what he said he would do, even to the finest detail. Another link to the Resurrection is this knowledge, which the books discuss, could foster change that places God's people right where they need to be in relation to God, another prerequisite for the Resurrection. True faith should not force others. It should show others. Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes is a chapter-by-chapter set of examples that show that the idea of Black people as true Israelites could be true, a theme often broached in conversations among individuals in the Black community, but rarely addressed with the seriousness the makers of this series feels it deserves. The series' teachings would remind some of us of how easily we are deceived by our own biases, to have not seen this all along. This topic is concluded in ten books, each book, with ten chapters. Points are explored relatively concisely. Book 1, simply titled “Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes,” introduces the series, then jumps right into some points and arguments. Book 2, Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes 2, shares some of the more personal, family-oriented, and intimate arguments. Book 3 looks at more arguments, and, particularly, how slight details add big meaning... In the end, actions that might be taken are explored. If this theory is wrong but we act on it as addressed in this series, not much will be lost. If this theory is right and we act on it as addressed in the books of this series, according to the Bible, the Israelite (or Black) plights will end, all other people groups will be blessed, the resurrection will follow, and Our Creator will have His vindication. In fact, in the Bible, it is not an “if” or “would.” It is a “when.” Needless to say, it will be worth it. Come and let us reason together as WTL International brings the arguments of Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes to you and those you connect with, an important set of pieces to this grand puzzle called “life," marred by death and plight, but tempered with understanding and in this understanding, autonomy over its final destiny.
