The Premise of LoveLove of God, Love of Country,

Love of Self, Love of Humanity, the Will to Serve.

The PremiseAmor a Dios, Amor Al Pais,

Amor A Uno Mismo, Amor a la Humanidad,y el querer servir.

By Dr. J. Ester Davis

Earlier this week we were eyewitness to two distinct differ-ences in America. One a cele-bration. The other a tragedy.One in Washington, DC. Theother in Baltimore. Both in thesame time zone. Minutes apartin timing and distance. One washistory making. The other histo-ry repeating itself. One afemale. The other male. Bothwere African America. One wasalive with a promotion. Theother dead with no resume.One was an outsider. The otherhighly respected. One youngand troubled. The other break-ing the glass ceiling. And. . .both drew a crowd.

These two tales of life inAmerica just left me emotionalblank. I did not see the day as

one of celebration for anyone.Can you imagine this as yourfirst day on the job? What areyou thinking? With everyone inAmerica, rich or poor, job orhomeless, carrying a camera,you have to face a cameras andtalk about strength, challengingand trust? Add to this. . . thecontinuing state of circum-stances before us, we surelyneed something more to believein.

Weeks before one of thelargest holiday of the year,Mothers, around the world,are watching another blackwoman they do not know sitthrough a lengthy funeral won-dering what happened. Fathersand mentors are heavy withquestions that have no answers.How insensitive of us toapprove televising a funeralanyway. This "movie" is a rerun. We know what the endingwill be. This "movie" has thesame plot, the same storylineand the same conclusion. Thecharacters remain the same, thecostuming (uniforms) is consis-tent and the script is masterful-ly rehearsed played in differentcities with the appropriatedialect.

When you take an indepthlook into the tale of twoAmericas, the confirmation ofour new Attorney General

started out with mayhem. ThePresident called her five monthdelayed nomination to confir-mation "crazy" in one presssetting and "embarrassing and alot of political gamesmanship"later on. The confirmation washeld up because of a deliberateimpasse in the Senate that hadmore to do with the President'sexecutive decisions than thequalified attorney's new title.

While Loretta Lynch was tak-ing the oath of office as thenation's Attorney General, abereaved family down thestreet was preparing to givetheir twenty-five(25)year oldloved one, Freddie Gray, aChristian funeral. There existnot an inch of peace, trust andcelebration in these change ofevents.

I will have to close and con-clude that these two Americasdo indeed have a commondenominator. Loretta Lynch andthe twenty something FreddieGrays of America are both"lightning rods".

History will not be kind to usfor these eye witness distinctdifferences held in the 21st cen-tury.

REV. JOHNNY C. SMITH,

PASTOR – MOUNT MORIAHMISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH

Isaiah's prophecy, we haveseen, gives us a vivid pictureof the suffering ministry ofour Saviour, Jesus Christ.Many scholar believe thatIsaiah chapter 53 is a part of aseries of poems called servantsongs. This song begins inIsaiah chapter 52:13 throughIsaiah chapter 53:12. In thischapter 53, we are acquaint-ed with the early life and min-istry of Jesus Christ; a life thatwas characterized by beingmisunderstood and beingsubjected to untold sufferingfor you and me. Certainly,this chapter unfolds that Heindeed suffered for us. Peter,an apostle of Jesus Christ,wrote centuries later thatJesus Christ suffered thehumiliation of the cross expe-rience when he said: "WhoHis Own self bare our sins inHis own body on the tree,that we, being dead to sins,should live unto righteous-ness: by whose stripes yewere healed." (I Peter 2:24).And Paul, another apostle,wrote that Christ experiencedbeing our substitute for sin,for he said - "For He hathmade Him to be sin for us,who knew no sin; that wemight be made the righteous-ness of God in Him. (IICorinthians 5:21).

In a previous article, wehave noticed that Isaiah'sreport depicted the life anddeath of Jesus Christ. It was areport that largely went unno-ticed (v.1). Not heeding thereport, the Jewish nation'sreaction to the person ofChrist was one of rejectingHim because of the humbleway He came into the world -mainly, Jesus was "despisedand rejected" (v.3). AS theGod-man, He totally identi-fied with the "griefs and sor-rows" of mankind as the suf-fering servant (v.4-5). The"sorrows and griefs that char-acterized Jesus' whole lifemade Him repulsive to peo-ple. Yet, He did not allow Hisrejection to become the basisof Him refusing to completeHis suffering ministry on ourbehalf. The mission-mindedSaviour of the world invadedhumanity with a definite pur-pose in mind, for Mark 10:45says, "For even the Son of

man came not to be minis-tered unto, but to minister,and to give His life a ransomefor many." The report thatwent basically unnoticed,compares us to sheep who"have gone astray" (Isaiah53:6).

The load of sin in which Icarried alone made it impossi-ble for me to have peace withGod. However, our Lordaccomplished something or awork for us, in that, the Fatherlaid "on him (Christ) the iniq-uity of us all" (v.6). We allstood universally condemnedbefore God, but Jesus Christtook upon Himself the pun-ishment that we deserved ona rugged tree called a cross.From verses 7-10, the volun-tary nature of Jesus' sufferingon our behalf is in view. Hesuffered silently (v.7) and wasassigned to be buried with thewicked (v.8) but God inter-vened, and through thebenevolence of a friend, Jesuswas placed "with the rich inHis death (Matthew 27:57).According to one writer, Hisnoteworthy burial was thebeginning of the glorificationwhich started with His death.On a larger note, it "pleasedthe Lord to bruise Him" (v.10).The Father took delight in HisSon's suffering because Herecognized His suffering waspart of a larger plan. Jesus'death did not end His exis-tence because He was raisedto life, in that He "shall see Hisseed." The term, "seed,"refers to all of those whoaccept His suffering on theirbehalf. Jesus shall also liveeternally for the Lord "shallprolong His days" (v.10).

In closing, many people donot live to see the fulfillmentof their life's work. But, this isnot so with the suffering ser-vant - Jesus Christ. AlthoughHe suffered for us, the Sonwill be "satisfied" (Isa. 53:11)with what He accomplishedon the cross. Having experi-enced the agony of the crossexperience on our behalf, Godpromised that He would givethe Lord Jesus "a portion withthe great." Oh yes! The sameOne who was rejected by Hispeers, has been exalted andsatisfied all of the demands ofHoly God. The servant (theLord Jesus) will "divide thespoils with the strong" (v.12).The "strong" are the oneswho have believed the report.In closing, again Our Lord hasa continuing ministry of pray-ing for us. Let's see some-thing here in Isaiah 53 - OurLord was rejected for us, diedand was buried for us, roseand gained the victory for us,and has a continuing prayerministry for us as He sits atthe right hand (honor) of theFather. Certainly, after humil-iation comes the exaltation.May God indeed Bless!

"By faith Abraham obeyedwhen he was called to set outfor a place that he was toreceive as an inheritance; andhe set out, not knowingwhere he was going. By Faithhe stayed for a time in theland he had been promised"(Hebrews 11:8-9).

Where are you in yourfaith? Do you have the faithof Abraham? Many of us donot. We have to work at beingfaithful. But Abraham's faithwas steady. As difficult situa-tions came Abraham's way,he did not waiver. This is partof our walk with God. Life willhave its difficulties. We willface many mountains and wemight fall down. However, itdoes not mean that we haveto lose our faith during thedifficult times. It's during

these times that we can learnto deepen our faith.

Once our faith is deep-ened, we then have to learnhow to act on our faith.Acting on our faith means todo what He has placed on ourhearts to do. Act like a victorand not a victim. So learn tobe a person full of faith. Avoidbeing a faithless person. Faithrequires action.

In the book of Hebrews ittalks about other individualswho had strong faith and theywere doers. They were indi-viduals who refused to sit ontheir faith. For example, Noahwas another one of thoseindividuals who walked byfaith. "By faith Noah, whenwarned about things not yetseen, in holy fear built an arkto save his family" (Hebrews11: 7). Noah had no ideawhen the storm would come,but he knew a storm wascoming. He believed whatGod had told him to do andhe did it.

The next time you feel asthough your faith is notstrong, hold onto your "littlebit of faith" and do what Godis telling you to do. Walk infaith, my friend.

Amen? Amen.

BY CONGRESSWOMANEDDIE BERNICE JOHNSON

During the coming months,Congress will be asked to con-sider the most comprehen-sive and ambitious trade dealof our time. The Trans-PacificPartnership (TPP) is one ofthe cornerstones of PresidentBarack Obama's trade agen-da. It seeks to improve the

U.S. economy and those ofeleven other countries.

Australia, Brunei, Canada,Chile, Japan, Malaysia,Mexico, New Zealand, Peru,Singapore and Vietnam aredependent upon the compre-hensive and high-standardfree trade agreement.

Some of these countrieslack minimum labor, environ-mental, and humanitarianstandards, all of whichPresident Obama and hischief negotiators strive toaddress and enforce in theTPP deal.

Before TPP or theTransatlantic Trade andInvestment Partnership (T-TIP) can be considered byCongress, a trade promotionauthority (TPA) bill must bepassed.

TPA bills outlineCongressional guidance tothe administration on tradepolicy and establish require-ments for trade agreements.Many refer to TPA as "fasttrack" because trade agree-ments would be sent toCongress for an up-or-downvote with no amendmentsallowed.

Essentially, this gives theadministration the power tonegotiate trade deals withoutCongressional input. PriorTPA bills have established thefast-track measure; however,a TPA bill currently underconsideration includes lan-guage that enables Congress

to reject the fast-trackprocess if 60 Senators decidethat the president ignorednegotiating objectives man-dated by Congress.

Arguments against fast-track certainly have had somevalidity.

However, lawmakers inCongress have shown com-mitment to a TPA bill thatincludes a strong measure ofCongressional oversight.

A free-trade agreementwould only help our econo-my. In 2014, more than 1.1million American jobs weredirectly supported by manu-factured goods and exports.

In fact, Texas leads thenation in exports and jobsdirectly linked to them. In2014, Texas exported $289billion in goods, and led thenation in manufacturingexports by a large margin.

In 2013, the metropolitanarea of Dallas-Ft. Worth-Arlington exported $27.6 bil-lion in goods to the rest of theworld. In past trade agree-ments, Texas' main exportswere from the oil and gasindustry.

The economic expansion ofTexas has made our state suc-cessful with agriculturalexports, such as beef, vealand plant products, whilemanufacturing exports nowinclude electronics, chemi-cals, and machinery andtransportation equipment.

The Dallas economydepends on free and fairtrade. With four out of five ofDallas' top export marketscovered by TPP (Canada,Mexico, Singapore) and T-TIP(Netherlands), the NorthTexas export market is inte-gral to any strategy that aimsto grow the economies ofDallas and Texas.

These free trade agree-ments will undoubtedly helpthe U.S., and enhance aglobal commitment by ourpartner nations to improvedlabor, environmental, andhumanitarian standards.

As we negotiate two of thelargest trade deals in our his-tory, we must consider thepositive impact that interna-tional trade has on our stateeconomy, as well as on ournational economy and theglobal economy.

BY BENJAMIN F. CHAVIS, JR.NNPA COLUMNIST

After a 166-day partisanpolitical struggle in the U.S.Senate to confirm the firstBlack American woman to bethe attorney general of theUnited States, finally on theafternoon of April 23, historywas made. Loretta ElizabethLynch has now been con-firmed by the Senate by avote of 56 to 43 after beingnominated last year byPresident Barack Obama.

I have known the Lynchfamily for a long time inDurham, N.C., where LorettaLynch's father, Rev. LorenzoLynch Sr., served faithfully asthe Senior Pastor of the leg-endary White Rock BaptistChurch from 1965 to 1993.Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.gave one his famous ser-mons in 1960 at the WhiteRock Baptist Church titled,"Fill Up the Jails," thatencouraged nonviolent civildisobedience as the strategictactic to advance civil rights.

Loretta Lynch, in additionto being well qualified to bethe attorney general of theU.S. as an accomplished fed-eral prosecutor and legalscholar, also comes from astrong Black American familythat has made outstandingcontributions and sacrificestoward the progress of BlackAmerica for over four gener-ations in North Carolina andthroughout the nation.

President Obama madethe right decision at the righttime concerning LorettaLynch. The baton is beingpassed now from AttorneyGeneral Eric Holder, who didan outstanding job as thefirst Black American to beattorney general, to LorettaLynch at a time when ram-pant racially motivatedpolice killings of Black peopleacross the nation is escalat-ing.

In addition to critical issuesof ending police racial profil-ing and the unlawful use ofdeadly force against BlackAmericans, the new attorneygeneral will have to confrontthe growing unconstitutionalmeasures by many state leg-islatures to suppress anddeny the voting rights ofBlack Americans in particular.Attorney General Lynch willhave to help lead the wayback to Congress restoringSection 4 of the Voting RightsAct of 1965 that the U.S.Supreme Court invalidated.

Racial discrimination inhousing, health care delivery,mass incarceration, banklending policies, access towealth, environmental pro-

tection, public education,and unjust policies in highereducation opportunities fordisadvantaged college stu-dents all are crucial mattersthat Attorney General Lynchwill have to confront. I amconfident, however, givenLynch's proven track recordof rising to the occasion indemanding that justice isdone, that she will do wellgoing forward.

I wish I could say that I wassurprised to see that the twoRepublican Senators fromNorth Carolina, Richard Barrand ThomTillis, both votedagainst Lynch, even thoughthey knew of her qualifica-tions and track record ofleadership. The attacks onPresident Obama and onLoretta Lynch were not justpolitically motivated. Ibelieve that these attackswere are also racially moti-vated.

Lezli Baskerville, notedlawyer and president andCEO of the NationalAssociation for EqualOpportunity in HigherEducation (NAFEO) stated,"The confirmation of U.S.Attorney Lynch comes at atime when leadership fromthe Attorney General and theDepartment's EducationalOpportunities Section isessential to ensuring thatstates that maintain a highereducation system with bothpublic historically black col-leges and universities(HBCUs) and historicallywhite colleges and universi-ties (HWCUs) invest in HBCUssuch that they are compara-ble to and competitive withHWCUs relative to their mis-sions." The past and presentracial inequities in educationin America have to be chal-lenged anew.

Racism persists in Americain part because it is notcalled out enough. Yes, wehave made progress towardracial equality and justice.But we are not there yet. Wehave not reached the finishline to end racial injusticeand inequality. We still havenot overcome and we mustremain vigilant and vocal andin the quest for freedom, jus-tice and equality.

We, therefore congratulateAttorney General LorettaLynch and wish her all thebest. It will not be easy, butwe know and believe thatmore great achievement andnational leadership are onthe horizon of the future.Thank you Sister Lynch formaking history and for con-tinuing to make a difference.

Loretta Lynch Came from aFamily of Activists

Trinity toll roadA major issue in Dallas' munici-

pal elections in 2015 is the debateover the Trinity Parkway. The proj-ect proposes a six-lane toll road,about nine miles long, that wouldconnect Interstate 35 East to U.S.175 around the downtown area. Itis meant to relieve the amount oftraffic on two routes, the I-30 andI-35E. In 1998, voters approved aballot measure for the use of $84million for the project. Votersagain supported the road in 2007when a referendum to block itscreation was defeated by 53 per-cent of voters. The North TexasTollway Authority (NTTA) esti-mates that it will cost $1.3 billion.

Mayor Mike Rawlings is a propo-nent of the project. He stated inDecember 2014, "The more I getchallenged on the parkway, andthe more I study it, the firmer myfeet get in the concrete about thisbeing an important thing for thecity of Dallas."[6] Rawlings, andother supporters of the tollway,say that Dallas' traffic congestion isa major problem, and that the newhighway would enable residents ofsouthern Dallas to more easily getto jobs in the northern part of thecity. Rawlings also said that resi-dents' satisfaction with mobility inthe city has dropped eight pointssince 2011.[6]

Marcos Ronquillo has focusedon his opposition of the Trinity tollroad in his mayoral campaign. Heasserts that spending $1.3 billionon the road is not justifiable, andthe city should instead use itsresources for infrastructure needs."That's where our money shouldbe going instead of to a toll roadnobody wants," he said.[7]Ronquillo also criticized the lack oftransparency of the TrinityParkway "dream team", a group of12 transportation and urbandesign experts, whose purpose isto make suggestions addressingconcerns over the project's plans.Richard P. Sheridan, the third may-oral candidate, also opposes thetollway.[8][9]

Other arguments against thetollway is its closeness to plannedparks and recreation areas. TheDallas Green Alliance PAC (DGA)was created with the purpose ofgetting opponents of the tollwayelected to the city council. As ofthe 2015 election, four councilmembers are considered to beanti-tollway. The DGA's goal is toget eight anti-tollway candidateselected. The PAC announced itsendorsements near the end ofMarch for candidates in seven dis-tricts, as well an endorsement forRonquillo.[10]

Local focus or big-pictureRonquillo says he wants the city

to re-focus on the poorer neigh-borhoods in Dallas and improveroads and infrastructure. To high-light his point, he stood in a pot-hole while announcing his candi-dacy for mayor. He said the num-ber of residents living in poverty inthe city has increased. "Dallas isthe hole in the doughnut, it's sup-posed to be the anchor," he said inreference to the better-off suburbsof the city.[11]

According to The DallasMorning News, Rawlings has takena more big-picture approach in hiscampaign, in comparison toRonquillo's focus on improvingbasic services. Rawlings says hewill make Dallas a world-class city.Ronquillo criticized Rawlings'regional, as opposed to local,focus. Rawlings said, "We don'thave to choose between thinkingbig or thinking small. We shouldbe doing both." Ronquillo has saidthat Dallas cannot be a world-classcity if the basic needs of its resi-dents are not addressed.

O Divine Master,

Grant that I may not somuch seek To be consoled,as to console; To be under-stood, as to understand; Tobe loved as to love. For it isin giving that we receive; Itis in pardoning that we arepardoned; And it is in dyingthat we are born to eternal

life. Amen.

She spoke out against whatshe called a blatant mischarac-terization of her words aboutdestruction and violence thathappened after a day of peace-ful protests on Saturday.

"I was asked a questionabout property damage. Webalance a very fine linebetween giving peaceful pro-testors space to protest.People can hijack that and usethat place for bad. I didn't saywe were accepting of that."

De Sousa said that 15 policeofficers had been injured byflying debris during the unrest.He said most had been treated

for minor injuries and released,while two remained hospital-ized.

He said that 75-100 school-aged children caused the vio-lence. He said, as of the confer-ence, 27 arrests had beenmade. He also said that policewould be monitoring video todetermine if any other arrestswould be made.

"Could we have done thingsdifferently? We have to assesthat," he said.

Councilman Jack Young alsocondemned the clashes.

"This is unacceptable. This isnot what Freddie Gray's family

wanted," he said."These are thugs who are

seizing upon an opportunity toshow their anger and distrust.We have to let the Departmentof Justice and the state attor-ney do their job. Our job is toget it right," he said. "It's yourjob as the media to reportthat."

"These are not the peoplewho live in Sandtown-Winchester," he said. These areopportunists and we are notgoing to tolerate it. Justice willprevail."

BE KIND! Never speak

harsh words. Be kind

and gentle with your

tongue. For it has

been said that the

tongue can be like a

sword. Think long

before you criticize

your neighbor. Your

tongue can be nasty.

Living is one of the

most beautiful things

in the world. But the

tongue can kill!
