In  truth,  self-identity  based  on  race  is  unsustainable,

            because  the  sociological  definition  of  race  is  unstable
            and  erratic.    In  truth,  self-identity  based  on  race  is
            unsupportable,  because  the  sociological  definition  of

            race is not supportable biologically. In truth, self-identity
            based  on  race,  while  factual  is  untruthful,  because  it

            does not align with Biblical truth.  So, let us now look at
            human identity based on the Biblical view of race.


            Human  Identity  Based  on  the  Biblical  Definition  of
            Race-The Spiritual Thinker View – A healthy self-identity

            is anchored in the WORD of TRUTH. It is not subject to
            worldly  standards,  the  opinions  of  others,  the  latest

            cultural  trends  or  our  abilities  or  inabilities.    It  is  not
            subject  to  the  color  of  our  skin,  our  ancestors,  or  our

            ethnic heritage.  It transcends how we feel, how well we
            perform, what we own, the car(s) we drive, and the size

            of our bank accounts.  It is not impacted by our age, or
            gender.   It unites us into one family, one purpose, and

            one race - the human race - created by the GOD of all
            science,  of  all  knowledge,  of  all  power  and  all  glory  -

            GOD our FATHER.  HE and only HE, defines our identity.
            In  HIS  supreme  sovereignty  and  love,  HE  provides  ten
                                                 13
            Scriptural bases for our identity.  Specifically, these are:


            GOD designed us in HIS image and likeness; we are the
            pinnacle  of  HIS  creation  Genesis  1:26-27:  Then  GOD
