    Gen.9. 20-27 "In his tent" (2 of 2)

    Noah cursed Canaan that does not connect Ham's gossip over his father's drunkenness. "and knew what his younger son had done unto him./And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren./And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.

    First we shall give a scriptural basis for singling out Ham's stock. Noah as set by the Spirit is perfect. God himself testifies, "for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation." (7.1) He is also double for the Father in heaven, resting literally from his labour. "And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without." Ham merely spoke what was not his business in the first place nor in a manner to give honour to his sire. Is it any different that TV evangelists who gloat over their 'prosperity' and celebrity status than truth of the word?

    Had the nation heard Christ past 250 years the nation should have been the radiant city on a hill.Do we find rest in soul there? "For I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls." Instead we have a bigot in WH ambushing a visiting dignitary, an African to hear his lies. The same lies the preachers over there peddled over slavery question, have spawned yet another imbecile. It is how Ham carried tale to his brethren. Noah from foreknowledge spoke how wealth shall turn up to trouble the history of man. " For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:/But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise." This is what we see there.

    The Spirit is not telling us stories to keep the narrative flowing from cause to effect. Here we shall see nations, for instance "These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their countries, and in their nations," has a bearing on the tower of Babel.
