Cleveland, OH (BlackNews.com) - Scientists acknowledge that all people of the earth are a single family and have a common origin. In the Bible, Acts 17:26 states “And he made out of one man every nation of men, to dwell upon the entire surface of the earth...” This Biblical fact proves all races are equal and descend from a common source.

Many people know the Biblical story of Noah and the Ark, but how many know that he was a man of color from whom all races originated? Noah had three sons whose descendants make up the world as we know it. Noah and his sons are depicted in an original piece of artwork from Gary Thomas, artist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame. As part of a nationwide education/awareness campaign, black entrepreneur Eric Johnson, president of Christian Art Network, will offer limited and open edition fine art reproductions beginning during Black History Month in February 2007.

Looking to promote the truth about people of color in the Bible, the print depicts Noah and his family on dry land after the great flood that God sent to destroy wickedness on the earth. Along with the pairs of animals who survived are Noah, his wife, their three sons and their wives. The oldest son Japheth a light brown man, fathered Asians, Europeans, and Indians. Shem the middle son was a brown man and fathered Hebrews, Arabs, and Israelites. Ham the youngest son was a black man and fathered Egyptians, Africans, and Ethiopians. These facts are supported by Biblical scripture.

“We have a strong heritage that most people aren’t aware of, “ said Johnson. We want people everywhere to help us promote the truth concerning the actual way the great patriarchs looked. Once this art is seen by millions of Christians, people will better understand where everyone came from giving dignity and respect to all nationalities. This is a crucial step and the common denominator needed to bring all races harmoniously together. Racism will end when there is mutual respect for everyone. What better way to promote this noble cause than through beautiful art work that speaks for itself! We all know the adage, “A picture is worth a thousand words.” Our objective is to help people of color and more importantly children of color look at themselves in a more positive way. Noah was a preacher of righteousness and our role models should be our Biblical patriarchs. Every detail was taken into consideration to make sure that it coincides with what is written in the Bible,” he concluded.

The free artwork project is being launched during February 2007 in honor of Black History Month. For a limited time, 8.5 x 11” fine art reproductions of Noah and his family will be offered FREE to everyone who visits our website at www.christianartnetwork.com. There is a small postage and handling fee of $4.44, which represents the four angels holding back the four winds at the four-corners of the earth. Revelation 7:1.
