Mr. Polite is an example of the spiritual abuse that the black brethren face from the movement. Polite has gone completely off the deep end of his faith by embracing the ancestral mysticism of BLM. It has made a shipwreck of his faith.
"Sandrew King Jr. hosted a Zoom meeting that was live-streamed on Facebook.
The eight —seven black, and one hispanic—participants in the meeting were Seventh-day Adventist proponents of racial social justice.
The meeting opened with the two sisters complaining that church members say they should leave politics out of their life. They objected to that suggestion. What captivated our attention in this meeting were statements by Michael Polite that he had been called to rediscover the mystical spirituality of his [black] ancestors, thereby “tapping into the cosmic power” that resides within himself.
Mike polite “Our ancestors, when they came onto American shores, they were mystics. They were spiritualists. As we have disconnected ourselves from the mystic journey of transcendence, we have robbed ourselves of the great truth of the universe which is interconnectedness (oneism). It is the mysticism of our religion that we have lost..
I have personally been called back to visit the spirituality of my ancestors, recognizing that my ancestors are of the lineage of Abraham. We have separated ourselves from the mysterious spirituality of Yeshua. As we connect with that spiritualist root – that many were taught to demonize -- our slave masters taught us to demonize our spiritualism.
What am I missing? I had to revisit the spiritualism of our ancestors. One thing that the medicine man of the Congo understood was that you cannot defeat darkness without until you defeat darkness within.
What the medicine man was telling us is that you cannot have authority over things outside of you, until you master what is underneath you skin. This is a spiritual principle that all of our [black] ancestors understood. [Apostle] Paul had the secrets of the African mystics, a lot of people don’t recognize that.
Where do you think Apollos came from? Alexandria. These brothers aren’t just talking about Western Christianity—which has been drained of its spiritualism roots. No, Paul understood spiritualism, that’s why he said “I pour out myself. Like a libation” [a drink poured out as an offering to a deity.] Where did he get that from? Where did this whole idea of libations come from? That brother studied in Arabia for three years. Arabia back then was where my ancestors lived. Paul went to study with my ancestors, the spiritual mystics of his day, and that’s where he found transcendence and that where he came back talking about “the same power that raised Jesus from the dead, lives inside of me.”
Why is it during Jesus first sermon in Mark 1, they say this man teaches with authority. Where did He get this authority? Because the transcendent mystic Yeshua tapped into some type of
knowledge to where he was not just preaching about insight but He was preaching about His own internal universe.
You see, the liberator Harriet Tubman prayed for her master’s death—and it happened. That is what we call manifestation. Harriet Tubman prayed to the God of Abraham for this manifestation. So yahweh honors the mystic journey, just as much as you think some other entity does. Some say this is paganism. But who taught you that these things were pagan? I’ve had to go on my own personal journey to unlearn some of these things.
The very things I have been told, are trying to keep me from things that will liberate me and allow me to tap into the cosmic power that resides within me. And then use that power for the healing of the nations. Could it be that my slave masters knew there was more in me than I thought?"
Some of this stuff is right out of Patrisse Cullors’ Black Lives Matter, friends. The remainder is a mixture of raw spiritualism and pantheism.
In 2014 Michael Polite was chosen to be Andrews University’s associate chaplain. He is currently listed as Youth Director of the South-Central Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. He also writes for Message SDA youth magazine. He has been promoted to positions of influence in the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds.
