From Acts 17:26.....both KJV & NIV
And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; KJVFrom one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and He marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. NIV
In the below section one can see Democrat Senator Heflin abusing the Biblical text to claim God set boundaries by race.....but actually what the text is saying is that ALL men are of ONE BLOOD (one race) and the "boundaries" are between nation states over the span of history.....obviously for Prophetic fulfillment.....not racial lines.
Democrat Senator Heflin's response to Republican President Calvin Coolidge's call for moving towards equality for blacks under the Law during a campaign swing in 1924....
"Address on the issue of Race in Birmingham, Al.
(Coolidge) Calls for political equality and equal educational opportunity ...
Senator James Thomas Heflin of Alabama was quoted in the
Baltimore Sun saying “As far as the South is concerned, we hold to the doctrine that God Almighty has fixed the limits and boundary lines between the two races and no Republican living can improve upon His handiwork.”
This is what happens when a wicked POLITICIAN takes the Creation story Paul eludes to (all men of ONE BLOOD--Adam) out of Paul/s mouth and abuses the Text on purpose intentionally.
