Israelite Church of God and Jesus Christ Inc.

I was wondering if anyone knew more about this group, both locally and nationally,etc. I often drive down Classen Blvd. and notice near 29th or 30th street in the strip mall on the west side of the street (next to ZAX, and the Bohemian Spirit store) this church in a small storefront space. They often have African American's dressed in unusal attire, etc.

I searched the web and this was the closest thing I could find. It makes a little sense with the African American decent, but just curious if anyone knew more about this group.

So, is it only black people in America that are the REAL hebrews? There are a lot of people around the world that are going to feel quite left out. And a lot of hebrews who only thought they were hebrews are going to be quite surprised.

Oh, sorry, I did not read the disclaimer at the bottom about them being in other countries as well. That's gotta be old as crap, there's no way it's from now. I mean, it's been at least a year since all the slaves were freed right?

Ballet...... and there are black ballerinas.

Beethoven never wrote a ballet.

Was there ballet in his one opera? No idea -- I've never seen it. I'd assume so because that was en vogue at the time, but I can say with some certainty, Beethoven never wrote a ballet.
