Self-proclaimed ‘rabbi’ Ralph Messer recently told a large African-American congregation at Bishop Eddie Long’s New Birth Missionary Baptist church in Atlanta, Georgia, they are under a Voodoo Obeah Juju curse.
According to Messer, the African-American curse is three-fold: financial instability and poverty; sexual immorality and a curse that let’s them forget their roots.

Messer then offers to help the congregation break the curse by repeating after him, that they “denounce,” “refuse,” and rebuke” the curse, in the three areas.
“I speak death to that curse,” Messer tells the congregation in relation to the financial instability and poverty curse. “I am a king, I am an ambassador and now I claim this day … a release of finances.”
Regarding the sexual immorality curse, Messer again asks the congregrants to repeat after him and “stand against sexual immorality, renounce it from my bloodline and give us power to break the curse of sexual immorality.”
In relation to the third curse, Messer has the congregation repeat, “I am released, I now see my roots and they are Hebrews.. I receive my government,” and curiously have them renounce the accusations against Bishop Long. Â Long was recently accused of sexual misconduct by five young men and though he initially refuted the charges, ended up settling with them.
“I renounce verbal accusations against my Bishop…” Messer declared. “I repent for that filth. I stand for that government of New Birth and Bishop Eddie Long…”
Shortly after this exhortation to African-Americans, Messer set off a firestorm by crowning Long king and wrapping him in a Jewish Torah Scroll.
Pastor Keith Johnson, of the Biblical Foundations Academy and former Chaplain of the Minnesota Vikings, has called on all African-American pastors to “ban together and demand that Ralph Messer apologize to the African-American community,” just as Messer has done to the Jewish and Messianic communities.
Johnson said it is appropriate for Messer to apologize “in honor of Black History month” and for the “sake of the sheep that are being harassed.”
He summed up Messer’s teachings this way, “This dangerous and unbiblical teaching must end immediately!”
