Jesus Christ protect our Native American brothers and sisters throughout the world. He will keep you strong and deliver you from your enemies. Too bad nothings changed in 500 years living under the white man’s oppression. In fact tribulation has started not only for the Indigenous, but for the invaders as well. Welcome to the nwo!
