Rev. Bob Jones Sr. gave a radio address on Easter Sunday 1960 titled “Is Segregation Scriptural?” where he cited Acts of the Apostles: “From 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” (Acts 17:26). This was proof, said Jones Sr., “that God Almighty fixed the bounds of their habitation. That is as clear as anything that was ever said.”
