Bredren, He either is God Almoghty or not, there is no other kind of divinity. Only one knows if Selassie is in thier heart, but its matters not what they say or do, they must believe it when there is nothing to be said and nothing ti be done and no one around to do it with. If you strip me of everything and every person I carry day to day life with, I still hold His Majesty as God.
'Likewise there may be someone who has not even heard or knows about about Selassie I, but is very righteous in his works, and has a deep love of JAH in his heart."
Yes I, and I don't think otherwise, but if these people are calling them selves rastas is the question bredren. I grew up in a family that loveed Jah very much and never heard of Selassie. But they never pretended to be Rasta either or anything else but believers.
"Not everyone who shouts JAH RasTafari! is a real rasta because it is easy to just talk."
We know this bredren, nothing knew, wolves in sheeps clothing is an old story bredren, but its not for I to tell who believes in Selassie, but when one comes to this site hailing Selassie this and Rastafari that, but then begins to talk about how Selassie isn't God and some more of this and that, what is the reaction supposed to be. If Native Root secretly believes that Jesus and/or Selassie is God his outward apperance and talk do not exemplify such beliefs. I don't know why anybody would believe these things secretly and then come and argue. If he never said anything then I never would have judged his "rasta authenticity." But Native Root made himself a target by saying what he did about His Majesty, so know InI must call him out.
I do not walk around looking at bredren wondering to Iself if they are real or not. They must answer for themselves, but the same for them, if they don't come right they gone get left seen?
Only the I knows what they believe, not for I to judge, but it is for InI to judge words and actions, but not hearts.
"Or does it take a lifelong trod of selfless deeds and humble actions with stoic faith in the Almighty whose identity will sure enough present himself to us on that fateful day!"
Yes, it does. To confess that Selassie I Yeshewa I is to confess in your heart and to belive it in your inner I.
Blessed
