For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. Look: I, Paul, say to you that if you accept circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you. I testify again to every man who accepts circumcision that he is obligated to keep the whole law. You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace . . .

Ark I said:
"chica and SOE,

Why are you Christian? Why aren't you a Jew like Yeshua Christ. If being a Jew was Good for Christ, why is it not good for you? Christ never told people to stop being a Jew, His Teachings are Israelite Teachings. And even if a person doesn't have Jewish ancestry, Israel had laws in place for converting people to Judaism."

I am not a Jew because the Jews did not accept Jesus Christ as Messiah. Another way to put it: The Jews who did accept Jesus Christ as Messiah were labeled "Christians," meaning followers of Christ.

I asked the I them the question so that the I them would Iverstand why even though Haile Selassie I is a Christian,  I and I have separated I and I selves from Christians for various reasons, and I and I call I and I selves after the name of The Almighty God Jah RasTafarI Haile Selassie I.

Culture sings a song where he says Jah alone a Christian, I and I view Haile Selasie I in the Highest way.  The I them would defend the name Jesus Christ and be offended by people Speaking of Christ as lower than He is.  I and I defend Haile Selassie I. Selassie I is everything to I and I.  I and I also defend Yeshua Christ, but we speak more about Haile Selassie I, because Haile Selassie I is the Source of I and I, RasTafarI is who I and I are.

Here are some Words from I and I Leader


With the birth of the Son of God, an unprecedented, an unrepeatable, and a long-anticipated phenomenon occurred. He was born in a stable instead of a palace, in a manger instead of a crib. The hearts of the Wise men were struck by fear and wonder due to His Majestic Humbleness. The kings prostrated themselves before Him and worshipped Him. 'Peace be to those who have good will. This became the first message.

When He sacrificed himself at Golgotha for the atonement of our sin, He prayed with His last breath for the forgiveness of those who had tortured Him saying, 'Father, forgive them for they know not what they do'. Shame on those of us who are Christians and do not follow the way of the Savior of the World, whose life was filled with kindness, humility, and martyrdom! If we lived by the laws he gave us and were worthy of being called Christian, peace would have reigned on this earth.

Men were supposed to be the equals of the living angels who unceasingly sang praises before the eternal God. Had this been so, peoples of the world would not have been divided along lines of enmity.

InI is not a "Christian"like the I speaks of. It is an insult so to speak to Yeshua to practice Judaism. And why would the I separate? If Yeshua is Selassie I then why does the I refer to them as two different people?

InI pose the same question back. Why does the I practice RastafarI and not Christianity? Is Christianity not good enough for the I if it was good enough for the I?


"When He sacrificed himself at Golgotha for the atonement of "our" sin"

Just a question and no disrespects to anyone. Why does Selassie I say "our sin". Does that mean he has sinned before?

Love to the I

I and I don't practice RasTafarI, I and I are RasTafarI.

God has come in a new name, and I and I call I and I selves by the new name.

I refer to RasTafarI and Yeshua as two different names to avoid confusion. So when I talk about the things done by God in the time of Yeshua, I say Yeshua, when I speak of the things done by God in the time of Selassie I, I say Selassie I.


---------------------------------
RasTafarI is One with Jah, the One who overcometh and is granted to sit with Christ in his throne, even as Christ also overcame, and is set down with I and I Father in his throne (Revelation 3:21).

Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.


In Revelation it say

Revelation 5:5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

RasTafarI is the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the one who opened the book, and loosed the Seals. By loosing the Seals, the process of Revelation begun and the Revelations of the Seals can be seen in front of our eyes and will continue until Babylon is finished.

Also:

Revelation 19
11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

RasTafarI is the King of Kings, and Lord of Lords.

Haile Selassie I was born with the name TafarI, it means "one to be feared". He was given the name Haile Selassie (Might of the Trinity) when baptized in the Orthodox church. Others didn't know of this New Name until he was Coronated as Emperor in 1930. At is Coronation, he was given the titles King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah.

The name Haile Selassie is the same as "the Word of God" (Rev 19:13 - And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God). Because the Word of God, or the Spirit, is the Might of the Trinity, because all was created by the Word.

Out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations. Haile Selassie I spoke truth and rights to the nations. He spoke good of the righteousness that the nations did, and he spoke against the wickedness of the nations of the world. This is the sword that he uses against evil.

So it is because of the works that Haile Selassie I did, the example he set, and the words he spoke to I and I that cause I to say He is the One spoken of in prophesy. Not just the titles He was given, but the role He played in this time, to loose the seals and bring forth the judgement with his two-edged sword.

I see Eashua Christ as One with God, Haile Selassie I as One with God, and all that live by the example of God as One with God. So when I say One, I am not saying that Eashua Christ or Selassie I are higher than Jah. I am saying that they are One, with no separation. One has no division. So they can't be seen as three heads of a council, standing beside eachother, because that is not One. To be One with Jah, a man must go to Jah, and join with Jah. They must live by the direction of Jah, through the Spirit of Jah.

Jesus Christ told us in great detail that he wanted us to be One as he is One. (John 14 and 15). He also asked Jah to make us One, "That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us". This is just one of the quotes from John 17, where he asks Jah to make us One.

RasTafarI is One, and if I and I follow his example, I and I will be One. His example is the same example as Christ, the same example as Jah.

I main focus is to learn from the ways of His Majesty Haile Selassie I, and come closer to Jah, to be One. And to fulfill I duty to the Most High, in the way that he calls on I to do. I also learn from others in history and Ones around I, who are interested in reasoning, Iron sharpens Iron. I Respect and Love all the people of all nations and all religions. I see all religions in their just and honest form as the path to Jah.

RasTafarI is a way of life, not an organization. So a man can't be a member of RasTafarI, he must live RasTafarI. Some people call theirselves Rasta, but deal with racism and disrespect to other religions, and other sorts of wickedness. I don't see those as RasTafarI, because that is not the way that RasTafarI spoke. True RasTafarI live by the example and teachings of RasTafarI.

Greetings, Ark I.

I am beginning to wonder if this isn't just a case of semantics. If Jesus Christ and HIM are one in the same, then does it matter whether I says Jeshua or if I says HIM? We're still speaking of the same person, yes?
