Greetings loved Ones. Blessed! This is a lively thread with many vital facts. Itinually giving thanks for the wise heights the Idren share!
Looking into some things I&I have said:
In Matthew 1:11 (I think) one find a Jeconias as Yshua anscestor den when one search Jeremiah 22:30 (I think) one find Jeconiah and his descendants (including Yshua) cut off from sittin on da trone a David.
Give thanks Iyah, this is a contradiction easily missed! Not only was Josiah the father of Jehoiakim, who was the father of Jehoiachin (Matthew skips a generation), but also as Iman pointed out, Jehoiachin and his descendents (including all of them from Matthew 1:12-16) cut off from David throne, and from the prophesy in the beginning of Jeremiah 23. Give thanks for pointing this out!
Give thanks 1forTruth for the words of HIM.
GA I&I said "Selassie I religion teaches Selasssie I is NOT the almighty."
"the christian religion in FULL TRUTH if accepted teaches that Selassie I is the Almighty but many are blinded."
Yes I, not the Christian religion-schism, but the divine teachings concealed within it. As I&I study HIM words, so should I&I study the words ascribed to Jesus.
Whether the biblical gospels are made up or not, the teachings described are in line with the teachings of His Majesty. Echad.
As for this Virgin business, let I&I remember that the Iriginal meaning of the Hebrew words ('almah, bethuwlah) are female forms from the male words for youth or young man, and easily can be argued to mean a young wombman, not necessarily a wombman who has never had sex - in Judges ch. 19 I&I see a wombman who has "played the whore against her husband," being referred to as a bethuwlah. Obviously not a virgin in the modern context of that word. Then in Proverbs 30:19, the mention of "the ways of a man with an 'almah." If the man is having ways with her, she is not a virgin is she? Not in the modern context.
The interpretation of the two words are later UNDERstood to mean a wombman who has not had sex (and the KJV uses the English words virgin and maiden interchangeably at its own convenience), and maybe this is where the accounts of Mary saying, "But I have never known a man," come from - the author only understood the word (parthenos in Greek) to mean a wombman who has never had sex. But "author Matthew" was not present when the Ingel came to Mary, so how does he know if she said, "But I have never known a man"? What, Mary took Matthew aside as he was writing, and she told him "then the Ingel said this, and Iwombman said that"?
The prophesy in Isaiah ch. 7, saying that an 'almah will conceive and bear a child, and he will be called Immanuel, is fulfilled in the gospels either way - Mary was a young wombman. But Iwombman humbly submit to the Iyahs that the gospels push this "never known a man" business out of ignorance of the true meaning of that word.
Yes I, "The Bible contains much Wisdom but that doesn't mean we should not question its origins or debate its meaning." Give thanks Itinually for the Ibility to ponder these matters and find Truth. Some things may be metaphors that I&I need to glean the message from, but not claim to be literally true.
And with the Ham curse, really such foolishness! Let I&I study these scriptures thoroughly to sIght that JAH has NOT cursed the black people through Ham the son of Noah.
Genesis ch. 9
So this man, Noah, is probably an alcoholic (man of the vineyard, shown in this story being completely drunk - I&I can make a guess that he was drunk more than just this once if he grows a vineyard), and he gets mad because one of his sons makes fun of him. So he curses the son of Ham, Canaan, to work for his uncles.
Now, why would a drunkard have the authority to make a curse that the Almighty One will honor? And even so, the curse never mentions every succeeding generation, just Canaan.
Going into Genesis ch. 10:
As for Canaan, he has children who settle in basically the whole eastern Mediterranean coastline from Sidon to Gerar, and inland to the supposed location of Gomorrah.
Ham's brothers and their descendents have their own settling places also, but all within the Arabian peninsula.
There is absolutely no scriptural reference to Ham and his descendents being dark skinned, and no references of Shem and Japheth being light skinned. And no references to the three of them being split off geographically and becoming the fathers of the separate black, white, and yellow peoples.
Any teachings of these lies about the curse of Ham are not scriptural at all, according to Iwombman study.
As for the title of this thread, ONE love, ONE heart - Echad, I&I, HIM and Immanuel.
Blessed love Kings and Empresses, all peace and joy with I&I Itinually.
