Trinity and views on Haile Selassie
Nyabinghi-Haile Selassie is the one and only supreme god, he is the full trinity
Boboshanti-has a trinity of prophet,priest and King,Marcus Garvey,Emmanuel Charles Edwards and Haile Selassie
Twelve tribes-the personality of jesus christ has been revealed in Haile. Selassie,follows christian trinity,jesus is still to come in flesh
Flag
Nyabinghi-Green on top,red at the bottom which represents good over evil(green over red)
Boboshanti-Red on top,green at the bottom,(no blood under grass)represents the order of a rainbow as Haile Selassie sits on a rainbow circle throne as in Revelations.bobo flag has R symbol which represents Righteousness,black five point stars, and a lion symbol which represents the lion of judah.under the green there 4 more horizontal strips blue,then purple,then black,then white.
(Welve tribes-not sure of the Ifficial order,I have seen both,but I have seen red on top in more circumstances
Diet
Nyabinghi-Ital some avoid eating from the vine
Boboshanti-Ital avoiding mangoes,sugarcane,and food from the vine
Twelve tribes-Ital but not sure tbh
Issembly
Nyabinghi-priests administer around the centre altar,males must have their hair uncovered,women must have theirs covered,many male drummers,women with shakers,psalms read,nyabinghi chants,bible read,fire key lit
Boboshanti-7 priests hold service on a rectangular altar,Males on one side of the room and women on the other side,5 drummers,psalms read,nyabinghi chants,bible read,faces ethiopia
Twelve tribes-sometimes in church,sometimes in a binghi styled setting,adopts main christian values and ideas
Garments
Nyabinghi-nothing degrading,green over red,women wear long dresses and not trousers
Boboshanti-Turbans for the men,Falls for the women,nothing white over black,red over green,very strict bobos wear a specific colour everyday according to the flag,Red on sunday,yellow on monday,green on tuesday,blue on wednesday,purple on thursday,black on friday,white on saturday sabbath.women wear long dresses and no trousers
Twelve tribes-Im not sure if there is any ifficial guidlines for this house,but I would guess it would be nothing degrading
Sabbath
Nyabinghi-has sabbath on friday/saturday and I have heard some Binghi keep the ethiopian sabbath which is on tuesday/wednesday
Boboshanti- strictly keeps the sabbath friday/saturday and there something they do either on monday or wednesday, I can't remember what its called
Twelve tribes- no ifficial sabbath, its more of a personal preference
Ganja
Nyabinghi-smokes in issembly,in gates,amongst bredren
Boboshanti-in private
Twelve tribes- when the person wants to, maybe not in service
That's some of the main differences,apologies if some of the twelve tribes answers are a bit vague,maybe another Idren could confirm or correct what I've said
