So a man grow his hair and say he is rasta, and because you can't see Jah in his works you say he is false.
But the truth of it is that everyman is rasta, and when you look with eyes of faith you will see it. You can only see it when you look with eyes of faith, because your physical eyes are partial, only seeing a part of the whole story.
So when you judge these people as false rasta all I can know from that is that you are forgetting to look at these people with eyes of faith and you are trying to judge things with your mind.
It's too bad, because we need unity and we need to have an end to this divisive thinking among mankind. What we are seeking is the faith to look at every man and see our spiritual brothers - then our judgement will be true. But as soon as you start looking at a person's actions and trying to analyse their character based on their actions you are making a mistake. That is a dead end road. When we remember to believe in Christ, then we will only see our brethren everywhere and we will not need to talk about false rasta and evil people. As Paul said, we need to be founded in faith. That means faith in christ. And faith in christ means that we look at our fellowmen with eyes of faith, looking to see christ in them and them in christ and not looking at them trying to judge their character.
Someone asked Jesus what they should do in order to do good works, and Jesus answered, "You have to believe." That's all, just believe in christ. And christ is in every man, and every man is in christ. So we need to get rid of this judging attitude that we have learned.
There is no such thing as a false rasta, and there is nothing that one man can do to deceive another. Everyman is a true rasta, and everyman follows his own mind, Jah guidance.
I know we have been taught otherwise, but what we have been taught is just not true.
