Todays world is one where I do not wish to last long. Im new to the site and knowing that somebody at least aknowledged topics of great interest covered in poisoning mist by Babylon makes me feel like someone cares. While the rest of mankind talk on cellphones and ish, people like me is stuck wonderin WHAT THE F%$@. Hip hop, moralality, trust in mankind are all decaying to the point of no return. It is easier to find a ho and hard to find a wife. Somebody reason with the rapper who feels whats the point, holla.

Trod to RasTafarI and the I will no longer be a product of your environment, but the I will instead be a product of RasTafarI Haile Selassie I.

No matter how much people wish the present season to finish, it will continue until it is done.

The point is this.

--------------------------------------------------
The problems of people are caused by people. They always want to blame God, the devil, or anything other then themself.

People are murdered because other people murder them. People are dying from cancer because people poison the earth, water and air. People have no salvation in Jah because they have rejected Jah.

-----------------------------------------
Luke 13
1 There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
2 And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things?
3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
4 Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem?
5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
-----------------------------------------

Repent isn't about asking forgiveness, it means to turn away from wickedness. So Christ was showing I and I that even if we are not the worse sinners, as long as we are sinners and separate from Jah, these things can happen to us. And the reason for this is that if we reject Jah, then Jah will let us be our own defence, because we have rejected Jah defence.

Haile Selassie I explains this further,

----------------------------------
However wise or however mighty a person may be, he is like a ship without a rudder if he is without God. A rudderless ship is at the mercy of the waves and the wind, drifts wherever they take it and if there arises a whirlwind it is smashed against the rocks and becomes as if it has never existed. It is our firm belief that a soul without Christ is bound to meet with no better fate.
----------------------------------

So if I and I repent and live for Jah and accept Jah guidance and direction, then Jah will be our Rudder. So just like a Rudder guides a ship through the sea, when I and I accept Jah, Jah will guide I and I through this world. So when the waves come, which is the bad things that happen in the world, I and I will not be moved. Jah will keep I and I steady and will take I and I out of the waves.

The Rudder in the Waves
--------------------------------------------------

@ Product of my environment

Revelation 18:4 (King James Version)

4And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

We know that the wages of sin is death according to the bible.

My brother this is the only way to avoid Babylonian society. You must come out of her and reject her. Those who stay in her too long will suffer from her plagues. And we all know the plagues, which include everything from drive by shootings to venerial diseases. All of which end up in death as the bible predicts.

My brother save yourself before Satan destroy you.

Getting out of Babylon is the Rastaman's aim. But it means stopping of complaints and starting hard work, educate yourself, save some funds or materials or whatever you can collect and build up Zion; Work is the best way to get out of Babylon.
