Ras-Nate, don't be afraid my brother Selassie I did say this but so did Jesus..I'll show you
Selassie I words-
I have heard of that idea. I also met certain Rastafarians. I told them clearly that I am a man, that I am mortal, and that I will be replaced by the oncoming generation, and that they should never make a mistake in assuming or pretending that a human being is emanated from a deity."
Jesus words-
John 14:11-12
Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves.
Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.
Here is the comparison, Jesus declares his mortality, he will leave and go to the Father, which is true because he died and left this earthly plain. He also declares that those who believe in HIM will do the works also and even greater, just like Selassie, who said he will be replaced by the oncoming generation. InI, we are the oncoming generation that will do greater works.
Lastly, ones and ones can also notice that Selassie and Jesus were both speaking to their disciples on this matter..what a joy king
Now to be extra clear, Selassie I is alive, rules and reigns, he is the "Prevailing Lion of Judah", which is a continuing action verb, he is forever prevailing. I agree with the I, he is the visible and invisible Jah.
I think the word death, has more than one meaning, for in the Christian faith, death means no salvation for salvation is Eternal/forever life which is the PROMISE.
Selassie I proclaims this in the Oriana interview,below
Fallaci: On the whole, your Majesty, yours has not been a very a happy life. Those you loved have all died: your wife, two daughters. You have lost many of your illusions and many of your dreams. But you must, I imagine, have accumulated great wisdom, and of this I ask: How does Haile Selassie view death?
Selassie: What? View What?
Fallaci: Death your Majesty.
Selassie: Death, Death? Who is this woman? Where does she come from? What does she want? Enough, go away, ca suffit! Ca suffit!!
Yes I, Jah nah dead, blasphemy that but their is a mystery that hasn't been fully revealed yet, THAT IS IN THE SCRIPTURES, that Im waiting for Jah to show I and all Rastafari.
Haile Selassie I love
This temporal life on earth isn't forever, we are limited to this celestial body by time but can be forever terrestrial, if the I can overstand.
1 Cor 15:40
There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.
Bless up Ark 1, give thanks for the clarity king, Haile I
