RasTafarIWork: "But the truth is the truth no matter how simple or hard to bear, and it cannot change and cannot remove, no matter how forces oppose." I like that. The Truth Idureth forIver. You can find it anywhere geographically, in any culture, among any people at any time in history because it is the Truth and cannot change. Oral tradition, written communication, songs, artwork...many means of passing it along & communicating it. JAH reveals Truth in so many ways to His Idren.

Yes I, Nesta1; they say Time will save Truth from Falsehood and Envy. "it is well documented that Rastafari was birthed from brethren sighting the image of a Black sovereign King in a Jamaican newspaper and after never having imagined something like that was possible with the prophetic words of Garvey fresh in their minds, telling us to look for a redeemer in Africa and to stop seeing God through whiteman eyes; they immediately recognised him as THE sovereign savior of InI black people domicile on a former slave plantation island under British rule That is the origin of this trod. Not bible study. You are gravely mistaken if you think otherwise" lol GARVEYS AFRICA, really? So, there was no RasTafarI for I and I before that, right?

RasTafarIWork, It does seem odd (impossible?)to me to believe that JAH Almighty and prophecy do not play a role in the origins of RastafarI. i mean, we're all familiar with Marcus Garvey's role in the RasatafarI movement, but can that really be to the exclusion of any other? Maybe. So JAH revealed himself to no one as incarnate in H.I.M, prior to this episode with a Jamaican newspaper? Or is this just something we can't answer due to lacking documentation? i mean obviously JAH knew/knows His incarnations throughout All Time, right? And isn't the trod itself archetypal in many facets? I&i guess i've been so busy trodding for so long that these are things i've not really reflected upon a lot since, as Marley once put it “A Rastaman deal with life forever in this time."

Yes Rastafariwork my word above IS how Rastafari was birthed. As has been evident to the testimony of Jamaican Rastafari who were there from the onset. Yes. Completely. I'm sorry if this doesn't fit your religious concept of I trod Rastafari born from black redemptive thought and Ethiopianism after sighting HIM after the words of Garvey. Not by Bible study. That came secondary in an attempt to validate the above...And the BIBLE at the time was largely all we had

Bible worshippers come out of my thread. Life would be much simpler This space isnt for you

RasTafarI is an ancient rod, the name Jah RasTafaI being the New Name as told in the book of Revelation. Revelation 3:12 “Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.

The words Ras Tafari appear nowhere in the Bible. Anything else is belief. You will not change the history of I trod

Messenger: Nesta1 Sent: 1/26/2019 12:46:11 PM

RasTafarIWork. I&i know and understand that of which you speak. Also: "He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it." - Revelation 2:17 "And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth." -Revelation 14:3 "No time to be deceived.Oh, brothers, you should know and not believe"

You can quote until king James himself is resurrected. Nowhere in the Bible mentions the words "Haile Selassie" nor "Ras Tafari" What you are doing is interpreting Something done SECONDARY to I ancestors declaring His Majesty as the saviour for I people

Messenger: RasTafarIWork Sent: 1/26/2019 3:05:13 PM

What you are doing is interpreting ; declaring His Majesty as the saviour for I people.... Excactly!.... The bible say so!
