Burn JC and Burn bible

Time Zone: EST (New York, Toronto)

Messenger: Nesta1 Sent: 3/12/2019 8:53:45 AM

"Because of [my] personal experience in the goodness of the Bible, I was resolved that all my countrymen should also share its great blessing and that by reading the Bible they should find truth for themselves. Therefore, I caused a new translation to be made from our ancient language into the language which the old and the young understood and spoke. Today man sees all his hopes and aspirations crumbling before him. He is perplexed and knows not whither he is drifting. But he must realise that the Bible is his refuge, and the rallying point for all humanity. In it man will find the solution of his present difficulties and guidance for his future action, and unless he accepts with clear conscience the Bible and its great Message, he cannot hope for salvation. For my part I glory in the Bible." --Emperor Haile Selassie I

Messenger: GARVEYS AFRICASent: 3/11/2019 6:53:08 PM Nesta you must have torrets or some kind of learning disorder. Are you mentally challenged? Every which post you feel compelled to tell I His Majesty was Christian .. Yes We know  In 1930 For reasons of uniting his country Its no longer 1930 and Ethiopia no longer needs uniting

Messenger: GARVEYS AFRICASent: Today 12:31:25 PM  I say the bible isn't for black people in 2019 as many of the I Dem (black people) agree. This is not for YOU to judge or comment on. And even if it is there are many parts which most Rastafari (including HIM)will burn out.  .... Haile Selassie burning parts of the Bible: Example 1: Bible say love your slavemaster His Majesty say away with oppression colonialism and slavery Example 2: Jesus say turn the other cheek His Majesty say defend Ethiopia and Africa with Gun and Guerilla war if necessary Must I go on? Clearly the man could differentiate wrong from wrong and right from right ina the Bible and didn't follow blindly or stupidly. Clearly the man had discern and intuition. And a man professing the Bible in the 1930s or 1950s is different to InI black people doing so in 2019 after we are far more learned about the origins of the Bible and it's effects on people and our OWN STORY OUTSIDE OF JUDEOCHRISTIANDOM. Even more so than His Majesty would have been when he was taught Christianity from a foreign Priest 100 years ago. And it's already been mentioned that Haile Selassie may have had other reasons for proclaiming the Bible such as to unite Ethiopia away from tribalism into one religious banner; rather than himself ACTUALLY being in love with the Damn book. We shall never know. Not that I expect Nesta to take any of this in as it doesn't fit with the Agenda I should find old posts where Nesta admits to himself burning out parts of the Bible and not accepting it in its entirety. Or I rather quote Levite "Guweh widd yuh argument and debate..."

Really G.A.? Come on now... You say: "Haile Selassie burning parts of the Bible: Example 1: Bible say love your slavemaster His Majesty say away with oppression colonialism and slavery Example 2: Jesus say turn the other cheek His Majesty say defend Ethiopia and Africa with Gun and Guerilla war if necessary" The Bible says a lot about slavery, it also l say away with oppression colonialism and slavery. Haile Selassie also did turn the other cheek, man only has two cheeks though! When Italy first attacked Ethiopia, H.I.M. took it to the League of Nations for judgement, He did not attack right back, He turned the other cheek. Man only has two cheeks. When Italy struck the other cheek, then His Majesty fought back. "And it's already been mentioned that Haile Selassie may have had other reasons for proclaiming the Bible such as to unite Ethiopia away from tribalism into one religious banner; rather than himself ACTUALLY being in love with the Damn book. We shall never know." Haile Selassie spoke of His love for the Bible many many many times, so InI do know He loved the Holy book (He called it HOLY) Blessed

Now G.A says H.I.M burn the bible! Wat a joke. Watch out next he se H.I.M burn JC. What a folly. On different books, let alone different pages! No 1 can take Jah bible from RasTafari, just like no 1 can take out the Black Supremacy, or the Jesus son of Mary. Selassie I is for all people, Light of This World.

Sister Empress: If you look down at the bottom of the text section while making a new reply, it will have this box showing how to post a link, image, and video. Looks like this: HTML Link ** link=www.jah-rastafari.com**Jah RasTafarI Homepage ** Image ++ img=www.jah-rastafari.com/images/Ithiopian-flag.gif ++ YouTube video ++ youtube=//www.youtube.com/embed/7d7ywghJ1Vg ++ So with the youtube video, just follow the example. You will manually type in exactly this (with no spaces) ++ youtube = // www.youtube.com /embed/ After that last forward slash (/) at the end of 'embed' you will copy and past the specific tag of the video you wish to post. All youtube videos have one at the end of the url.. In the example given in the box underneath the txt section, the specific youtube video tag is (7d7ywghJ1Vg).. You copy and paste the specific code of your video after the 'embed/' and put ++ at the end of it.. Make sure there are no spaces in the code I hope this helps.
