Blessings,
I was watching some footage and Rita Marley was talking about the time that she saw Selassie I and she said in her mind that if she could only see his hands .. you know to see the nail prints then she would know that he was the living God in the flesh.. not in those words exactly.. but close enough... so I want to know if I overstood the statement correctly?

Yes they believe that he is the black Jesus as his title of the Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah.Because the Arc of the Covenant is also said to be in Ethiopia and Bob Marley Believed that Selassie I is Jesus it caused a Cultic following.Selassie is However a Mortal man i believe that he triumphed for Ethiopia no matter what people say and is the last black

Bible is the ideal answer for that query, bear in suggestions people who've eyes will see and people who've ears will pay attention. what remains been hidden to the clever and prudent will only consistently be revealed by utilising to the babes and sucklings. Christ mentioned it long term in the past that little ones of the depraved people prefer miracle which will they never ever see, all people who consistently ask Haile Selassie approximately what people say approximately HIM have not got faith in HIM, so why could desire to He tell them it relatively is HIM God and King of introduction, nonetheless they weren't gonna have faith, they have been going to call for for miracle. is basically Haile Selassie I and Rastafarians who comprehend their relationship to a minimum of one yet another!!!

They do not believe that he is the same person that died on the cross. They believe in him and his teachings. So instead of praising God they are loyal to Emperor Haile Selassie.

Some believe that he's God, others don't.
