@RYG:Haile Selassie, the British slave, was the most religiously extremist man on the planet and the man who committed the most crimes against his own people and neighboring countries. History will not forgive him.

@Actual_Human_Take Says:
This is the most White Guy Cuck video imaginable
To think Jesus Christ would come back to life and
Adorn himself in military garb and medals is the ULTIMATE IN LIBERAL DELUSION
I'm sure this has nothing to do with the IQ levels of the people in that part of the world

Until the philosophy which hold one race superior snd another inferior
Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned
Everywhere is war.
The words of Haile Selassie to the UN, of which he was a founding member. Recited by Bob Marley in his song "War".

@EddieBravo416go Says:
Just to summarize and confirm, Haile Selassie snaked the emperor and following empress, enforced the religion of the colonials, abandoned his country when Italy came, was given rule over Ethiopia again from Winston Churchill, than he tried to cover up the famine that killed 200,000 of his people by throwing extravagant dinners for the elites, was overthrown by his own people, buried under the toilet of the following ruler being pooped on constantly, than Jamaicans who only met him once call him God and worship him until today?
@Knowimtombot Says:
Apparently nipsey was related to this guy
@YESHUA_is_king_21 Says:
II Timothy 4:1-5 I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.
@YESHUA_is_king_21 Says:
Yeshua Hamashiach is the lion of Judah. How is a Ethiopian the lion of Judah is what i dont get.
@YESHUA_is_king_21 Says:
Yeshua Hamashiach is our Lord and savior and redeemer. He is the King of kings and Lord of lords. He is the first and the last besides Him there is no God. Besides Him there is no savior.

@michaelmcfate1156 Says:
Maybe it’s because he’s British he says “white men”. But it was Britain that imposed their rule over Ethiopia. Just like they did over other white countries. So please don’t include innocent men in what Britain did.
@AmerIndianWarrior Says:
Haile Selassie was just a man. Marcus Garvey never made that quote nor was it declared in 1960 as he already died in 1940.

@mensreus Says:
IN answering the Western media, whether he was the Christ returned, He said:
" I met with the Rastafarians. I told them clearly I am a man, I am mortal and I will be replaced by the oncoming generation. And they should never make the mistake in assuming of pretending that the Human being is emanated from the deity"
HE never told RASTAS that though, He crowned us with Golden medallions in JAMAICA in 1966 - go watch the video
You want to know why??
The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to RASTAS, but to others I speak in parables, so that, “’though seeing, they may not see; though hearing, they may not understand.’ LUKE 8:10
He speaks in parables just like in his first coming.... Let RASTA translate the parable
Christ was a man, he was mortal and replaced by the following generation, And he is not emanated from the Deity, the deity emanates from him
Man is just a vessel ...God or the Devil could emanate from him
HAILE SELASSIE I is the vessel of GOD ..the power of the trinity emanates from him .., THE HOLY SPIRIT itself. He bring light to this world....
from ADAM and Eve to your granny was using flambo and candle .... but we have light bulb today
so i praise Haile Selassie for everything , including the light bulb
@Clifford777 Says:
It saddens my heart to learn that some Rastafarians consider this man to be JAH in the flesh. Because I love a lot of Rastafarian worship music. But wow am I sad to learn many Rastafarians are deceived believing this man is JAH in the flesh? JAH in the flesh is Jesus Christ. JAH Eternal Son is Jesus Christ. Please repent of these wicked teachings, and turn to The Holy Bible only for the Truth of JAH Almighty. Psalm 68:4 Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him. Any Rastafarians here, do not worship this man. This man was not Jesus Christ. This man said he was not God, and that he worships Jesus Christ. He is a false messiah and I pray Rastafarians are not deceived and put their faith into the Word of God and believe in Jesus Christ the Messiah. God Bless you all!
