Rasta Interview in Shashamane

[nikesk8er10]

1 John 5:7

Trinity -3

[ethi0nz]

I love Rastafarians! Though I do not agree with their belief of Haile Selassie as a god, I do however love them for their appreciation and respect for Ethiopia and the Orthodox Church! These people are Ethiopia's long lost children! GOD bless them!!!

[amanfiss]

People, who cares what they believe? As far as I see it, Rasta is such a loving religion that doesn't judge anybody. I am Ethiopian and, I know that Ethiopias will always welcome Rasta.

[tanya8956]

THIS MAN IS NOT A RASTAFARIAN HE IS VERY VERY VERY CONFUSED.THIS IS WHY ETHIOPIANS HATE I AN I.WHY SAY I AM A RASTA MAN THEN TURN ROUND AND SAY I DONT BELEIVE IN THAT MAN.OPEN YOUR EYES YOUNG RASTAFARIANS GET RID OF THESE FAKE ASS PEOPLE OTHERWISE YOU WILL BE LED ASTRAY BY WEAK MINDS.

[brooklynsfinest94]

dat dere is a bajan rasta... big up

[Libertad72]

Why do you say "jah" ..there is not J in Hebrew! His name his YAHUWAH ...his son...YAHUWSHUA Ha'Mashiac the LION OF THE TRIBE OF YAHUWDAH! He will come to trod the nations in the winepress of his wrath. Turn from your ways and exalt not in the works of man who's words wither as dry grass. Turn to YAHUWSHUA so that you will turn to his KINGDOM for the Queen of Heaven commeth to make war with the Saints..I have been sent to fight her...YAH!

[CamerikCam]

dats a nice gyal hahaha

Jah Bless

[shewatabet]

Wow I tough he was my uncle from Dire Dawa by the way he wears his gabi. Betam des yemil sew nwe.Yemecheh abo!

[madman1071]

IF U NAH PRAISE SELASSIE I, U NOT A RASTA CA THATS WAT MEKS U A RASTA, DONT CONFUSE URSELF

[SpiritualZionMount]

This brother is for real in truth ! I agree with Him. We believe in the Father, the Son, & the Holy Spirit, one essence in three hypostasis, one Godhead, amen. Iyesus Kristos is our God, Teferi Mekonnen Qedamawi Haile Selassie is a saint.

[vojinvidanovic79]

So much burning and Jah above all.

No man is higher then God, but every Judeochristian branch has its own messiahs, representatives, spiritual guiders. So we choose H.I.M for wisdom and lineage, as well as Marcus Mosiah Garvey, Robert Nesta Marley. Every faith is both wrong and right in the way it teaches you to do right.

Shashamane at least is acknwledgment of Black Zionism, fulfillment of Garvey dreams with help of H.I.M. leading black diaspora home. That is for everyone to respect!

[mwatson89]

@vojinvidanovic79 that is nice interpretation

[cannoir]

I love his accent. he has a wiseman's soft tone. life must be super hard in Shashaméné .

[bmaniggyjunior]

selassie is christ reincarnation, big up rasta.

[purpleprenciss]

Nouf raspect to mi Caribbean African Ethiopian bredren. Tewahedo for life...

[KDubRollerblader]

its simple essentially Rastafari means (RAS)- head (Tafari)- creator. Rastafarian are followers of the head creator which is jah. to me, anyone who is a follower of god and his teachings is a rasta. The oath of the nazarine is the symbolic identification of righteousness of the rasta which are the dreadlocks of the rastaman.

[elzeder1]

@KDubRollerblader

Ras is the head or Prince, but Tafari is simply his ruler name, and dont mean creator.

It is some rastas who believe he is a reincarnation of god, the creator, Jahova Jahwe in the jewish texts or simply Jah

Guidance find the way within yourself

[Malcolmquartey]

Ras Lij Tafari Makonnen (Ras Tafari), Haile Selassie I's name, translates in to "the prince that must be feared", or "the prince that must be reveared" in Amharic, but Ras can also be translated in to head, and apparently Tafari can be translated in to creator in some Arab dialect. Mind you, Selassie was born and raised in Moslim region... So Head Creator might also be a legitimate translation of HIM name.

Misgana

[madman1071]

Africa for the Africans those at home and those abroad,SELASSIE I JAH RASTAFRI

[Yaqob13]

Our Father Haile Selassie has taught to fallow His Son. "Jesus" the Anointed (Christ)... Haile Selassie is Christ cause He was anointed and Christ means Anointed. Haile Selassie is the First Power of the Trinity. He is the FATHER. Not Jesus. To say He is Jesus reincarnated does not go according with the Holy Scriptures. If Jesus ascended into Heaven, and Revelations and Daniel say that "Jesus" is not born again when He returns. Haile Selassie is the Ancient of Days - Son of Man. Blessing

[Princetafari]

DEEP WELLS SAID MY BRADDAH

[AllTruth1]

@Yaqob13

You truly believe what you say?

[amixofeverything]

Yeah...ok. The Ethiopian Jews don't believe in Jesus...and they have a more valid claim than the rest of Ethiopians. And they've come home to Israel...along with our brothers across the sea from Ethiopia...the Jews of Yemen.

[ISSATinaHAILE]

This man needs a hotta fire!

This man is preaching Arius' doctrine, denying the divinity of His Majesty Haile Selassie I. This man here follows the teaching of so called "Prophet" Gad, who say Haile Selassie I is not Christ returned: so they can't call themselves Rasta, nor Gad neigher this man in Ethiopia.

Haile I is Christ returned, and He is the Head of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church , officially.

[EricaYE6]

Hello ISSA TinaHAILE! I just read your comment about "Haile Selassie was Christ returned". And I have to tell you that Selassie I was a false Messiah that Jesus HIMSELF warned us about. Jesus said, "Don't let anyone mislead you, because many will come in my name, claiming to be the Messiah. They will lead many astray." (Mark 13:5-6) Please turn from the false teaching and prophesying of Rastafarianism. It's of the Anti-Christ because it denounces Jesus as the true Messiah. God Bless!

[ISSATinaHAILE]

Dear EricaYE6,

when did Emperor Qadamawi Haile Selassie ever claim to be the returned Messiah?

I thing that you should study better His history and personal biography before tell everybody your own opinion.

If Revelation warned that the angels of the Lord will proclaim His glory among men, how could you ever understand Christ has come again, if you don't examine the many voices?

[EricaYE6]

Hello ISSA TinaHAILE!

I never said Selassie I ever said anything like that. People who say they're "Rastafarians" are saying that in their comments on these videos. And you yourself said in your comment below "This man here follows the teaching of so called "Prophet" Gad, who say Haile Selassie I is not Christ returned: so they can't call themselves Rasta.." If you're not "Rasta" I didn't mean to comment to you. Just those who are lost in false beliefs. Not my opinion, but God's Word.

[wariruri33]

I think you're following the actual aren't you?

Free Mason arranged the Word, it's theirs!

You talking about it, is simply sad

Warrerurre, Down Under

[ISSATinaHAILE]

Where in the world could you find the Davidic Royal Lineage thru which Christ will be acknowledged, if not in blood line of King Menelik II of Ethiopia, straight to Haile Selassie I, the last (Gen 49) davidic Emperor on earth?

[trinitylives2012]

the scripture you quoted from mark is definitely true the only thing missing is that Haile selassie never claimed to be jesus nor did he deny being christ

[Talk2kcab]

@EricaYE6

God has sent many messengers...Selassie is one of them, I think. What say you...not trying to start an argument, just civil dialogue, lol.

[zionlion7752]

Christ say the one whom the father will send will come in my name and remind u of all the things I said unto u...so Haile Selassie come as a Christian King and never himself profess to be the Messaih but did fulfill all the prophet's word concerning the return of the Savior

[AllTruth1]

@zionlion7752

So why are we, the Lost Sheep of Israel still not living in Zion?

[zionlion7752]

@AllTruth1

some Lost but found Sheep are living in Zion and more are going everyday...it is just not televised or broadcasted...

[AllTruth1]

@zionlion7752

I have studied history and believe that black people in the diaspora are of the Lost Tribes of Israel. When the Lion of Judah returns, all the Lost Tribes will dwell in the New Jerusalem. Shalom!

[DOUBLECHEESEBARGER]

we murdered his ass

[BINBBA]

what u r takin is all right, Jah Rastatari!!!

[ruckus37]

brainwash

[xcannabiscom]

This POV is very similar to my own. I closely identify with rasta, and I believe Jesus is the creator.

[scjason420]

EXACTLY why I want to move to Ethiopia.

Ethiopian Christianity is where I want to be.

[cloveklukas]

Good man IS this Rastaman, feel in Love! Thanks, lektor! Jah Rastafari told and is telling from orthodox Kristians and all real Rastafarians ..sorry for horlible english..

[Zeeceei]

I think the young woman interviewer does justice to the interviewee.

[kayaburning]

Excellent job indeed. Jah bless the Ethiopians!!!

[2aggee]

ALERT! RASTA MAN! ALERT! How can 1 worship and praise something/1 who 1. Used to seek refuge in his Lord? 2. Used to have sexual relations? 3. Dependant upon food & drink? 4. Who Urinated and Stooled? 5. Who Slept? 6. Who died? Ask yourself RASTA MAN do you apply the above to God or are they the attributes of man? Use UNNO BLASTED MIND! ]STOP smoke DAT BLASTED GANJA dat cloud up unno knotted-head! GWARN like UNO is Righteous!? Righteous me back-heal!

[G9PitBull]

He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;

Psalms 104:14

JAH RAS TAFARI

[maaruz1979]

ask your own self why you are obsessed with rastafari; coming on every rasta video...feel no way we accept even hateful little souls like you. selassie I the black messiah; rasta the truth-even a mocker & scorner can be redeemed

[hisboo911]

worshipping man is idolatry.

[tribalwon]

Jesus was a man!!!

[hisboo911]

really, what is your point?

[kayaburning]

Jesus is fuly man, and fully God, and the only way to the Father. Haile selassie is the Solomonic King and represents the family of Christ.He's also the Defender of the Orthodox Christian Faith. JahRastafari!!!

[kayaburning]

Jesus is God in the form of man, anyone who says otherwise is antichrist and a companion of Satan.

[MyNegr0]

y do u religious people think you're right... u all always just say some rehearsed mumbo jumbo

[haelprincessLeah]

bajan big up

[JAHrastalives]

For anyone with negitivity of this faith, i ask the father that he may grant you all the streangth to find, seek, and LIVE, by truth. Times are crucial so stand firm my brotheren. JAH Bless!

[maaruz1979]

lol...the heathen always trying to get us to renounce rastafari....rasta for life!!

[yuhatingnow]

what they need is Islam not Rasta B/c man is not God but Allah is :)

[daffyz17]

sounds like a Bajan big up to Barbados big up to Jamaica

[ramoiselle]

@daffyz17 bajan for sure the yute too :) bless up

[frankottome]

rasman08 u need 2 read more b4 u comment or u end up looking stupid, Selassie was a direct descendant of queen of Sheba and Solomon

read a book....

rastafari lives

[jrsone2]

Selassie is from the same lineage of KING DAVID AND SOLOMON and Jesus Christ therefore KING OF KINGS LORD OF LORDS LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH!

JAH RASTAFARI!!!

[NewJeru973]

idolatry.

[RasMon08]

selassie is not from the tribe of judah.

he's not even an isrealite...

he's a east indian...and he's dead.

[tikher]

lol RasMon08 where do you get your fake history from?

[ethiomami8187]

[motimuatit]

The first time, when i go back to ethio and start working things for my emama hagere, I will let those rasta people straightened out. Jee wiz people, enough already with faking your staff to reside in Ethiopia

[Kalydosos]

If your an Ethiopian go back no one is stopping you?

[juelzlene11]

i totally agree with what 2aggee is saying....rastafarians need to get a damn life for once.

[2paacalipse]

[RasTheodros]

I will come soon brother

[blazingshortie]

poor little boy look bord no ass..watch he face ......cha..dat ras could talk slow ehe...how much time he gonna say i am a asta man i come to Ethiopia...cha

[carsonh]

i would love for people to stop defining Rastafari as a religion....religion is the western attempt to categorise and structure spirituality. Rasta livity is a spiritual way of life. religion reserves days for giving ises to Jah but i and i live everyday with JAH on i mind. no special day of the week.

just i and i opinion

[2aggee]

[max1point8t]

MYSPACE/SDWBOI

[Kalydosos]

Very nice its good to see Africans in the diaspora going home to Africa to help. Not just Ethiopia but Africa generally.

[2aggee]

flyboy4582 yuh ah talk fooooolishness too! No prophet came to the people to tell them to mention MAN! So it does matter who you worship! So any man wid ah morsel ah sense should know this!!! So me have a right to constructively criticize him and any1 who follow rastafari!!! ME BUN OUT DE RASTA!!!

[flyboy4582]

rasta isnt a religion its a livity! it no matter if u pray selassie, jesus or allah what counts is that it makes u a better person!! this man is far from a fool!! those who criticise him should criticise themselves first!! one god one love one world!! bredda blenda for life!!

[2aggee]

You can see from this interview this man head nuh good! Him seem like smoddee brainwash him. How can a man worship another man(Haile Salassie)when he used to worship God. Man stop talking fooooolishness and come better than that! Better you eat flying fish and coco.

[wazoulou]

You said the same thing about Jesus not being HIM. remenber? Look at you now.

[FED2007]

1st of all you dumb ass rastafari is not a religtion. so start from there.

[Fwam95]

At 1:21 the child asks a simple question "Is this the last place you want to be?"...watch to see if this dude even answers her question!...blah,blah,blah!

And then the child asks the same question again at 2:59...yet this dude cannot answer a simple question. LMAO! Stop talking in circles and answer the lil' girls question!

[voice4orthodox]

Haile Selassie was not Rastafarian... he was an Orthodox Christian.

Also, Bob Marley, shortly before his departure from this earthly life, was baptized Orthodox Christian.

Glory to God for His One Holy Apostolic, Universal, Orthodox Church.

To watch a clip of the Ethiopian expression of Orthodox Christianity, copy and paste this in the YouTube search:

Ethiopian Orthoedox Tewahedo spiritual song by Yilma Hailu

[Lionzman]

Yes Haile Selassie was an Orthodox Christian and he openly stated on many occasions that he worshipped Jesus or Yeshua Ha Masshiach.

Rastafari claim Cannabis Sativa as sacrement Cannabis Sativa was brought to Jamaica by Sadhu's who are Indians therefore their religion is in fact Hinduism.

[carsonh]

if that is how yu arrive at we(rastas) are hindus..then u are foolish. HIM was an Ethiopian Orthodox Christian...as was Jesus a Jew, and claimed that man times.

[rujugauch]

those boys' voices and their somewhat prayer makes me relaxed. Jah Guide and Protect. RASTAFARI!

[MyDreams305]

his being one with god during that interview..Jah Love.

[KINGoftheuniverse]

Amen !

[Tigrigna]

[closetome]

Very nice. Well done!

[rasmillar]

[guracha200]

Africa for sure is for Africans, Ethiopia is the heart of mother land

[bwoyrough]

the man being interviewed sounds just like a DJ they used to have on DBC radio in london in the early 80's.

[Rofa7007]

No one should question the faith of others, for no human being can judge the ways of God

-Haile Selassie I-

-Ras Tafari-

[maaaxddd]

i love the children singing in the end theyre awesome

[durreyd]

RASTAFARI

[shelter992]

It makes more sense to seperate Selassie from Jesus because Selassie is real and historically the Jesus they teach you about is without evidence, and is based on mytholigy and faith. Linking Selassie to Jesus will make you as confused as the Christians. Remember Selassie is real. Selah.

[dredvybz]

jus thought of that ,but its been declared thousands years ago , no1 could provided evidence but only the bible, unlike HIM, hes got vidoes on youtube dot com

any different?

[carsonh]

he is a bajan ...bouik!!

[urbanhookupz]

Rasta on the same path as ISLAM.. THERE IS ONLY ONE "GOD" All RASTAfARI please research GODS PURE book. THE HOLY QURAN. ALL SCHOLARS AGREE. It has been preserved in its original form until the day of judgment. unlike the Bible Torah etc. THIS BROTHER IS LIVING THE LIFE WAYS OF A Muslim

SUBHANALLAH.(GOD BLESS)

I Challenge all to research the last preserved HOLY book, "AL QURAN KARIM!"

[maaaxddd]

its true the rastas who really practice the "livity" live as muslims, several prayer times a day, fasting, no eat pork, remain humble and simple, the girls cover their hair etc.

[Hazzarna]

Rasta people refuse to call themselves close to Islam because of what they've done to ethiopia. Ethiopia is the only African christian country that became a Christian country without colonism and it has been in a lot of war with Islam countries. Rasta people will never find themselves being in the same path as ISLAM!

[urbanhookupz]

yes you might say so my brother/sister but when you focus on the the purity of Islam and not the people or history...you will find his religious thoughts are similar to the prophets which we all share: ABRAHAM,MOSES,JESUS,ETC. which where sent to us from "ONE" god. just pointing out the fact that we are similar. And,

to State that the Quran is a pure book to keep those who believe on the right path...

[urbanhookupz]

this makes no since cuzz we all come from the same GOD, so we all on the same path...(ISA) Jesus will come again and set us all on the proper path ...At this time we will all be the same in faith...That is... if you last the destruction and are not fooled by the Dajjal aka the anti christ..

[jackass7769]

jesus was just created directly by high spirit, as many other people, HIM being one of them

[yahmonRyan]

Some Rasta believe different den oda Rasta but all Rasta believe 1 faith 1 love 1 peace 1 inity....Da world mus realize Rasta is da truth

[yahmonRyan]

as a Rasta InI tek much time fi read n study, Selassie is da conquering lion of judah, in da book of Matthew n read his genology, its says Josheph of David Jesus of Mary son of God. Selassie is of da line of david threw solomon n bathsheba...but da bible says da only way 2 da father his threw his son, so faith in Jesus is a must in order to reach Jah. Selassie is the royal incarnate of Jesus.

[maaaxddd]

yeah but ah who wrote di bible man??? ah jesus dat? no: dirty rome.

we betta trow'weh dem brainwash tools

[maaaxddd]

how God could begget a son?? he's Most High, him nah rape Mary: thats what the romans invented to force the people to obey them.

i neva believe God coulda have a son or an earthly incarnation, thats just not fitting to his Glory. God is One, no badda seek division in him.

thanks and praises

[CUTIE235]

TO RASWAYNE:ignore the post OK!?

[CUTIE235]

HEY WHO STOLE MY ACCOUNT!?!

[pusifut]

some of you folks need to also understand that just as they have many denominations in christianity and other faiths its the same with Rastafarianism. They actually have some Rastas who accept Jesus as the son of God. Its also not good to generalize but im certain you guys understand that but will still do it.

[CUTIE235]

Iam a Rastafarian who accept Jesus as the son of God ,so not all Rastas worship Selassie...much love pusifut ...natural mystic ca .

[RasWayne]

What are your veiws on H.I.M.?

[aceridgey]

i am 2, rasta, selassie is king not god. bless

[RasWayne]

Rasta stat as a movementn neva a re-lie-again! so a Rasta a Rasta zeen! Rasta fi Free, Justis, Eqaul zeen. Nevamind all dis "ism" for INI culture. Roots King. Raspect dat zeen.

[SPANK139]

babylonians were looked down upon by the israelites(not the jews) since of course they were enslaved by king nebuchadnezzar and later the early christians refered to the romans as babylonians becuase they were obviously an imperial force in the middle east when christianity was first beginning..the americans are viewed by many as babylon or babylonians because they are an enslaving imperial force in the world that is based on alot of sickness and evil

[underthebrige25]

most likey they are repeating a prayer

[Jawzer]

anybody know what they are all reciting at the end of the video?

[negativjazz]

[mingtv]

give thanks

[tuxi187]

Men should not look to the babylonians(romans) and use that against christianity . Sunday was the day of worship chosen by babylonians due to their hate for jews who they accuse of killing christ. Any day can be a day of worship but the day of rest is the sabbath which is part of the 10 commandments. The messiah was and is Jesus christ don't let the babylonian instituition today that masks itself as a church let you choose another false messiah

[bentremy]

The babylonians and the romans are and were two different peoples. King Nebuchadnezzar's babylonians of Old Testement times are the people who occupy modern day Iraq.

[tuxi187]

By babylonians i mean the people that propagate the whore of babylon. The romans inherited babylonian ways and are the base of the whore of babylon hence why i call them babylonians.

[tuxi187]

My fellow brother vile men in christianity does not taint the whole faith. true christianity has a lot of men using it as a veil to commit atrocities like slavery and colonialism and racism but they are using God's name in vain. Christinity has some wolves but this should not make you lose faith in God he had nothing to do with the wicked ones . The roman empire took christianity and created something which has the same name but bears a lot of evil in it , the beast .

[haile1]

Yes king. I must hail up a fellow Bajan rasta. Selassie I foriver. Blessed love!

*Empress*

[nanekia]

ya man !! always good to hear someone else spirit and soul .... god bless xoxoxox
