ELECT OF HIMSELF?
BLESSED BE THE KING!
Greetings in the name of YHWH the Most High! How Excellent you are Eternal Father! In this topic, I would like to elaborate on how ones view His Imperial Majesty Emperor Haile Selassie as. They believe that His
Majesty is the Elect of Himself? Yet, the very Ethiopian Constitution doesn't promote no such thoughts. His Imperial Majesty was crowned on November 2nd, 1930, ELECT OF YAH, not Himself, along with the titles, King of Kings, Conquering Lion of Judah, & Light of this World. Let us not mix up these titles, for I know that he came to show us YAHSHUA, & did infact revealed Him to us!
ELECT AND MESSIAH
The words Elect & Messiah do have the same definition, anointed or chosen of Yah. In Hebrew it is Mashiach or Messiah. Elect is the same as Messiah but the same Man Yahshua Ha Mashiach, will return not in a new form but the Same Immortal Body. Every one have erred or sinned but not Yahshua of Nazareth! He was the only One to be born of Miryam(something which many forget about) and is the Son of Yah! Yahshua is the actual Body of Ha Mashiach, while the Royal Family represents Yahshua's Body. Although we have been brainwashed into believing that we will be in a kingdom in the sky. Or pagan days like December 25th(which is not Yahshua's birthday but the sun god mithra), Easter which is a babylonian day of worshipping eggs? I couldn't forget about Miryam and her son, Yahshua! Many compare Yahshua to any regular man. Some believe that He is a prophet or a teacher. Yahshua is not a regular man but the Son of YHWH, His special Messiah!
I don't know what ones believe, but I accept Yahshua Ha Mashiach! He was truly sent by the Father on High! I accept the Father, Son and Holy One. Yahshua is the Son of the Father. " And we beheld his glory, the only Begotten of the Father full of Grace and Truth!" Yahshua is my King! I can't see why ones say that His Majesty is YHWH. They have compared Yahshua Ha Mashiach ways with His Imperial Majesty's. I do see a similarity with Yahshua & His Imperial Majesty, however they are not the Same Person. Which again brings us to the topic of H.I.M. not being Yahshua Ha Mashiach. I will never deny that His Majesty is not a messiah ,(an annointed of YHWH) but not Yahshua! In the Bible, Yah sent many elected kings for Israel. We have Saul, David, Solomon, Rehoboam, Jeroboam - Zedekiah(the Judaic lineage). From the Ethiopic Solomonic Line, by Menelik I the son of King Solomon & Queen Makeda of Sheba, we have Yekuno Amlak, Tewodros, Sahle Selassie, Menelik II, Haile Selassie I, Amha Selassie I, & now Crown Prince Zere Yacob. All except Zera Yacob, have been elected kings of Israel! They were Ha Mashiachan types, Messianic figures. How can ones deny this and read the Bible?
KINGLY CHARACTER OF YAHSHUA REPRESENTED
His Majesty Haile Selassie I represented Yahshua Ha Mashiach in His Kingly Character. Ones might ask, "How did Selassie represent Yahshua'sKingly Character?" Well it is obvious to me that His Majesty embodied the character & Spirit of Yahshua but surely not the glory of Him! The Holy Bible teaches that Yahshua would reveal Himself in a Kingly Character, when He returns again, to reign on the Throne of David, according to the Scofield Reference Bible. H.I.M. Emperor Haile Selassie I, as King of Israel, was a physical example of Yahshua in His Kingly Character. Yet ones need to know that Yahshua is a person different from his Majesty! Infact, it was he who revealed Yahshua as Ha Mashiach. When His Majesty was crowned by His Holiness Abuna Kyrillos on the Coronation, he placed pure oil on his head, which represents the Spirit of Yah! This is a Hebrew tradition of Israel's kings being anointed with oil on their heads. King Saul & David were appointed by the Prophet Samuel . Zadok the Priest anointed King Solomon & Menelik I, & other Kings were annointed by Priests. They are elects of Yah or kristos, but there is only One Messiah, and that is YAHSHUA Let's not confuse this thought!
As the Abuna placed the crown of glory on His Majesty's head, he said," That Elohiym may make this crown a crown of glory." What does this mean? It means that Jah has annointed His Majesty as King, & made this crown a crown of glory. We also heard the Abuna shouting to the people on the Coronation Day, "Blessed be the King of Israel!" So that shows me that His Majesty is King of Israel, not the King of kings. The Title is Elect of Elohiym not Himself. His Majesty was a chosen one of Yah & represented Yahshua Ha Mashiach in His Kingly Character! Some might imply that Yahshua was also called King of Israel, & appointed by Yah like His Majesty, but still there is a difference. Please explain to me why I have heard His Majesty calling Yahshua, Master and King? Is it because He called YHWH His Father too? Or Yahshua praying like His Majesty? Well Yahshua came to show us how to pray to Yah! His Majesty's prayer is different, for it shows me that he is actually giving his heart, soul & mind to Yah! I have seen His Majesty engaging in devotion to Elohiym He is not praying to himself but to YAH. His Majesty is a Messianic King. He showed us to read the Scriptures with a clear conscience, in order to hope for salvation from the MESSIAH! Does this sound like a man who wants to be called the Almighty? He is Elect of Elohiym, a Light of Elohiym, Defender of the Faith, a person having the Mind of Yahshua in him! But he surely isn't Yahshua in the Second Coming.
HIS MAJESTY, A DIVINE KING
H.I.M. Haile Selassie's divinity as King of Israel, I do accept. For all the Kings of Israel are of divine origin. How could ones deny divinity in them also? If they do they are doubting Yah's Will. His Majesty was a godly person, a true man of Yah! The very Ethiopian Constitution shows us this, " By Virtue of the Imperial Blood and the Anointing which he has received, the Person of the Emperor is truly sacred, his Dignity invoilable and his power indisputable! The Emperor's personality was sacred. Read II Peter 1 as reference. "Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of Elohiym, and of Yahshua our Master, according as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust." Divine Nature? His Imperial Majesty was filled with this nature by Jah. The Ethiopian Constitution, shows us that the Emperor was a sacred(holy) person. Even in Dread: the Rastafarians of Jamaica, the author, Rev. Joseph Owens, explains how an Abba saw Haile Selassie as the most spiritual person he ever knew.
Obtain the book for yourself at this site. Rasta His Majesty was a man of Elohiym. There isn't any confusion with me seeing divinity in His Majesty Haile Selassie I. If you look up the word Divine in a dictionary. it means Elohiym-like, not YHWH. Check it for yourself. 1 a : of, relating to, or proceeding directly from God or a god <divine love> b : being a deity <THE divine Savior> c : directed to a deity <divine worship>2 a : supremely good : SUPERB <THE divine> b : HEAVENLY, GODLIKE - di·vine·ly adverb. His Majesty & all the Kings of Israel are of divine nature! Yet although I accept this thought, I praise the ONE that sent Him! For Yah is the DIVINE One, Holy always! We can't deny that Yah's Divinity, can be seen in His instruments like His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I? It is the Power of Yah we can truly feel, for the Father's Spirit is very Strong!
Remember in YAHUDAH is Yah Known, & HE is All Powerful not indispensable, but Everlasting! His Majesty showed us this in the Oriana Fallaci interview. Furthermore, His Majesty has shown us Yah, & is Elohiym-like. Yah bless H.I.M. Haile Selassie I always. He is the Elect of Yah, because no King can be anointed without YAH's Will! YHWH is Father of all, & knows the kings hearts. Therefore, Haile Selassie is only King of Israel! Israel will never be short of a king! No disrespect to anyone because of their views, this is only mine. His Majesty has shown me tolerance, & I do practice it. Although he knew that ones saw Him as Yah, he knows Yah. Yah is very special to His Majesty! I must truly say that he came to show us Yah's ways! H.I.M. Haile Selassie I is Elect of Elohiym, not himself but ELOHIYM. Seen? I hope that this topic has shed some light to you. May the Spirit of YHWH be with each & everyone of you!
H.I. M. Haile Selassie I
Elect of Elohiym
